AC Milan goal hero Marco Borriello says the players are fully behind coach Leonardo.
Borriello struck a spectacular goal in their 2-0 win over Bari.
"The team has witnessed and heard the controversy between [Milan president Silvio] Berlusconi and Leonardo. There is not point in hiding from it," said Borriello. "This is why I went and hugged the coach after I scored.
"He is an exquisite person, with lots of enthusiasm, and I wanted to thank him personally.
"As for the Scudetto, [vice president Adriano] Galliani does not want to even pronounce the word, and I will do the same. The national team still remains a personal objective of mine, and will everything I can to reach it."
