"This competition since this year has raised the level of formations of a certain blazon and organized. In the semifinals we could only meet a valuable team. They are doing well, they play very good soccer and we will have to face them with utmost care. We will have to get a positive result at home, because away will be a hot environment. These teams know how to transform, we will have to optimize everything we can propose".

"The’self-confidence we try to get before every game in Europe. We came from the’elimination in the Italian Cup, but we reacted and scored with important players. That’s good; we come to it with enthusiasm and hopefully it will give us the right boost to put a’valuable opponent’in trouble.

"We are often forced to handle such close games. In the last match we lost Mandragora who had taken a hit and had not been able to get over it, now però he is fine. Everyone must be able to perform: it is paying off in the league, now management becomes key. Having everyone available è important".

“The rumors about my future? It cannotè be a topic for me. I am on the eve of too important a game that we all care about and are preparing for in the best possible way. We know what I think but I am not going to divert my concentration from tomorrow’s game. For me there is Bruges, the rest is just talk: I am being approached by Napoli, Bologna, Milan, Torino, then? I also read Marseille. If we are listening to all these rumors…. Maximum attention è on tomorrow".
