'We've not done anything yet' - Reijnders says Milan are not where they need to be
Tijjani Reijnders conceded Milan are not where they want to be in Serie A, despite his double leading them to a 3-0 win over Empoli.
Tijjani Reijnders warned Milan against any complacency as they look to chase down Champions League qualification.
Milan are seventh in Serie A following Saturday's 3-0 win over Empoli at San Siro.
Reijnders scored twice, after Alvaro Morata had broken the deadlock, as Milan impressively put a defensively sound Empoli team to the sword.
But Milan are seven points back from league leaders Napoli, while they are six points off the top four.
"We haven't done anything yet, we have to keep pushing," said Reijnders.
"Good match but the points distance from the Champions League places weighs [heavily].
"We play to win [but] we are not satisfied with the position."
Coach Paulo Fonseca, meanwhile, credited his team's performance at both ends of the pitch, as they limited Empoli to zero shots on target and kept a fifth clean sheet in the space of seven home matches in Serie A this term.
"We played a great game against a team that is very aggressive defensively, which has the fourth-best defence in the championship," Fonseca told reporters.
"We played a very balanced game, offensively and defensively. There was one very important thing, the [quick] recovery of the ball in the offensive half of the pitch.
"We scored three goals but could have scored six or seven if we hadn't made the wrong last choices."
