Milan, Gattuso: "I feel we are close to breaking through. We regret the missed opportunity to secure fourth place"

The latest result for Milan was more of the same, the rossoneri failed to score a goal in 90 minutes against Frosinone, running their total to 405 minutes without scoring. Milan coach Rino Gattuso analyzed the club's current run of troubling form in an interview with Milan TV: "In times of emergency we are all surprised, playing with enthusiasm and with nothing to lose. We had two matches against Torino and Bologna where we could have created distance with our rivals: when we understand that the points that are up for grabs are more important than usual, all of our flaws come out and the team succumbs to fear. I felt really let down by the first half we played, it seemed that Frosinone were the ones playing for fourth place. We have figured out the defense, now the problem is the attack. Every time we shoot we give the impression of not punishing the opposition. There is a lot of pessimism about our place in the table. We could have had an injection of quality and we didn't do it, but I am breathing an air that I don't like. I am sure that this team will find the route to goal, we will become unstuck in exactly the same way we did in defense after that first match without allowing a goal. I believe we are close. Higuain? He failed to execute an important penalty, received a red card, and the entire world was talking about him. When something like this happens you are left with very little. I want to see the Pipita from the second half of Frosinone again: he was not successful at finishing but I want to see that type of player. Not only him, we are starting to feel the lack of technical players. Suso is playing despite some small problems, Calhanoglu is playing below his ability. Our biggest regret is not having taken advantage of the chance to distance ourself from fifth place and it has sunk us into a bit of a depression."
