AC Milan trained for about ninety minutes in the Eindhoven Philips Stadium on Monday night. The training session took place behind closed doors, but representatives of the press were allowed to watch the stars at work from the touchline. Johann VogelJohann Vogel returned to the stadium where he spent six seasons. "It's nice to be back", announced the Swiss, who proved to be still popular with the fans when he got into the players' bus. The rossoneri played several games in special formations. If bibs are anything to go by, Sjevtsjenko will not be included in the starting line-up, as he has not completely recovered from his injuries yet. Clarence Seedorf and Jaap Stam, though, joined the other stars of the Italian giant for full training. Kakà, Pirlo, Maldini, Dida, Kaladze and all the other players were back on the pitch where they suffered a 3-1 defeat at the beginning of May, but still progressed to the Champions League final. Jaap StamCoach Carlo Ancelotti held a press conference prior to the final training ahead of the game. He did not reveal much. Ancelotti praised the team of PSV - the defence in particular - and announced he would opt for an attacking style of football. Jaap Stam sat beside him behind the desk. He did not want to go into suggestions of a possible return to PSV. "My future is not my first priority right now. I have come to Holland to play the group stage return game against PSV. I love playing football in Italy and what happens next is for the future to show", said Stam in the Philips Stadium.
