"In the future we will see. Certainly Milan will always remain in my heart." Milan were superb in the first half of the season under new head coach Vincenzo Montella and were among the teams challenging Juventus at the top of the table. However, just two league wins since the turn of the year has seen their title ambitions fade and they face a tough battle even to qualify for European football having slipped to seventh. Shevchenko, though, believes Montella is doing a fine job."Vincenzo was a great striker and now is a great coach as well as a great man," he added. "For me he is doing something exceptional because he has built a united group and they have a good game. "With him AC Milan is back at high levels, although still something is missing to win."</blockquote>
