Kaka don't have doubts with his commitment

Kaka hopes his goal against Anderlecht last night will end all doubts over his commitment to AC Milan.
"There is a great rapport between Carlo Ancelotti and myself. I really wanted to hug him after that goal," smiled the Brazilian following the 1-0 victory at Anderlecht.
"The important thing tonight was the three points, but we mustn't forget that we have to improve in many areas and always have to work hard."

Ancelotti told journalists that Kaka is "not ready to be a leader" at San Siro and the player agreed with this analysis.
"I am not a leader and am still trying to learn from Paolo Maldini, Billy Costacurta, Gennaro Gattuso and the others who have more experience. Hopefully, one day players will look to me for the same thing, but I am young and am always learning.
"I try to listen to those within football who know what I can do to resolve problems in my game and continue to improve."
The screamer in Brussels this evening was a familiar sight, as Kaka also scored the winner away to Club Brugge last season after an early dismissal.
"I prefer to look forward, but it did remind me of Bruges. It was a similar situation with the team in 10 men and this goal, so all our minds went back to that day. I hit it well, but the slight deflection changed the trajectory a little to put the goalkeeper off."
The Brazilian scored Milan's 500th European Cup goal, but he remained analytical and highlighted the faults shown by the Rossoneri in Belgium.
"We weren't very sharp in the first half and were too static, but we reacted after the break and deservedly won the match."
