Thiago Silva insists AC Milan are not in crisis.

The Brazil defender is fit-again and said: "I feel fine again now. This morning I worked on changing direction and it went well. I am happy because I can return to doing what I like a lot and that's playing.

"With all the work we've done we cannot but profit against Roma. Personally I have been out for a long time, but now I am very happy to be better and to be able to start playing again.

"I would like to once again thank Milan, all the staff and the dressing room. I am very happy to be well again. It's not easy for players to stay on the sidelines for a period.

"We have a way to prepare ourselves well and need to work hard so we're ready to meet Roma and then Real Madrid. If Milan want to win anything we have to get out of this bad spell.

"We are going through a difficult moment. We want to get back to fighting [for titles] and if Ronaldinho starts playing well again then so will Pato and Milan could return to doing well."
