MILAN: Manager Paulo Fonseca said his Milan team have been working on improving after a poor start to the season and will be ready to face Lazio away on Saturday in Serie A.
The newly appointed 51-year-old is already under pressure after a lacklustre start to the campaign, with a 2-2 draw against Torino in the first game followed by a disappointing 2-1 defeat to newly promoted Parma.
“We are aware that we haven’t started well. But we are all united and we want to find solutions. That’s what we’ve been doing this week,” Fonseca told reporters on Friday.
“We are united so it’s easier to work. It was a good week and I think we understood where we really need to improve. I expect a different Milan tomorrow.”
The Portuguese coach denied that the players were having trouble adapting to his tactical vision, which has particularly left the defence vulnerable.
“I am as confident as I was during my unveiling press conference. I am convinced these two games won’t diminish our ambition to become the team we aim to be,” he said.
