Filippo Inzaghi has warned that his Milan side will face one of the best defences in the League when they meet Torino tomorrow night.

The Rossoneri travel to Turin to take on the Granata following a disappointing home defeat to Sassuolo on Tuesday, and the Coach believes they face another tough test.

“We need to win,” Inzaghi declared in his Press conference ahead of the game.

“We’re judged on every game, but I have to be more rational and always pay attention to everything.

Filippo Inzaghi has warned that his Milan side will face one of the best defences in the League when they meet Torino tomorrow night.

The Rossoneri travel to Turin to take on the Granata following a disappointing home defeat to Sassuolo on Tuesday, and the Coach believes they face another tough test.

“We need to win,” Inzaghi declared in his Press conference ahead of the game.

“We’re judged on every game, but I have to be more rational and always pay attention to everything.

“It’s easy to prepare for big games, but against Sassuolo we lacked the ruthlessness which can only come from inside ourselves.

“We have to pick up some points.

“Everyone has ups and downs, you see that with Napoli and Fiorentina who have had the same Coach for years. I don’t have a magic wand to solve all our problems.

“I want to get to a consistent level as soon as possible. I’ll be satisfied in May if I got the best out of the players.

“We all know what Torino bring. They’re well organised, and their weapon is the counter-attack.

“We’ll have to play well to cope with them, they have one of the best defences in the League. It will be hard to break them down when they’re sitting in.”

The Coach had earlier expressed similar sentiments in an interview with Milan Channel, in a quick chat before his Press conference.

“It’s a difficult game, they defend well and counter-attack quickly with the full-backs. After a defeat, the best way to rebound is to play again straight away.

“I hope we’ve prepared in the right way, I’m convinced we’ll play a great game.”

Inzaghi’s also discussed Tuesday’s defeat, and his side’s vulnerability from set pieces.

“I wasn’t depressed after that game,” Inzaghi told journalists of the Sassuolo defeat.

“I’ve always said I’d prefer to lose matches where the opposition goalkeeper is the best player on the park.

“Tomorrow will be a good test. We have to be more attentive, as we lost a goal from a corner against us. We have to be smarter and more cynical on the pitch.

“We’ve been conceding those types of goals for a long time, corners were always a limitation of ours. The same applies to goals from throw-ins.

“I can’t explain why for 10 years Milan have been conceding goals from set pieces. I don’t know if it’s a problem with the team, the setup or we don’t have enough height.

“In recent games we’ve been too naive, I can’t coach that. Hopefully we’ve realised you can’t concede from corners, hopefully it doesn’t happen again.

“I think there have been games where we’ve played worse, I was very critical because I was disappointed, we could easily have won, it was in our hands.

“With more concentration and ruthlessness we’d have gotten a second goal. Their goal made us nervous, we had a lot of chances in the second half.”

The Rossoneri will have an immediate chance for revenge when they face Sassuolo again in the Coppa Italia on Tuesday, but Inzaghi is only thinking about Torino for now.

“We look forward to playing Sassuolo, and addressing what happened last time,” the Coach admitted.

“For one thing, it’s a competition we care a lot about.

“Now the priority is the match with Torino, who can cause problems for anyone. We’re ready.”
