AC Milan defender Calabria reveals early Pioli bust-up

AC Milan defender Davide Calabria has admitted falling out with coach Stefano Pioli last season.

Calabria admits he didn't get along with Pioli when the coach first arrived.

Calabria said, “I did have a few too many discussions with the coach at the start. We sat down like men and talked about what wasn't working. From the day after that, we managed to form a strong rapport, just as there is with the whole squad.

“It's not a coincidence if a team does well, because if you feel that emotional bond, you unconsciously give a little bit more.

"We are giving our all and so is the coach to us."
