Keisuke Honda admits AC Milan frustrations

Keisuke Honda admits he's frustrated over the way his AC Milan career has started.

The Japan international has struggled since his move from CSKA Moscow.

"Criticism doesn't please me, of course, but you are all free to write what you want. I feel that soon my first Serie A goal will arrive and it is going to be an important moment.

"I am very determined. I came here in order to become a champion with Milan. It's a long road, but there is a great project here and the Japanese are patient people."

Honda has been dropped occasionally by Coach Seedorf, who said he still needs to get to grips with his tactics.

"I often speak to Seedorf, as his English is excellent, so it is easy to understand each other. Above all at the beginning I didn't understand a lot of things, so I went to his room to get into more detail.

"At the start I didn't feel at ease on the right, but Kaka is already in the centre and he's playing well, so I need to find my space."
