Milan, Gattuso: "We shouldn't get too excited about third place, we have to improve"

Despite getting a clutch win against Sassuolo and climbing to third place ahead of Inter, Milan coach Gennaro Gattuso doesn't seem too satisfied with his team: "I'll take this result, as the other ones with Lazio and Empoli, but we have to do better - Gattuso said to Sky Sport - I don't want to hear about fatigue, we need to understand why we struggle to play like we want to. We struggled against an organised team, a team that plays good football. We did well defensively, but we have to do better when we are in possession".

"Now we will have 12 finals to play. Nobody should get too excited yet, because if we keep playing like this we will struggle to get wins. What we're doing is not enough. It's no surprise that some players are playing below their standard, they spent a lot of their energy during this season, but that should not be an excuse. We shouldn't get complacent because we don't concede, we are chaotic when attacking. The defence? Everybody played well. Apart from Boga's attempt that hit the post we didn't suffer that much. But if we take our last three games into account, we have to do better technically. Calabria? He improved a lot, he must keep it going, with passion and desire", Gattuso concluded.
