"Sheva Is A Great Friend," Says Inzaghi

Milan striker Filippo Inzaghi who has seen quite a bit of bench of late has rejected reports that there is a rift with Ukranian teammate Shevchenko.

"Everyone knows that Vieri is a great friend of mine. Sheva is almost equal to the position of Bobo. Andriy and I watch movies together, we trade DVDs and we give advice to eachother every day. I have found that I have not only a great champion at my side, but also an exceptional person and a good friend for every day and for life. This is why I say that Milan must win thanks to his and my goals, and we will win."

This statement can put a firm clamp on any claims that the two strikers are not on good terms and will only reinforce coach Carlo Ancelotti's claim that his side are doing so well largely thanks to the attitude of all the players towards squad rotation.
