Former AC Milan boss Fabio Capello has hit out at Leonardo Bonucci saying that he "can't defend".
He went on to say that he was fortunate to play in a system that suited him at Juventus.
Bonucci joined San Siro outfit from the Serie A champions in a shock €42million deal but he has struggled badly for form during a difficult time for the Rossoneri.
Capello, managed Milan to four Scudetti and the 1994 Champions League in early 1990.
"He's the best Italian defender when he has the ball at his feet. He's among the top three in the world," Capello told Sky Sport Italia.
"But he can't defend. He has big problems. It was ideal for him at Juventus, where he was free. It's perfect for him to play in a three [in defence]. Playing in a four is hard."
Bonucci has played in 16 of Milan's 18 Serie A matches this season.
