AC Milan boss Pippo Inzaghi was delighted with Alex's performance in victory over Chievo Verona.
Sulley Muntari and Keisuke Honda struck the goals for the Rossoneri.
"We signed Alex to strengthen our defence and he had a great game tonight. He's good in the air, reads situations well and brings that bit of experience we needed. We have many centre-backs who can alternate next to him, but it's not as if conceded goals are always down to the defenders ," said Inzaghi.
"The whole team has to contribute."
