Former AC Milan coach Fabio Capello is impressed by this season's tea,

Capello felt victory over Genoa proved the spirit now within the current Serie A leaders.

He told La Gazzetta dello Sport: Against Genoa I saw a Milan with more spirit, more will, more sacrifice.

"(Rafael) Leao is the first, perhaps the only one, capable of deciding with one play. He should be taken as he is, he seems apathetic but then gets inflamed."

However, Capello also saw Theo Hernandez waning: "I saw him push less, he seems slowed down or in any case below his standards."

Then on Stefano Pioli's squad, he added: "Expanded, with some starters added. The surprising thing is how quickly they integrated."
