Leonardo unhappy with his defence
The season hasn’t been easy for Leonardo so far this season with his strikers being shot shy at the start of the season, however in recent weeks the goals have started to come only now the defence has started to leak goals.
“It’s true that we have problems in defence. But it’s something we are aware of and we need to improve on,”
Milan were 2-1 down after half an hour at the weekend against Cagliari but fought back to win 4-3 and although Leonardo wasn’t happy with the goals conceded he was very happy with the fight back from his side.
“We have turned around the result quickly and I am happy for that,” Leonardo said.
“All our three strikers have scored against a Cagliari side that had not given away a goal in three games. This team has learned to suffer and overcome adversity quickly.”

Alexandre Pato and Ronaldinho have really began to show their worth in an AC Milan jersey and show their true ability. Pato has shown promise over the past couple of seasons but after the loss of Kaka he needed to step up and has. Ronaldinho similarly has begun to show some of the form that AC Milan bought him to produce.
AC Milan currently lie third in Serie As, seven points behind league leaders Inter Milan, and if they win their Champions League clash tonight with Marseille they will qualify for the next round of the Champions league.

Hull City vs West Ham Highlights
In a compelling game ten-man Hull held on for a point after staging a remarkable fightback against fellow Premier League strugglers West Ham.
The Tigers looked to be heading back into the bottom three as West Ham raced ahead with early goals from Guillermo Franco and Jack Collison at the KC Stadium.
Hull came back when Carlton Cole deflected a Jimmy Bullard free-kick into his own net and the game then turned on its head in the closing two minutes of the first half.
Kamil Zayatte equalized with a powerful volley and Bullard then struck from the penalty spot but the visitors claimed a draw through Manuel da Costa after Bernard Mendy was sent off.
The result was enough to ensure both sides ended the day sitting outside the relegation zone.

Manchester United vs Everton Highlights: EPL Highlights
Darren Fletcher scored a memorable goal as he propelled Manchester United on their way to a comfortable 3-0 victory over Everton.
Although they were already well on top against the Merseysiders who, apart from a brief five-minute second-half flurry were completely outclassed, United were struggling to make the breakthrough until Fletcher fired home a stunning volley.
Michael Carrick and Antonio Valencia were also on target to complete the Red Devils’ biggest win since August and ensure they answered Sir Alex Ferguson’s pre-match call for a more clinical attitude.
