"That of Cagliari, for 20 minutes, was one of the worst defensive games since I coached Milan, something that should make us think". The day after Rino Gattuso, after the 1-1 of his Milan at Sardinia Arena against the team of Maran, is perhaps even harder than the immediate post game: interviewed by Milan TV, the Milan coach returns to the defects that the game on Sunday evening he highlighted, defects on which he will have to work already starting from the Europa League challenge at Dudelange, scheduled for Thursday in Luxembourg.
"Today I saw a lot of disappointment among the players - says Gattuso - but we must continue to work and needed to think about it before: when you start like ours in Cagliari, sometimes you can do well.It happened to us, but we can not do anymore a departure like that, it was not a good sight ".
"We knew we were going to play in a basin, Cagliari this year is a team that comes to make a high pressure, go looking for Pavoletti.The biggest regret is that we seemed surprised, so there is so much disappointment.
There may be a team for 20-25 minutes to give pressure, but we can not give the feeling of not reacting, of risking complicating the game - said Gattuso - then we reacted, we could do something more, but it is from To start a 100% team we need to immediately get rid of these points that are not working, we have to improve what we can do, be even less beautiful for 10-15 minutes, talk more, be compact and do not give feeling like going ".
"We must not only load Higuain but the whole environment, we must be the ones to charge, we are 30 players, as well as 30-40 people who work closely together, can not be just a single person. I like to see angry and sad faces, we have to understand what jersey we wear, what society we are and what it means to read the matches, giving a clear signal when we go on the pitch ".
Meanwhile, Gattuso breathes a sigh of relief for Hakan Calhanoglu: the Turkish did not report any fracture to the finger as it was initially thought after the match of the Sardinia Arena, but only a strong bruise. First tests comforting also for Mateo Musacchio, who had been subjected to checks on Sunday after a blow to the head: the exams have not highlighted trauma, even if the Argentine plant will be evaluated in recent days with further tests.
