AC Milan's midfielder, Tommaso Pobega, spoke to SportMediaset on the eve of the Coppa Italia match against Turin. These are his statements:
"It has been confirmed several times by the coach, by Maldini, by the captain that we want to be competitive in every competition and the goal is to win at least one competition, bring home a trophy to continue on the path and improve in mentality and approach to all the competitions we face."
On how AC Milan - AS Roma game ended...
"Rather than wondering what happened, we immediately tried to analyse it the next day, we had a video session with the coach in which we went to see what details could be improved because all in all, it was a dominated match, played very well, in which maybe there was some carelessness, some small mistakes that punished us."
Pobega on his goal against AS Roma:
"Let's say I've been missing a goal in Serie A for a long time, it was nice to do it under the Curva Sud. It was a really nice moment to celebrate with them, then there was some regret because it didn't help to bring home the three points, but I have to keep working on and try to improve too."
On going forward to help in the attac, how much do you feel as a spare striker at this moment, given the many unavailable players right now...
"Due to my characteristics, I'm someone who always tends to accompany the action in the offensive phase", said Pobega, "Sometimes you can get lucky, the ball can land in the right way, there are myriads of variables."
