AC Milan coach Gennaro Gattuso started Tiemoue Bakayoko for their victory over Fiorentina.

Gattuso insists he can handle the on-loan Chelsea midfielder after last week's bust-up against Bologna.

He said, "As for Bakayoko, I had put it all behind me the day after. I don't care if a player tells me to go to hell, the important thing is that he shows respect to his teammates in the dressing room.

"I have to think about what is best for the club, for AC Milan.

“If the players need to swear at me for the good of the club, then I can handle that."
