‘I ran out of gas’, says AC Milan striker Zlatan Ibrahimovic – Serie A Update
AC Milan striker, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Zlatan-Ibrahimovic-c38029, believes that he gave his best to the outfit at the start of the season but ran out of gas in the final furlong of the season. The striker came to San Siro at the start of the season on a loan deal from the Spanish outfit,
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 FC, and the Rossoneri reserve the right to buy the player at the end of the season for 24 million Euros.
Ibra made a strong impact in the Italian top flight following his return to Serie A and scored winning goals in the starting games of the season. However, the hitman struggled towards the end of the season and failed to give his best wearing the red and
black jersey. While talking to the Italian news agency La Gazzetta dello Sport, Ibra said:
“I picked up two avoidable suspensions towards the end of the season, but my first six or seven months at Milan. I don’t think that I have ever started a season so well in any other side. But perhaps I burned myself out, I ran out of petrol, mentally and
physically. But we are Milan, we are a great side, and there were other players who did their http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Job-c18684 well while I was tired.”
Ibra is still unsure about his future, as he bids time waiting for the club manager, Massimiliano Allegri, to come with a final decision regarding his presence at San Siro next season. When asked about his future, the Swedish footballer said:
“I don’t know, Allegri will decide that with the club. I’m paid to play football and I just have to do what they order.”
The Diavolo won the Scudetto this season and Ibra has been of great help in winning the title after a drought of 7 years in the Italian top tier. The striker is keen to stay with the Rossoneri and believes that this was just the first episode of the many
victories coming for Milan in the near future. The prolific striker believes that the team has the right attitude to make it to the top again in the coming seasons. Ibra is optimistic of a good run in the UEFA Champions League in the 2011/12 season.
