Ricci admits he can 'improve' and points out Milan issue: "It has happened before"

"We are disappointed with the points dropped. In my opinion, we could have done better in the first half, especially after the first goal. We dominated possession and we needed a bit more courage to attack the goal and try to score a few more goals. Then we kept going, we probably didn't start the second half in the best of ways. This is something that has happened before, so it's something we need to improve."

"I'm feeling really good, connecting with Luka, Fofana and also the other guys who are currently on the sidelines. I try to do what the coach asks of me. Perhaps, sometimes I can have some more characteristics of a playmaker but I also try to take on the role of a mezz'ala. I need to improve from a physical point of view as I'm a bit behind."

"We have another chance on Tuesday, there's no time to think, we need to recover right away. It will definitely be a very difficult match. I know Atalanta and Juric's style of play, it won't be an easy game, it will be very physical."

Samuele Ricci admitted disappointment at Milan dropping points after a 2-2 draw and said the team dominated possession but lacked the courage to press for more goals. He noted Milan often have slow starts to second halves and must improve their reaction and consistency. Ricci described feeling well-connected with teammates like Luka and Fofana while trying to fulfill the coach's tactical demands, alternating playmaker traits and mezz'ala duties. He conceded he is physically behind and needs to improve. He warned the upcoming Atalanta match will be very difficult and physically demanding, with little time to recover.
