Andrea which strength has Zeman’s Cagliari?
“It will be a difficult game, as every game. This championship is very balanced, then Zeman’s team usually takes a couple of matches before they are in shape, but we are feeling fine, like we have shown. Now we have to continue like this. This will be a tough challenge because they have a lot of quality in the offense”.
How important is Medel for your defense?
“From my point of view both the defense and the offensive play, I think when everyone is running for all 90′ minutes and gives his everything it’s very easy to play. Weather it’s Medel or M’Vila they are all important. If we don’t concede a goal that’s everybody credit.”
Is the problem solved with San Siro which you had last year?
“There have never been a problem for us, because Meazza is our home”.
Have Mazzari giving you a fine after talking about the Scudetto?

After Vidic held a press conference, it’s your time to talk. After Vidic’s suspension can you be forced to rest?
“I don’t believe in luck, but I think that the Coach can change something. I don’t know what changes he can do but everybody is ready”.
What did you think about Hernanes moments?
“No one is untouchable it’s all depending on the todays form. “Il Profeta” closed the last game, we are all calm. But it’s a luxury problem to have a competitive squad and that everyone has the ambition to be a start player. Thera are no problem when things are going good. We have to enter with the mentality that everyone is important”.
What will be the difference of winning the Scudetto?
“That could include everything, but the main difference I think is the continuity, the performances is crucial. We are all in the beginning and only four matches have been played. So don’t think that you can make point out how he table will end. Normally Juventus starts of as a favorite, but be are hungry”.
Is there still something that you lack?
“There are a lot of new players, they still have to understand the mechanism. We are playing well, but it’s a long way “.
What’s Zeman’s theme of play?
“A lot of attacking, it’s not easy to keep up the pace, today we will prepare a lot for the game”.

What has Mazzari changed since last year?

You are searing a lot the to have ball-possesions, can you confirm?
“We have many players with quality and every game we always have had many chances to score, also made goals that were cancelled. Maybe the Torino game was the only one that we struggled with that, but that’s in he past”.
Who’s the most difficult to mark among the Nerazzurri strikers?
“I would say everyone. But the whole squad is very balanced, there are quality and there are quality. Fortunately that are all playing along me”.
How has Mazzarri affected the growth of the youngsters?
“A lot!, the coach offers space to everyone in a team so there are the right mix”.
