AC Milan Should Target Manchester United's Javier "Chicharito" Hernandez
AC Milan manager Clarence Seedorf has no interests in discussing his future with AC Milan. The Dutchman, however, isn't shy to point out that the club has improved under his guidance (h/t to Goal). "I don't know [if I will be replaced]. You'd have to talk to the club. I can't speak for others," Seedorf said.
"I want to respect the personal situation of president [Silvio] Berlusconi and so we haven't spoken much. Until the club says otherwise, I will continue on this path, trying to help improve the side and its results and looking to plan for next season," he added.
"We're growing and we're getting to know each other better. Things don't just happen out of nothing. They take time to create. We'll continue with this intensity and approach."
Will it be enough intensity, however, to extend Milan's winning streak to six? Tell us @SportsWN
Tactical Preview
Player to Watch: Miralem Pjanic's ability to diversify his abilities has been a tremendous asset for AS Roma. The 24-year-old has featured in a central defensive role and as an attacker on the left side of the club's formation. Projected to start as a left midfielder, look for him to add to five goals and six assists this afternoon.
AS Roma's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Sanctis; Dodo, Castan, Toiol, Maicon; Pjanic, Rossi, Nainggaion; Llajic, Totti, Gervinho
AC Milan's Projected Lineup (4-3-3): Abbiati; Bonera, Mexes, Rami, Abate; Montolivo, Muntari; Honda, Kaka, Taarabt; Balotelli
