Gennaro Gattuso: Milan Are As Strong As Inter


Ringhio is eager to have his say when the two Milanese giants lock horns on Saturday night...

Milan midfielder Gennaro Gattuso doesn't believe Inter are stronger than his side as he looks ahead to Saturday night's derby della Madonnina showdown.The Rossoneri go into the game in good spirits as they are in front of their bitter rivals in the standings - something that has not happened since May 2006, before Calciopoli.Gattuso feels the champions are not superior, but he cannot pick a winner."Inter and Juventus are like battleships, but we are there to play for it. We are up there also, and we have to live day by day," Gattuso told Il Corriere Della Sera."The derby does not have rules. Just because we are ahead in the league, it doesn't mean anything."If you lose the derby on the second day of term then it can have a mental effect on the team. I would have preferred the derby to come later in the season."
