During an interview given to the microphones of the "Gazzetta dello Sport", former Milan goalkeeper Nelson Dida, among other topics, dwelt on the moment Paulo Fonseca’s team is experiencing and the Rossoneri’s chances of getting back into the race for the Scudetto. In addition, the former Brazilian extreme defender also dwelt on the future of Mike Maignan.

"With Empoli è it was an important performance, in a start of the season with ups and downs. I seem to see more confidence and greater communication between the coaching staff and the players. I hope that this growth will go on and that the results will be better and better" began the former Rossoneri goalkeeper.

"Now è it is useless to look at the standings, we need to think game by game, point by point. It's necessary to find that continuity of performance that has been lacking so far, but in this aspect I am optimistic. The defensive phase is growing and Milan will return to the top and will also be a protagonist in the Champions League and Coppa Italia. Napoli and Inter are the strongest, although I imagine a very balanced championship. The Rossoneri have lost some points on the road, but I am optimistic and I am sure that slowly they will be back near the top" continued the former Brazilian extreme defender.

"If Rafa stays on the piece and smiles he canò really make a difference. For the team è a key player and è it is important that he feels confidence in him. Reijnders è a great midfielder, one of the best around. He does everything well and is making a nice contribution in the scoring phase as well. About Mike I have never had any doubts and I am convinced that he will become the strongest in the world. Between the posts è very strong and Fonseca’s game also enhances his ability with his feet. He has to stay. AC Milan cannotò afford to lose him" added the 1973 class.

"The match with Atalanta will be crucial to confirm that the team è growing. I continue to cheer for Milan to get far. Against the Dea will beà tough, but I have confidence" commented Nelson Dida.
