Allegri explained, "When the players come out late in the result is not positive at all, but the delay difference of one goal against Barcelona until 83 minutes (when Lionel Messi scored the third goal) is very positive."

On the decision not to push striker Mario Balotelli essential "Since the last stop (for the league) to give way for players to participate with their national teams subjected to injuries, and did not run a lot of games, and night I put my trust in a leg. Team in the first half gave a good performance."

He continued, "Mario is a very important player, but he is still upgrading because we expect a lot from him."

Milan trying to get out of the current crisis at the expense of Barcelona

Milan entered the stage of unbalance after a bad start to the local season made it delayed 19 points behind leaders Roma football Serie A and make just three points above the drop zone to play in the hospitality of Barcelona in the Champions League on Wednesday.

Milan is no longer able largely to compete with the rest of the local clubs that seem to outgrow it with regard to youth programs and talent and club management techniques.

Over the last 18 months, Milan conducted numerous changes, but almost did not develop despite attempts by Coach Massimiliano Allegri.

Milan began suffering at the end of the 2011-2012 seasons when it decided to reduce its debt and sold the dangerous striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic and a strong defender Thiago Silva to Paris St Germain.

Milan also left the duo experience component of defender Alessandro Nesta, midfielder Gennaro Gattuso.

Milan pursued a policy search for young talent and develops, although the club forgot to inform it to the fans, which kept high expectations about what can be achieved by the team.

Barbara Berlusconi Milan director and the daughter of club president Silvio Berlusconi said in December last year in reference to Stefan Hubert as examples “we can transform young players to the senior heroes at the club."

Last season, AC Milan benefited from recording a set of goals near the end and some of arbitral awards and the brilliance of Mario Balotelli for a period after his contract and a bad case appeared to have ended after the third place with difficulty and to qualify for the Champions League.

And the enthusiastic masses of fans supported coach Allegri "project" to announce the support of the coach after reports of Berlusconi, the club president's desire to dispense with him.

Despite this policy changed again in Milan last summer, instead of contracting with young players the team resorted to players in the middle or near the end of football careers.

Milan spent 11 million euros on the annexation of Alessandro Matri who has a good track record in achieving targets, but a 29-year-old also has contracted with Slovenian Walter Persa from Genoa on a free transfer.

Milan regained efforts to injury-plagued midfielder Kaka (31 years) after he spent four unsuccessful years at Real Madrid the Brazilian suffered a new injury in his first game with the team.

Milan took a decision to allow strange prominent team players Kevin-Prince Boateng to leave to Schalke two days after the success in registering two goals for the team in front of PSV Eindhoven in the Champions League qualifiers.

Gattuso criticized his former club not to spend more money in the transfer market saying in a television interview, "We must spend a lot in order to build a strong team. Currently investments are few. Clubs Roma and Napoli and Juventus Excel on AC Milan because they spent a lot on new contracts."

In fact, Milan spent 27 million euros in the summer, according to the Transfer Market site specializing in player transfers which is less narrowly Juventus and inters the season.

It seemed that the other clubs spend money more wisely, where Roma contracted with Kevin Strautaman and Mehdi Benatia team benefited a lot of them, also Naples managed to compensate for the departure of Cavani by Real Madrid trio players Jose Callejon, and Gonzalo Higuain and Raul Albiol.

And the defeat of AC Milan 2 - zero in front of Fiorentina caused, which is also ahead in the standings in the reports of Barbara Berlusconi's desire to dispense with chief executive Adriano Galliani, who has held office since long before the president's daughter denies this.

Barbara said, "I did not ask Galliani departure. In many calls that I had with my father after the loss to Fiorentina called simply the need to make changes in the policy of Milan."

Galliani spoke after the loss and confirmed its support for the coach Allegri, saying "This week is not crucial to the fate of the coach. Have confidence in it."

Mourinho Life with Chelsea Has become easiest and best

After a bad start after returning to Chelsea life has become better as a surprise for Coach Jose Mourinho and his team approached to the leader of the Premier League football Arsenal.

Chelsea can rise to the top of the standings for a few hours at least if defeated on the ground Newcastle United on Saturday after qualifying for the quarter-finals of the League Cup in midweek by defeating 2 - zero away to Arsenal.

And winning 13 points from 15 and the emergence of striker Fernando Torres in a new way and the existence of choices in all the centers and the recovery of all the injured players seems that Chelsea forward strides.

However, the level of the players causes a headache for Mourinho, especially when it comes to a choice between those who sit on the bench or who will be excluded from a game completely.

Mourinho Said, who received a reminder of the capabilities of Juan Mata in the middle of the week, when he presented the Spaniard who has not played a key this season , a great performance against Arsenal "It is not easy for me to leave players out of the squad or on the bench because everyone deserves to play . "

He said in a press conference, “I am not just with players who are not chosen because they are doing their best in order to play.”

In front of Mourinho a full range to choose from a list of Saturday's game which does not have good memories.

Mourinho said "We have one of the toughest games in the entire season in the St James' Park stadium, but we want to try and continue to victories.”

He added, “October was fantastic for us but to be first or not at this moment the one-point or two points which is important."

"Of course it is better to be the first more than to be a fifth  ... this is obvious but it is not a problem for us now."

The Torres development in Chelsea reflects, and his presentation was against Manchester City in the previous round - when he scored the winning goal near the end, making the first goal - it is better for him almost since joining for 50 million pounds ($ 80.3 million) from Liverpool in 2011.

Mourinho said, "I feel that it is doing his best in every game."
