Kaka is confident Milan can do The Double of picking up the Scudetto and UEFA Cup this season.
“Carlo Ancelotti is right. Now that we are top of Serie A and our UEFA group, the only way is down!” joked the Brazilian in an extensive interview with the Gazzetta dello Sport.
“The truth is we are not yet impressive in terms of our performance. We are constant in our results, and that is positive, but less so in creating chances and moving the ball around. We need more creativity, but don’t forget we are missing a crucial figure like [Andrea] Pirlo.
“Milan are a more mature squad with more quality than 2007 and this is why we can surprise.
“I have an objective: to win the Scudetto and UEFA Cup. I’m targeting the Double to enter the history books of this club.”
The Rossoneri had a dismal start to the campaign and lost their two opening games, but have since notched up an impressive tally.
“I learned the lesson with Brazil in the 2006 World Cup that talent is not enough, you need hard work and team spirit.
“The turning point for Milan was the game with Lazio. They were in great form and we beat them while playing very well. Then the derby victory gave us another huge boost.”
Kaka had a penalty saved in the 1-0 win over Napoli last week that sent Milan to the top of the Serie A table.
“Napoli really impressed me and [Ezequiel] Lavezzi is a fantastic player. Udinese are doing very well, too. Are Inter losing ground? No, they are a solid squad and have quality, they will not disappoint. Then there are Juventus, who are always tough.”
