The Rossoneri moved to the top after their 1-0 win over Napoli at the San Sior, after an own goal by German Denis.
Galliani told AC Milan’s official website: “We are extremely satisfied, I am still celebrating and I think it will take a whole night to get rid of all this adrenaline.
“We won against a great side that played a wonderful game and I have to admit I saw exceptional performances from our lads tonight. Christian Abbiati is finally back among us after I courted him for a long time this summer.
“Giuseppe Favalli was also fantastic, he always knows what is going to happen and he proved it today. As for Gennaro Gattuso, he fires up the whole dressing room and I was right in convincing him to stay put last July.
“We are so eager to win the Scudetto and are now able to relax a bit, as we are in a more appropriate position for the most successful club in the world.”
