After the victory against Genoa in Serie A, AC Milan head coach Stefano Pioli has given an interview to Milan TV. Here are his statements:
On the game:
"I believe that continuity was our strong point, but we wasted too much. In the second half 3-4 starts were certainly developed differently. What matters, however, it is the victory, and we did it with the right desire. Now let's think about the next match against Sassuolo which will be difficult. "
On the message to the other teams:
"It is true that we must give the messages to ourselves, but it is also true that last weekend we won and everyone else won. We have our important characteristics and we must do well".
On Mandzukic:
"He has done well, he is a leader from the point of view of character, of desire and he is a strong and reliable player. Of course we are sorry for what he did not give before, but now he is recovering. Now what counts. we can do it from Wednesday onwards".
On injuries:
"Unfortunately, you always pay for injuries. The team did well on the pitch and interpreted the game well, even if we risked something."
On Leao:
"We have to expect a lot from someone with so much talent, he moved well but badly controlled the ball in front of goal. He was not served much, but he certainly has the chance to improve".
