Ghana midfielder Michael Essien believes the contributions of his former Chelsea teammate Fernando Torres and Keisuke Honda can help propel AC Milan this term.
Essien and his Milan teammates have been impressive this term after a disappointing seventh-place finish last season.
The Rossoneri are currently fourth on the league table after seven rounds of matches.
Essien says they can count on Torres and Honda to contest for titles this term.
ââ¬ÅWe have a great group here and great players who are always ready when they have to step up,â⬠Essien said.
ââ¬ÅFernando Torres is a great player. I see him training at his best every day. I am sure that heââ¬â¢ll help us a lot throughout this season and that he will soon start to score many goals.
ââ¬ÅHonda just finds himself in such an incredible form. He always plays for the team and also scores lots of goals.
ââ¬ÅI really hope he can carry on scoring and keep doing well.ââ¬
