Lazio manager Stefano Pioli (via Football Italia): "Are Milan in crisis? I don't know, and I don't care. I'm just thinking about the difficulties they'll present in the game tomorrow [Saturday]."
AC Milan manager Filippo Inzaghi (via Football Italia): "Going by the physical tests, we're in the same condition as when we beat Napoli. We know what we have to rediscover. Tomorrow [Saturday], you'll see a team that will be foaming at the mouth. I don't know if that will be enough, but we'll try."
