AC Milan coach Stefano Pioli has hit out at his media coverage.

Pioli is fed-up with the extremes of his portrayal.

“In these almost five years there has been no middle ground. Either very positive moments or very negative moments. I can't tell you if it is the most negative, but it is the closest and therefore also the most painful," he said.

“If I could change the result I would give everything I have to change the derbies, but it can't be done anymore. I for one have to have broad shoulders, understand that it's part of the game and it's part of my job.

"e have to demonstrate who we are until the end."
