Mihajlovic: I'm not worried about my job after Berlusconi talk

The AC Milan coach has full faith in his abilities to turn the San
Siro club's poor run of form in Serie A around
Sinisa Mihajlovic is calm over his future at AC Milan following
talks with club president Silvio Berlusconi.

Speculation has persisted over the former defender's position
at San Siro, with reports emerging on Monday that Marcello
Lippi had been sounded out as his replacement.

Speaking ahead of his side's Coppa Italia quarter-final with
Carpi, Mihajlovic insisted he has no concerns over his role and
revealed he has spoken with Berlusconi in recent days.

"It's now been three months since the rumours started about
me," he said. "It's not a problem, I'm calm, and I'm taking it
one game at a time.

"The club denied the Lippi rumours immediately, so it's over.

I'm too smart to fall into certain traps.

"I heard from Berlusconi yesterday, we talked a little bit about a
few certain things."

Mihajlovic, who has declared Mario Balotelli fit to return to
Wednesday's matchday squad, has challenged his team to
become more ruthless in attack as they target Serie A's top
three.

"This team can fight for a place in the Champions League, but
unfortunately we've never been there this season," he said.

"We deserve to be six or seven points higher in the table, which
would mean we were in the fight for top spot. I'm disappointed
about that.

"We have to improve in attack, we have to be more ruthless.
We create a lot, but we don't always score.

"If we play the way we have in recent games, we'll soon be
back to winning matches."
