Massimo Ambrosini: Milan Needed To Play Straight Away After Derby


The skipper says that the Rossoneri have been suffering ever since their humiliation in the Milan derby.
Milan midfielder Massimo Ambrosini, who just extended his contract with the club until 2009, believes that the two-week break has done more harm than good for the team.Ambrosini would have preferred to jump straight into action following the 4-0 hammering at the hands of Inter in order to try to silence the critics, but 15 days without club football has not helped at all."With regards to the derby, the problem is that we have been 15 days without playing,” explained the Rossoneri’s captain to Milan Channel.“If there were few days after the derby until the next game, we would have had straight away the chance to redeem ourselves. With the break, we carried forward this result for 15 days and we still carry it.“In any case, we have worked well, even though it's always particular to train without many players, like in every national team break. We remain optimistic, like before Siena and after Siena. We need, like in everything, the right balance to evaluate the situations.”Milan will now visit Livorno on Saturday as they try to get back on the winning track and keep themselves within touching distance of the teams at the top of the table in this early part of the season.
