GdS: Ibrahimovic honest about Milan squad and Leao after Udinese loss

By Oliver Fisher -

Zlatan Ibrahimovic had some rather strong words about the current AC Milan squad after last night’s defeat against Udinese at the Dacia Arena.

Today’s edition of La Gazzetta dello Sport (via PianetaMilan) focuses on Ibrahimovic after he made history last night by becoming the oldest ever scorer for Milan and also in Serie A thanks to a spot kick that he retook having seen the first effort saved.

The Swede has therefore surpassed the previous record which belonged to Alessandro Costacurta who also scored at the age of 41, but it was not a night that he will remember fondly when it comes to the result as the Rossoneri ended up losing 3-1.

The paper recalls that comments from Ibrahimovic after the game in which he made a rather honest admission about the mentality of the team at the moment and their inconsistencies.

“I’m proud to enter the history of this club even if I prefer to feel young. However, this team has no experience to play as a champion, that’s why ups and downs come,” he said.

“If I’m fine I want to continue, I can do even more. I’ve suffered too much in these 14 months and now I want to get my revenge. I’m fine here, then it depends on what they’re looking for, what idea they have. I’m available and I’m in no hurry. And I respect the decision to exclude me from the Champions League, I wasn’t feeling well.”

He also added a thought on Leao: “He doesn’t seem happy at the moment and has a lot of pressure. But compared to a year ago he is even stronger.”

  1. If I have the opportunity to advice the management,Below is my advice:
    Sell useless Failure leao,demote malick thiaw to team B,bench tomori,sack balo you’re,kalulu is an average player,sell saladmaker,bennacer is an average player,terminate tatarasumu contract,don’t renew Ibrahim Diaz contract,loan out dekatalaraz,Maignan is an excellent keeper he need qualify deputy,Theo is an awesome guy,Geroud should not be over used,Zlatan should resign,messia is an average player.
    Finally,make sure to buy quality players during the transfer window instead of finding cheap and inexperienced player

  2. Kick Maldini out, then we might stand a chance of signing better players, terminate Pioli contract.then Milan can build a new team.

  3. STRONG WORDS BUT VERY TRUE. I agree 100%.
    Bravo IBRA.
    I said that Pioli should ha been replaced whe Milan lost to Torino I n the cup game. A group of fans called me all the possible dirt name. Now regrettably they see what is happening
