Question:
Carlo Ancelotti confronted a number of themes at the Milanello press conference. Number one was the number one, Dida: 'There are periods which are less brilliant for players, goalkeepers included. It’s a situation that will pass, for all he has done over these years some errors can happen, it’s not a problem.' There were a lot of questions about the situation within the team at the start of the season and the coach said: 'Not a lot has been said, I know the atmosphere in which I work, I know the players well, I haven’t seen any great problems, we just have to start playing well and win some games.' On the existence of a psychological difference between Milan and the other top sides, Ancelotti is relaxed: 'We know we will come up against Juve and Inter but Milan certainly don’t feel inferior. I would say Milan are on par with them and we’ll show that during the long campaign. Cassano? I am pleased for him and Roma that an agreement has been found which is also key for Italy.' The boss has no doubts about Rino Gattuso: 'We accepted the bench well at Ascoli. He said that if Del Piero can start on the bench then so could he. As for president Berlusconi on the bench, it’s clear that the finals minutes of a game are the most delicate, above all, when the game is balanced. I agree with him when he said that we must keep and manage the ball better.'
