(Reuters) - Manager Stefano Pioli said AC Milan must win silverware this season to write their names in the club's history books, urging his side to go for glory in the four competitions where they are still in the running for the top prize.
They have also qualified for the Champions League last 16, where they will face Tottenham Hotspur, and can still win the Coppa Italia and Supercoppa this season.
"If we want to consider ourselves a winning team, we have to try to win something again this year. Last season we made AC Milan history by winning . We are still hungry and now we want to cement our place in history." "We found them happy to be back, they have got over the disappointment of how the World Cup ended and are now charged up and motivated for the restart in the league," Pioli said.Pioli added that Ciprian Tatarusanu would play in goal against Salernitana, in place of the injured Mike Maignan, who suffered a calf injury in October.
