AC Milan coach Gattuso admits Biglia, Bakayoko concerns

AC Milan coach Rino Gattuso admits Tiemoue Bakayoko is still adjusting to his system.

Gattuso admits Milan have issues in midfield with Lucas Biglia and ex-Chelsea man Bakayoko.

He said, “When it comes to Biglia's role we have Jose Mauri and Andrea Bertolacci. I think it'll take a while to get Bakayoko up to speed as a playmaker. When you come from a completely different league, you need to learn the cross-field passing, to double up on marking and not to just chase the ball. If you're not organised, the whole team can struggle.

“He can do it with some hard work, although he needs to learn Italian faster, as it's not helping him in the locker room."
