Chelsea midfielder Bakayoko: I understand AC Milan fans' jeers

Chelsea midfielder Tiemoue Bakayoko says he understands the frustration of AC Milan fans.

Bakayoko has been jeered by Milan fans during his loan spell.

“The whistles don't please me, but I understand," Bakayoko said.

“I hope they'll applaud me soon. I've done some good things, but we're only at the beginning. I hope to be decisive and make Milan one of the best four teams in Serie A.

“I feel best in the 4-4-2 formation, but I also felt comfortable in the 4-3-3 in the last game [against Juventus].

“I could have helped more and I'm sorry about the result, but unfortunately that's foootball. I'm happy with the way I played though.

“Franck Kessié has helped me to settle in, especially in terms of learning the language, and I hope to be able to speak Italian soon."
