AC Milan defender Gianluca Zambrotta is confident that the club can compete this season and has highlighted Ronaldinho as the player that can improve the quality of the team.

"Milan are as good as Inter and Juventus. We can do better than last season when we came third," he told Milan Channel on Wednesday.

Ronaldinho was a peripheral figure in his first campaign with the Rossoneri, but now has more responsibility thrust upon him following the departure of Kaka to Real Madrid.

"The list of champions I've played against? First there is [Zinedine] Zidane, second Dinho, and third Kaka," continued the former Barcelona defender.

"Ronaldinho is motivated to do well and can be our leader. He will perform, because he has been given more responsibility. I really hope he makes a difference, because we need it."
