Stefano Pioli explains what he expects from Divock Origi and the other Milan players given a chance against Cremonese this evening. ‘I saw the right attitude.’
It kicks off at San Siro at 20.00 UK time (19.00 GMT).
You can follow all the build-up and action as it happens from today’s eight Serie A games on the LIVEBLOG.
“We need to play well, because Cremonese are alive, dynamic and intense, so we have to be on it in terms of technique, tactics and attitude,” Pioli told DAZN.
Origi starts this evening and there is no denying his debut Serie A season has been disappointing, so he hopes to break that drought this evening.
“Naturally, a striker wants to score goals and plays to get goals, but the whole team needs to get involved in the attacking moves and be more unpredictable to create those chances and put our forwards in a condition to give their best.”
Charles De Ketelaere also starts and is still looking for his first goal in the Milan jersey.
“I expect a good performance from everyone today, as I saw good things in training, I saw the right attitude, the right movements and we are Milan, so we have to win these games.”
The Rossoneri are rotating the squad, as they have massive games coming up against Lazio in Serie A and Inter in the Champions League semi-final.
