Sinisa: Leave Dejan alone

Sinisa Mihajlovic has insisted that Lazio fans could drive compatriot Dejan Stankovic out of the club if they continue to whistle the midfielder.

Stankovic has been rumoured to be seeking a route out of the club, with talk that Internazionale will make a raid for a player that Lazio coach Roberto Mancini considers crucial to his team.

However, a poor performance in the 1-0 defeat to Chievo at the weekend saw the supporters whistle the player.

"The whistling is a really bad thing," said Serbo-Montenegrin team-mate Mihajlovic.

"I know what he is feeling because I had the same problem two years ago.

"Dejan is a really sensitive guy and if things continue in this way then he will under-perform.

"Then of course we would seriously risk losing him."
