Towards the meeting with Roma, Allegri speaks: Key moment of the season, our objectives are clear

Milan coach Max Allegri appeared in a press conference before the match against Roma.

"The owners' visit was a great pleasure for everyone. It is a key moment of the season, as we are playing for our ultimate goal: qualifying for the Champions League. We have to focus on the pitch. Tomorrow we will face a team that is fighting with us for the top four. Gasperini is doing a great job. Roma have become a team that reflects their coach on the pitch: they are aggressive, very good in both phases of the game and have the best defense in Serie A. We have to be very good, knowing that a great atmosphere awaits us. We will have to play a very technical match", declared the Rossoneri coach in a press conference.

Regarding the injuries, Allegri explained: "Saelemaekers was much better yesterday, I will evaluate today whether to activate him as a starter or on the bench. Leao is still facing some small problems, but he will be available. The same goes for Fullkrug. Gimenez? He will be an important resource for the last part of the season." As for the Portuguese, "there is a little inflammation in his adductor/pubic muscle. It is minimal pain, it is a little annoying, he knows how big it is. Continuity? He has grown and needs to grow further. He does not lack talent, he still needs to find consistency in his performances. But it is almost impossible to find a talented player who can play continuously for ninety minutes."

The coach then spoke about his opponents, stating that "Roma is no surprise. Dybala? I had the pleasure of training Paulo, he came to Juve as a child. He has exceptional technique, he is very intelligent. In the Europa League he made a pass that seemed easy, but between the control and the pass there was not even half a second. He has important qualities, there are not many like him around. With Malen he could have an advantage because with a reference point in front he can make his plays."

Regarding the fight for fourth place, Allegri added: "There are four teams for three places, Inter have a projection of 90 points. Let's hope that the teams in Europe go as far as possible so that there are five places in the Champions League, otherwise one will be left out."
