Ruud Gullit feels AC Milan must overcome their injury crisis to get back in the title race.

The Rossoneri legend fears the absence of two Brazilian stars is hurting Milan's chances.

"It's fundamental they regain Robinho and Pato," he said. "Pato's goal scoring is now needed."

Asked if Milan should be concerned by Zlatan Ibrahimovic admission he was "tired of football", Gullit replied: "To Ibrahimovic I would say that football is the greatest thing in the world."
