"We expect a Zurich team who will try to give everything at home, but Milan's objective is to go as far as possible," AC Milan Coach Carlo Ancelotti on the eve of UEFA Cup match Zurich - AC Milan

By Anna Italia

Tomorrow is the big day for our AC Milan in Zurich!  Our rossoneri arrived safely and now are properly resting after having dinner. 

         Zurich - AC Milan  

I am including the press conference of AC Milan Carlo Ancelotti on the eve of the UEFA Cup First Round, Second Leg match Zurich - AC Milan.  Guys, I love it. Carletto sounds optimistic and also cautioned because he is not underestimating Zurich. Sure, Milan has the advantage of having won the first leg
MILAN 3 - 1 ZURICH, though in football everything can happen.

Here is what Carlo Ancelotti said in the press conference:

"In tomorrow's match we start from a 3-1 result which is certainly an advantage for us, but we must not underestimate Zurich, because they will put us in difficulty.

It will be a different Milan compared to the first leg, because in the meantime the team has found a lot more balance.

There won't be many changes, also because of the various injuries which prevent us from playing certain players. The most uncertain is Jankulovski, while Dida will start in goal.

For the midfield there is a doubt between Ambrosini and Gattuso and up front between Ronaldinho and Pato.

We expect a Zurich team who will try to give everything at home, but Milan's objective is to go as far as possible in this competition and possibly to win the Uefa Cup, so we want to start by surviving this round."

What surprised you from Ancelotti's statements?  I am still surprised Ancelotti picked DIDA as the starting goalkeeper.  Let's hope Dida is fit
