AC Milan playmaker Ronaldinho has admitted that securing Champions League qualification at Old Trafford against Manchester United will be difficult, but believes the Rossoneri can do it.
Milan go into the match next week needing at least two goals following their 3-2 home defeat in the first leg but the Brazilian insisted he hasn't given up hope just yet.
"I am always positive, even when there are difficulties. Yes it will be difficult [to beat Manchester United] but not impossible," he told Sky Italia.
The Brazilian was also quick to pay homage to his team-mates for his recent resurgence, admitting his good form owed a lot to the strong defensive players behind him.
"I'm happy now because now I am playing regularly, but the merit is not mine alone, credit must go to the whole team," he added.
"Their work is very important for me because they allow me to do certain things. The shape of the team fits me and I am playing in a position where I am comfortable."
Finally, the former FIFA World Player of the Year said he was now setting his sights on reclaiming the titles he won in his glory days with Barcelona and Brazil.
"My goal is to win again, I want to win all the trophies that I have already won for a second time," he concluded.
