Milan vice-president Franco Baresi attended the draw for the Europa League knockout play-offs and spoke to Sky Sports Italia after the ceremony.

On the football pitch, you can never underestimate anyone, but Milan must aim big and have plenty of ambition. We have to think about winning and respect our opponents, but we have to think further. We're going to play in February, there's still time and we're hoping to have a full squad by then.

We created a lot of chances and it was a good game. It wasn't easy against Monza and if they didn't play well, it was Milan too.

We don't have a choice and Milan have to always be at their best to go further. In the Champions League, we have to solidify our position and try to improve. Now we have to recover from injuries and if we have a full squad we can play in every event and you can't go and choose.

It's a joy to see a young man who grew up with us make his debut and score goals and it's good for the whole club. Milan have always been in the spotlight when they have been on the scene of young players lately, so I'm happy for him and I'm happy for Kamalda, I can imagine how happy his family is.

We don't have a lot of continuity in form, but we all know that the Champions League schedule is very tough. It's still a long way to go but with a whole team we can trouble every opponent and we can do well.
