Moggi : It's Okay to Rely on Zlatan Ibrahimovic

Despite growing criticism of Milan dependability on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Luciano Moggi stated that Allegri has made the right decision by relying on him.

Moggi said, "I want to compliment Allegri in the sense that he has put aside his own tactical ideas and spectacular football to put all his faith in the player that makes the difference - Ibrahimovic"

Okay Mr. Moggi, Allegri decision maybe right. But now even Ibra himself stated that he's getting tired. Don't want him to get injured, do we?

Allegri: Zlatan-dependent is a Dilemma

Mr. Allegri admits their reliance on Zlatan Ibrahimovic is becoming a dilemma.

The Swede was again on the scoresheet in their Champions League victory over Auxerre.

“It would be tricky without Ibrahimovic, as we don’t have someone of the same characteristics, ” confessed Allegri. “We could play Ronaldinho and Robinho together for a side with great technique, but less physical presence.

“This qualification gives us strength and it is an important night for us. I am also very glad that we kept a clean sheet for the third time.

“We are solid, don’t allow our opponents much and create at least four or five clear-cut chances per game. ”.

Zlatan is in good performance. Way too good. Let just hope nothing bad happened to him Mr. Allegri!
Meanwhile, how about give him some rest and try Ronaldo - Robinho pair?

Ibra Glad Ronnie is Back

Zlatan Ibrahimovic was delighted for Ronaldinho after they both scored in their Champions League victory over Auxerre.

Ibrahimovic admits he was exhausted by the end of the Auxerre match and hailed teammate Ronaldinho.

“We tried to score throughout this difficult game and Auxerre were aggressive, but at the end we won 2-0,” said the Milan hitman.

“I scored a great goal and the team did well, so now we can relax for the final match.

“I was very tired at the end and was making too many mistakes, so I asked to be substituted. Ronaldinho came on and scored, so it all worked out.”

Ronaldinho has been benched for the last five games on the trot in all competition, but made an impact in only five minutes on the field.

“The whole team is very happy for Ronaldinho. He isn’t playing much, but he works hard in training and we are all behind him.”

AC Milan chief Galliani will not rule out January striker signing

AC Milan vice-president Adriano Galliani cannot rule out making a big name striker signing in January.
There are some concerns over how much Milan rely on Zlatan Ibrahimovic, especially as he is complaining of exhaustion.

Galliani said: “I don’t like to say we are dependent on Ibrahimovic. Unfortunately Pippo Inzaghi’s out for the season, now we have four strikers instead of five, but we’ll only move on the market if there is a huge opportunity. I don’t see one, so we’ll 95 per cent stay the same.”

Zlatan Ibrahimovic: Milan Are Getting Stronger

"We are always stronger and it was important to qualify with a game in hand," he told Sky Sport Italia.

Allegri Delighted with Milan Progress

As Milan thanked a moment of magic from Zlatan Ibrahimovic following the 1-0 victory over Fiorentina, coach Massimiliano Allegri praised the Rossoneri’s unity as the key to securing all three points.


“We secured a suffered victory this evening,” he declared to SkySport.

“This victory is an important sign of the unity within the side. We have reached a mental balance that is also evident in training during the week.

“Such a balance eventually pays dividends and of course when you have a player such as Ibrahimovic it is much easier to break open the deadlock. He scored a wonderful goal and is proving to be a fundamental part of our winning make-up.

“I am happy for the entire squad tonight however, as I saw some important performances from a number of players. [Daniele] Bonera for example did a wonderful job down the right and merit must be paid to the boys at the back who rolled up their sleeves and battled when the visitors looked to come back at us.”






Glad to have us back on winning tracks Mr. Allegri!


Just don't keep Dinho on the bench for too long!
