Have the criticisms of AC Milan in this early part of the season been a bit exaggerated?
"I think it is normal to receive criticism. I am not worried. I want to protect my players. The good thing about difficult moments at other clubs is that they give you experience. This is the price to pay for being the manager of a big club. I understand everything. There is a lot of information, you have to say something... It is normal for me, I will do things my way: I think that is clear to everyone."
How did Modric react to being substituted against Lazio?
"It is normal. He is a very good lad, he understands perfectly well. Sometimes it will be his turn, sometimes someone else's. In this respect we are all the same. Obviously he is an incredible player with a great history, he did not take it personally because he is intelligent."
