'A few players will rest tomorrow, a few others will come in later, in any case there will be a competitive team," AC Milan Coach Carlo Ancelotti on the UEFA Cup Match Group Stage E PORTSMOUTH - AC MILAN

By Anna Italia

                                  Portsmouth - AC Milan
The only thing I expect from Milan is to win this match, period.  I don't want any defeat or draw.  As a  fan, I join the millions of Milan fans asking to see the Rossoneri winning like champions and consistently. It means winning with more than one goal and playing well. I am already tired of the constant rollercoaster.  So, come on Milan!!!!!

MILAN - Here are the declarations made by Milan coach Carlo Ancelotti during the press conference which was held at the Fratton Park stadium ahead of the Uefa Cup match Portsmouth-Milan before the team's afternoon training session:

THE MATCH AGAINST PORTSMOUTH

"We have come here to get at least a point to qualify. We don't know this team very well, we have studied them during the week. But we do know Crouch, who has good qualities. It's a particular stadium, a classic English stadium, but the ground is good, it could be a good game.
A few players will rest tomorrow, a few others will come in later, in any case there will be a competitive team.

We are happy to be here, even though we have been in bigger stadiums. For us nothing changes because it's a pleasure for us to be here to make new experiences."

ANDRIY SHEVCHENKO

"Andriy has paid for the two years in which he played little. When he came to us he worked a lot and now he has found a good condition. Tomorrow I think we can play well. At Chelsea he suffered from the fact that they play with just one striker, Drogba, and two wingers. And he certainly isn't a winger. He was paid for what he was worth at the time, he was one of the strongest strikers in the world, then it's true, his performances did not live up to expectations."

RONALDINHO and  RICKY KAKA'

"Ronaldinho is doing well, but tomorrow he won't start, but Kaká will be there. Kaká is the symbol of this Milan, he could not be anywhere else."
