Raffaele Palladino sheds light on Biraghi and Parisi

Raffaele Palladino commented to the microphones of Sky Sport on the thunderous victory with Lask (7-0) in the Conference League: "Today the team gave great response of maturity and attitude. I è liked the spirit and how they took the field. We started really well, we put the opponents in trouble in all aspects. I è liked the response from everyone. This win givesà morale and also helps to win".

The Viola coach also spoke about the situation related to Cristiano Biraghi: "I reiterate what I said yesterday. A lot of false things have been said as far as I am concerned. No quarrel with Biraghi but only a confrontation between me, him and the club, and together we made this decision about January. There’è nothing to add. My choices are for the good of the team and Fiorentina. I think his choice should also be respected, we just think about moving forward for the good of Fiorentina".

Clear words also about Fabiano Parisi, on the field 90 minutes with the Austrians: "For me Parisi è was one of the best on the field. Today was not easy for him after what was è written. Before the game I talked to him and motivated him. I believe in him and he gave a great response of character and personality. I am happy with the great performance he did".

Final comment on defense: "As I have always said, the first defenders are the attackers. Today we cannot afford to leave a single player above the ball line. Important automatisms were found and a defensive solidity that I like a lot. We have modified something from the beginning of the year forò I see that the team knows what to do both in possession and non-possession. I am happy that the boys are doing well, my job è that they express themselves in the best way".
