'Score if you can'

Gilardino left Parma for the San Siro in a bumper 23m euro deal last summer, and with the rossoneri three points behind leaders Juve, the Italy striker will face a dilemma of celebrating if he notches a crucial goal at the Ennio Tardini.

"Should Gilardino celebrate if he scores against his old club? We could avoid the issue entirely by making sure he doesn't hit the back of the net!" said Beretta. "If a rossoneri player absolutely has to score, then I'd rather it was &lsquoone of our own.'

"As I'd already said before the first game this season at San Siro, I don't think there's anything wrong with celebrating against your old team, as long as there is respect. A goal is the greatest joy in this sport and shouldn't be repressed."
