AC Milan coach Leonardo says that Jose Mourinho's strict policy is what young players need to stay in line. Inter Milan tactician Mourinho, who's renowned for his intolerance towards players, said on Friday that youth striker Mario Balotelli and his generation 'only think about a Ferrari and going clubbing'. Days later, Leonardo revealed that he agrees with the former Chelsea manager, saying that players' misbehavior abysmally affects their careers. "Everything that happens in football is a reflection of its society, so the attitude of young players is that of lads off the field too," the Brazilian boss stated. "This generation is a bit like that. Nowadays a great champion will have three top class years, whereas Michel Platini had 15 and someone like Kaka will have another 15. "Let us take Adriano as an example. He plays for Flamengo when he could've been at one of the biggest clubs in the world. "If a youngster looks at Adriano and Kaka, he realizes who should be the example and how to have a different future. "Mourinho is right, but today's young players act the way today's young people do. Adriano is the product of a journey through Brazilian society. "I won't believe these lads are bad and that's all, they are formed by the society around them."
