His way of interpreting football is famous, it attracted me. If you play for a team that fight against relegation it is obvious that it is more difficult for creative players like me. Here in Turin, however, we aim to dominate the game, to attack. It is much easier for me to express myself here than in a defensive team. When you feel that everyone believes in It’s easier for you to play, it allows you to be free. I just want to be happy and play football. I’ve worked all my life for this.”

Several times during the season we have produced more play than our opponents. I wish we were more concrete and lucky. We have to continue our growth process and the results will come. Now let’s face the Fiorentina, who are a tough team. It’s tough to face them there at the Franchi but we can win because we have an excellent team and we play excellent football. The most important thing for me is always to win. The pitch will do the talking.”
