Milan Coach Massimiliano Allegri Is Like Fabio Capello - Adriano Galliani

Galliani expects Allegri to deliver the goods, just like Capello did.
Adriano Galliani has used Fabio Capello's clockwork brilliance as the touchstone with which to measure Massimiliano Allegri at Milan.

And if Allegri can emulate the abundant wealth of success delivered by the now England coach, then Milan can look forward to some good times moving ahead.

"If players with determined characteristics have arrived then it's because our coach wanted them," Galliani told the press.

"For many aspects he is similar to Capello, and I am trying to support him. There is total understanding with Allegri."

Galliani assured Milan will be able to maintain the bright outlook, despite a haze of injury problems.

"I have spoken with the medical staff and Allegri. I expect a relation. We have many players injured, but we also have youth and new arrivals, and so we hope to maintain the pace," he said.
