    <span class="titolo">Ancelotti: We Are Missing Ronaldo</span></p>

    <span class="sommario">Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti has admitted that the team is suffering in the absence of star striker Ronaldo.</span></p>

    El Fenomeno has yet to play this season due to a knee injury and the Rossoneri have struggled badly to score goals without him. </p>

    The only other two senior strikers in Milan&rsquo;s first team squad are Filippo Inzaghi and Alberto Gilardino. </p>

    Inzaghi is now 34 and has failed to hit the back of the net since the 2-1 victory over Benfica on September 18. He has also not scored in Serie A for 10 months. </p>

    Gilardino has struggled too for most of the campaign and was booed and jeered by his own supporters after going the first nine matches in all competitions without scoring. </p>

    Although Gila has recently improved, very few see the ex-Parma man as the long-term solution to Milan&rsquo;s requirements up-front. </p>

    &ldquo;Certainly at the moment his [Ronaldo&rsquo;s] absence is hurting us.&rdquo; confessed Ancelotti. </p>

    &ldquo;However I am sure we can solve our problems without him.&rdquo; </p>

    Ancelotti also confirmed that Massimo Oddo, who missed Sunday&rsquo;s defeat to Roma, will not recover in time for tonight's match at Sampdoria. </p>

    &ldquo;Oddo will not recover, however Emerson is now available again.&rdquo; the ex-Parma tactician concluded.</p>
