Allegri says Milan cannot rush things against Genoa: "There's obviously pressure"

"Modric is back. Is he fully available? "Yesterday he trained with the team. He had a bad injury so no one expected it. He's available today, we will see if we can play him.""

"Are you feeling the pressure? "When you play for certain targets, there's obviously pressure. The only thing we have to do today is not be anxious or in a hurry to win the game, because lately, especially in the first half, we have been doing poorly and conceding goals too easily.""

"Speaking to DAZN just a few minutes ago, as transcribed by MilanNews, Allegri stressed that Milan need to play their own game rather than rushing things. He also confirmed that we could see Luka Modric off the bench."

"How did you manage the week with the team? "We have been working hard. It's normal for these to be important moments in the season. Today is an important match, and we will try to do well, putting in a good performance and getting a good result.""

Milan face Genoa-Milan with the need to respond after a poor run. Pressure exists due to season targets and the risk of dropping out of the top four. Allegri emphasizes that Milan should not be anxious or in a hurry to win, especially because recent first halves have been weak and goals conceded too easily. He says the team has worked hard during the week and aims for a strong performance and a good result. Allegri confirms Luka Modric trained with the team after a bad injury and is available, with his use depending on whether he can play. He also indicates five changes from the Atalanta defeat, including Ardon Jashari and Zachary Athekame replacing suspended Alexis Saelemaekers.
