"Is Milan the strongest team in Serie A? The championship is long and Milan is dependent on Ibrahimovic. We are more organised and we can score goals with many different players. The team is improving in the defense comparing to the start of the season and it has digested the new tactic by Del Neri. However, most importantly, we found again our motivation, our winning mentality that was missing in recent times".

Juventus general manager, Beppe Marotta, challenged Milan and promised that Juventus will compete with them until the end of the season: "We want to win, but we need to be patient. With Andrea Agnelli's arrival the club started a restructuring phase, which is never easy. Our tradition and history are forcing us to do all our best to win. For sure, a strong team needs a strong club, and our president is highly competent".
