Conceição Declines to Contemplate Cup Match: "No Need for Me to Handle Anything"
Rewritten Article:
Sérgio Conceição, the gaffer at AC Milan, shared his thoughts ahead of the upcoming doubleheader against Genoa and Bologna in the Italian Cup. With these crucial games back-to-back, the Portuguese tactician dismissed any notion of managing the situation casually.
"We don't need to manage anything," Conceição said, "'Cause every day we feel the pressure to work for a club like AC Milan. We know the league can be a beast, and it's our job to exhibit quality day in and day out, proving we're a team unlike any we've seen before. The strategies other coaches might brainstorm don't phase us. We focus on one game at a time to improve every damn day. First up: Genoa, then Bologna."
He then pointed out Milan's impressive defensive record, with three consecutive clean sheets.
"It's all thanks to the team's hard work. We work our asses off to maintain this consistency, 'cause the team's always generating chances offensively. We focus on rectifying errors, individual and collective, that just can't happen."
"We've gotta stay consistent," he continued, "We work diligently to keep the team balanced, ensuring the players start to understand what the technical team wants. We've had a few hiccups, like Jovic's injury in Venezia. I trust everyone on the team, no doubts whatsoever."
