Chik: Pulisic is now a top player, Modric controls everything around him on the court
In the Milan team, Chik is a player with all-rounders. In an interview with CBS Sports, he talked about several topics about his career.
Regarding my current situation
I feel that everyone is more confident in me now. Tare said I am one of the most comprehensive players in Europe and Allegri mentions me at every press conference. Allegri brought huge energy to the team, and we were very united on the court and didn't want to concede the ball. Our goal for the season is to score goals and not concede, which gives us a greater chance of winning because we have great strength. If we can maintain this defensive solidity, there will be a great chance to win games in the future, and I believe you have seen that.
Regarding the integration in Milan
To be honest, I didn't know what I would expect when I left Chelsea. After all, I have been there for many years and that was my home. But I saw the opportunity to come to Milan, try new experiences and win trophy for Milan. So far, everything has been great. I'm having a great time playing here and despite having some difficulties last season due to injuries, I'm feeling good now. I want to embrace the culture here. Of course, the football here is slightly different in tactics, and the game in Serie A is like playing chess. At the same time, I can also bring the physical fitness and strength of the Premier League to the Serie A arena.
About the competitiveness of mid- and lower-stream teams in Serie A, each game is difficult, and each team has its own style of play and threat. It's really hard to win the game, you have to be ready and focus every game to get three points. It was like a game against Cremonese, it was a tough and trap-filled game and we ended up losing. It's a very tough league.
About my favorite position
I have played many positions in my career and can play multiple roles. Sometimes I think it's a gift, sometimes I think it's a curse because you can't always play your favorite position. I prefer to be in midfield, feel more like an offensive player, I like to enter the penalty area and create opportunities. I think I'm the best in this position, but I'll play anywhere according to the needs of the team and the coach.
About Milan's goal
Our public goal is to return to the Champions League, but are there any higher expectations in the locker room? We will play against Napoli on Sunday, who did not compete in the Champions League last year but won the Serie A title. I think we have to be realistic and focus on the present. We played some good balls and the team started to become more united and played better football, but we couldn’t be too excited. We must focus on improving ourselves every day, play games after games, and not think too far away because the season has just begun.
About Pulisic, who is in a hot state recently, has worked very hard and trained very hard every day. He practices shooting and penalty kicks, hoping to become a player who can influence the game. When I played with him in the past two seasons, I found that he was very stable and always scored goals at critical moments. He is still improving and has great potential. It's great to have Pulisic on the team, we've been good friends since Chelsea, and I'm so happy to see him growing up so well and becoming a top player.
About playing with Modric
Playing with Modric is really great, from his first training, he is very calm and calm on the court, controlling everything around him. You don't need to worry when he gets the ball, he knows how to find you. You all saw the influence he brought. So, it was great to play with him and have him on the team to help us win games.
