Carlos Bacca scored the decisive goal at Marassi on Brocchi’s managerial debut.

“We are happy, because aside from the change of management we needed a victory after many negative results,” the captain told Mediaset Premium.

Riccardo Montolivo insists there was “a lot of Cristian Brocchi and a lot of Sinisa Mihajlovic” in Milan’s victory at Sampdoria.

Carlos Bacca scored the decisive goal at Marassi on Brocchi’s managerial debut.

“We are happy, because aside from the change of management we needed a victory after many negative results,” the captain told Mediaset Premium.

“We haven’t been working with Brocchi for long and it will take time to assimilate his concepts. The ideas are there.

“Whose ideas were behind this victory? There was a lot of Brocchi and a lot of Mihajlovic in there.

“We are happy with our approach to the game, as we had the right attitude and deserved the victory. There are another five rounds left and Lazio too are closing on us.

“It’s a shame to be in this situation, because we had done really well in January, February and March, then lost our way.

“Mihajlovic’s quality is not up for debate, unfortunately we were unable to give him what he wanted. We step on to the pitch, it is primarily our fault.

“Now we are at the disposal of Coach Brocchi and will try to put his ideas into practice.”
