AC Milan coach Vincenzo Montella insists there's no problems with president Silvio Berlusconi.
There's reports Berlusconi would've already fired him if not for the intervention of the future Chinese owners.
Montella said, “When I played and fans complained, I always said it was part of the contract. I say the same thing, we have to have a rapport with the Presidents when we work as Coaches.
“I have great respect for Berlusconi and will always thank him for giving me this opportunity. Obviously there can be some confrontations and I always accept them with the utmost respect, but you can agree or not with certain aspects.
“Berlusconi proved to me he has great knowledge of football. Often the rumours are correct, but Berlusconi regularly compliments me for my work. I think discussions with Presidents can help stimulate improvement.
“At Coverciano (where Coaches get their diploma) they taught us to 'train' the Presidents too!
“A Coach cannot look too far into the future. Just remember a month ago reporters asked if I would sign a renewal with Milan, a couple of bad defeats later and I seemed to have one foot out the door.
“That's what football is like and I am not disturbed by that. I am very happy to be the Coach of Milan, as I wanted this club and hope there's the possibility of continuing. It doesn't only depend on me."
