AC Milan coach Pippo Inzaghi and senior players clashed at the end of their defeat at Udinese. Inzaghi in the post-match claimed if he "had 10 substitutes I'd have used them all" at halftime of the dismal result.
On the team bus driving away from the stadium, Inzaghi reportedly rounded on his players, blasting: "Shame on you, you are not worthy of the jersey."
But senior players refused to take the coach's anger sitting down and hit back at Inzaghi.
La Repubblica and Corriere dello Sport reports it was Nigel de Jong who fired back, "It is you who does not have dignity, you are not worthy of coach Milan."
Other players joined in, while De Jong also insisted to Inzaghi that going into 'ritiro' at this stage of the season is a waste of time.
