| Kaka: Ronaldinho limits me |

Kaka was one of those urging Ronaldinho to join him at Milan, but admits the new arrival has “limited” his effectiveness.
The two Brazilian internationals came together at San Siro and Dinho has been crucial so far this season with nine goals between Serie A and the Coppa Italia.
“Ronaldinho is settling in very well and is giving us a great hand, but there are tactical issues we need to understand,” warned Kaka.
“Before his arrival we were accustomed to playing in a certain way and had learned the movements by heart.
“It was [Clarence] Seedorf and I behind a striker, who was almost always [Pippo] Inzaghi. With Ronaldinho turning up there have been some tactical modifications.
“Personally I had always started central and moved wide left as I approached the box, but now Ronaldinho is there and that limits me a little bit.”
Last year's Ballon d'Or and FIFA World Player of the Year has struggled with injury over the last few months and that too has impacted on his form.
Milan's results have also taken a downturn recently, hitting crisis point with two consecutive defeats against Palermo in Serie A and Lazio in the Coppa Italia.
It is now up to Carlo Ancelotti to find a solution that can get the best out of both his Brazilian superstars, starting with Sunday's match against Catania.
