Ex-Milan star Savicevic: 'Higuain better than Icardi'
"We will see what happens in the derby. I like Milan, they play good football and are growing. Higuain started to score, Suso assists. They have a good understanding," he told the Italian paper.
"The derby is unpredictable, as always, anything can happen. Spalletti? He is a great coach but started off with a crisis of results as well as gameplay. Then he got back on his feet.
"Icardi or Higuain? They are two different types of attackers. I prefer Higuain because he participates in the game more, assists his teammates and improves the whole group. Icardi is a great finisher, but it is the team that has to put itself at his service.
"Suso? He is a complete footballer. He has everything to become a great player. Calhanoglu's number 10? For me, the number mattered little. When I started playing I did not think about it anymore.
"Gattuso is working well, but for a coach the results matter. The defence has conceded a goal in 13 Serie A matches in a row. My Milan impossible to score against? It was a different kind of football and we had perhaps the strongest defence in football history with Tassotti, Baresi, Costacurta and Maldini," Savicevic concluded.
