Allegri bats away mercato question and reiterates focus on 'lifesaver' objective
"Every game is different. What are the differences compared to the league? Was there any disagreement with the Napoli bench? "What happened was a matter of the pitch. Napoli deserved the win, defending better than us. In the last three games, we've conceded six goals and we need to improve. We need to work on this situation. The match could have changed at the start with an incident for us.""
""We're disappointed, but we have a much bigger goal: to reach the top four. Getting into the Champions League right now is a lifesaver for the club because it allows you to make transfers and bring in money. Elimination must lead to growth for the team. The road to returning to the Champions League won't be easy. There should be anger, but not disappointment.""
AC Milan exited the Supercoppa Italiana at the semi-final stage after a 2-0 defeat to Napoli in Riyadh, with goals from David Neres and Rasmus Hojlund. Several players including Koni De Winter, Ardon Jashari, Pervis Estupinan and Christopher Nkunku struggled during the match, prompting media scrutiny of the summer transfer window and speculation about needs for a striker and central defender. Allegri attributed the result partly to the pitch and Napoli's superior defending, highlighted the concession of six goals in three games, insisted transfer talk was pointless now, and emphasised rebuilding a solid defence to secure a top-four finish.
