Italy was work.
You know, was work.
I enjoyed my football more like Chelsea and Sampdoria.
I enjoyed more because I had a little bit more freedom.
But the best football I played in Milan.
Yes.
Yeah, we played a lot of sessions defensively.
I think a lot of people, especially in Holland, they don't train so much defensively.
So what we did, we played with the back four of Milan,
with the goalkeeper, two holding midfielders, so Rijkaard and Ancelotti holding midfielders against XI.
And I was playing against Maldini.
So it was seven players, so goalkeepers and six players against XI.
And we had to score with offside and everything.
We couldn't score a goal.
The only way to score a goal was with long shots from goal.
But to penetrate in there was impossible.
So I had to play all the time against Maldini.
Then, after a while, when it went so well, we played only against the back four, with 11 against the back four.
We couldn't penetrate.
It was impossible to penetrate.
