AC Milan's Taye Taiwo frustrated with lack of first team action
Posted Monday, December 12, 2011 by YAHOO Sport
AC Milan defender Taye Taiwo has voiced his frustration with his lack of regular first team action at the Serie A champions in the 2011-12 campaign.
"I am suffering every day because I don't get to play football. I joined this club in order to play, but I have made only six appearances so far," Taiwo was quoted as saying by L'Equipe.
The Nigeria international joined Milan from Olympique de Marseille on a free transfer during the summer, but has so far failed to make an impact at his new club.
"I don't understand how things work in Italy. Sometimes I even have to watch from the stands, but I really need to play in order to show what I can do," Taiwo explained.
"It looks like [coach Massimiliano] Allegri doesn't have faith in me. It's not like me to just sit back and do nothing in a situation like this."
The 26-year-old full back has featured four times for the Rossoneri in the Champions League but has only made two appearances in Serie A. He has a contract with Milan until the summer of 2014.
