MILAN – Ahead of this afternoon’s press conference, Clarence Seedorf spoke exclusively to the Milan Channel:“After a string of very positive results the team are doing very well. We dropped a bit against Catania and we weren’t as lucid as we should have been. Tomorrow will be different. We hope to improve our game and continue getting results. Balotelli is turning into a complete player. We didn’t do so well against Catania but he understood the game and did everything that had to be done. Many players don’t always make the right choices but there’s a though process behind everything and it’s all part of the game. Honda is getting back fit and we hope to have him back next week.Prandelli did well to call on El Shaarawy. It’s important for us and for the player. We have a program that should see him play 70 minutes. He’ll play for the Primavera tomorrow and then we’ll see after that. He’s following his personalized program”.
