Milan, Stefano Pioli: “There is discouragement. In three games the final balance sheet”

Judgment on the season suspended until the end of the season. Milan coach Stefano Pioli makes an appeal to the Rossoneri after the Champions League defeat to Inter: it is crucial to finish the season well in order to qualify for the next edition of Europe’s top competition.

“We are behind in the league compared to where we want to be, we need concentration. Needless to say, we want to win all three of them, tomorrow is the first one and we have a chance to show what we are. Fortunately, the season is not over after the derby,” he said on the eve of the match against Sampdoria.

The atmosphere is not the best: “There is discouragement and disappointment, it took us time to recover but we have to react as a great team. Going back to the Champions League is the goal, but the balance should be suspended because going to the Champions League is really too important for us.”

On the criticism against him Pioli also preferred to gloss over: “The choices that have been made have been shared with the management to improve us. At the end of the season we will talk to understand what worked and what didn’t, we will certainly try to remedy what went wrong. Now let’s think about the next three games.”
