AC Milan midfielder Mathieu Flamini admits there's a big difference in season preparations in Italy compared to his time at Arsenal.

"It was a great game, I felt a lot of emotion with a public that was 200% behind their team," Flamini told France-Football of Sunday's derby victory.

"It's different from Arsenal in terms of physical and tactical preparation at the start of the season. But anyway I feel a lot of joy to be able to be part of this team."
