Milan, Gattuso: "I want to keep continuity in the team. I am thankful and privileged that the players are believing in me"

Milan coach Gennaro Gattuso spoke to the media ahead of the rossoneri's Europa League match against Ludogorets on Thursday. The team has improved under the first year boss Gattuso, and Milan will look to take the momentum into the knockout stage match of the tournament. Here are the coach's comments from today's press conference: "We have a lot of respect for Ludogorets, they have more experience than Milan in the Europa league in the past few years. We must respect this opponent, they have speed, which is such a big part of the modern game. Squad turnover? We will see tomorrow, I don't want to say in this moment, we are doing well now and I want to keep some continuity. It's absurd to think about making calculations, the teams in this competition are very strong. We are Milan, we have won a ton over 30 years, we have to live up to our famous jersey, we only thing match to match. We cannot make calculations. For me it is a great privilege to be in this competition. I am living a dream right now, it's exhausting me, I am hardy sleeping and I am happy about what I am doing. I have to thank the players who are doing so much: they believe strongly in my methods."
