“We must be worried by the results and the performance. We knew it could be tricky, as Udinese don't let you get a rhythm going," Milan manager Stefano Pioli said after his side's loss to Udinese.
 
"But the whole performance was just not up to our standards. Now this must give us the motivation to push forward and do much better in many situations. 
 
"We know there is only one result we can afford and we need a great game in every area, technical, tactical and physical. After a disappointment like this, perhaps it is better to prepare for a fixture like that," he added.
 
“We must do much better, it is only fair that the fans jeer and especially that they jeer me, because this was not the performance we wanted."
