AC Milan boss Inzaghi happy hearing El Shaarawy "angry"

AC Milan boss Pippo Inzaghi had no problem with Stephan El Shaarawy's outburst last week.

The striker is frustrated with his lack of action in recent weeks.

"I would've been angry if he'd said he was happy to be left out," replied Inzaghi in a Press conference.

"We heard his words and they were respectful, he simply manifested how much he wants to play. He shows all that in training and on the field.

"It's normal to be annoyed at sitting on the bench and it fuels them to try even harder in training, which is what I watch out for. The media created the 'El Shaarawy controversy,' as the truth is he's reacting the way I used to."
