Overall a much more upbeat, positive and determined press conference:
LIVE MN - Gattuso: "I'm against the withdrawal, but now I see an angry team. Resignation? Word that doesn't exist, I think about the Champions"
Team ready for the last four races? "Tomorrow I believe we will play a vigorous game, only those who have no heart will not be able to do it. We have been five days here and for some it has been difficult, tomorrow I expect a lot".
Lippi's words: "I have already responded to the story of the alibis I create for the players, I will try to improve. I don't think I defended my boys too much, I always said what I think".
Talked to Romagnoli? "Yes, he apologized for the gesture towards the referee and is part of the path that he too must do. He has improved a lot and can still grow".
Gattuso too good? "A different question. Even if we are young, we need to talk, we have to talk about things. Then maybe he has a grudge against it for a few days, but in a group of 27 people you have to behave like that. We're not people who do what they like, there's someone wrong. but then the rest are guys with heads and mentalities. I don't think I was too good, in fact sometimes I broke the boxes too much, but we'll see ".
The seventh current place : "We have thrown away too many points, opportunities that we have wasted. Now we have to believe it, we have lost the fourth place and we will try to go and get it again. Let's find ourselves ready, combative and with the knife between our teeth. "It is regret because we have been fourth for months and we have not managed to manage it."
Could you go to retreat first? "I've never thought about it before, I'm also against retreats. When you work well, you don't need to, I want to get to the day of the game, eat together and go to the camp like in other countries. But there are rules to be respected and it's a decision taken. But I repeat, I am against withdrawals ".
What do you expect for the next races? "The desire to show that we are not dead and the desire to show that we are there. I expect this, we can make up and show our value".
In the words of Mihajlovic : "They must give us strength, this is what they now think of us and we must find the strength and pride to react. Tomorrow we must also remember these words here".
The conditions of Conti : "Yesterday he did the first part of training with us, today he will try to train with the group".
Tried a different form? "Tomorrow we see".
The comparison with the groupthen the rest of the things I read are absurd. But with Leonardo and Maldini there is absolute respect ".
Players too defended? "I am sure the team has not heard of having alibis, they have always given their best, even in the last few races. Now we are these, the results say it. I do not regret everything I said in the season, we have always known how to react, tomorrow I expect that we will return to battle ".
The Bakayoko situation : "Everything is back, he apologized to the team and the same applies to him".
The evenings of the players : "I do not care about the evenings, in private life they do what they want and I am not a policeman, the important thing is that when you work you do things in a certain way. Those times I went out I always amused, but I respected the rules, I worked and nobody could tell me anything. If the players do evenings there is no problem, the important thing is that we work well here ".
Gattuso less convinced of the project? "But which one off? But do you know me? In your opinion, can I be turned off? What does it mean? It is normal that after only 5 points in seven days it is a bit like this ... But do you think I give up? always struggled since I was 17. When I no longer want to stay with my children and my dogs, I will enjoy life. If I had been discharged I would not have gone to the retreat with all the boys. cross, but it is not true that I am soft or resigned, you only say nonsense ".
The names next to Milan's bench : "My only goal is to go to the Champions League, and I have a two-year contract. The word resignation does not exist for me, the rest counts for nothing."
The meeting at Casa Milan : "No decision was made, we only talked about the group and what we could do. We basically repeated what we said in Turin. I read so many nonsense but we only talked about the players".
Mihajlovic's Bologna : "They are fine, since Sinisa has been traveling very fast. They have speed, they have changed their way of playing but I repeat, tomorrow we can still face the strongest team in the world, but we have a duty to have our say, to prove that we are alive with strong evidence ".
Corsa Champions still alive? "Those who play football, those who play sports, know very well that it takes ambition, the pride to hear that music and certain games ... Now we are experiencing a negative period and we need to look for something else, when we enter the tunnel we must analyze everything to understand what works and what doesn't. Who plays in Milan must have this ambition ".
The reasons for the withdrawal : "I did a stuff I didn't want to do, but there are rules to be respected for everyone. In times of difficulty, you need to understand the environment and the shirt you are wearing, I made the choice of retreat because it seemed to me that we all were no longer with our heads. We have been together for four or five days, this has strengthened us, we will see tomorrow ".
The moment of the group : "We trained well, it was a week in which I felt so many inaccuracies and so many wrong things. I took the decision to withdraw and the company supported me, I saw an angry team and we have to prove it in the field. The withdrawal is not the best, but we have a duty to take responsibility for everything ".
The first words of the technician : "Before starting, today is the birthday of Mattia Caldara and we want to wish him well. We are waiting for him with open arms, he is an unlucky boy and we are waiting for him".
