AC Milan attacker Birsa determined to stay grounded

AC Milan attacker Valter Birsa insists he won't get carried away with his current form.

Birsa has been a revelation for the Rossoneri this season.

"I always hoped for the best, but I did not want to focus too much on it," Birsa told Sport TV.

"I wanted to make a good impression, especially with hard work on the field. But I should not be happy only with that, I have to continue playing like this.

"I am not getting carried because of [the praise]. I am not under pressure because of it either, because I know how quickly things can change.

"But compliments are certainly a sign that I am on the right track."
