Milan lost 3-0 to Chelsea in a pre-season friendly, and head coach Amorim was interviewed by Sky Sport Italia after the match.

Amorim said: "We knew we might encounter some difficulties, but we wanted to arrange such a challenge for the players. Chelsea knows how to defend as a unit, how to win one-on-one duels, and how to press high. We would never use such pressing against a team like Chelsea, but we are here to prepare to win the first official match of the season and give the players confidence. Also, we had many young players in our squad today, and we are on the right track to get the team ready to win the first official match of the season."

"Yes, of course, we will make choices about our players. These two weeks have been really great, but we have too large a squad. We have to pick some players from it, and we will make those decisions within this week. We are certainly thinking, in the world of football you always don't have extra time, but we want to do things the right way. And if you look at our past, sometimes we made some mistakes, but this time we won't make those same mistakes again. "

"I am very happy with this team. With the current squad, we will be stronger against Torino. I don't know what will happen next in the transfer market, but I will never stand here after losing a game and demand to sign more players. I am very satisfied with the existing players, we just need to keep improving. This is also the benefit of being a head coach; coaching is not just about constantly asking to buy players. I previously asked for two players, and they did everything they could to bring these two players to the team very early. "

"But we have very good players, very, very good young players, and we will be ready for the match against Manchester United. We will play that game because it is the last pre-season game, and we will treat it like a normal game, just like the game against Torino. So we will try to make that choice, but the players will fight hard for their positions during that game. I don't know if the starting eleven for this game will continue to start, because it is a completely different game, and against Manchester United, we will perform better. I know it might be difficult to say these things after a 3-0 defeat, but I am really very satisfied with the way everyone has worked and contributed. "

"I am very pleased with the performance of the young players; they are trying to play in a different way, but we still have a lot of work to do. We need to improve in terms of ball possession and when we have the ball. As I said before, today's game made it even clearer to us what we need to improve and enhance, but fortunately, we still have three weeks of training time. Some players have only played two games and only had one joint training session with the team. We will improve and become a strong team in the first official match of the season. "
