“I do not know if it is the right medicine, but it sure is a step forward. Today the approach was right, this week you could see the desire to do well and tonight we saw that in the first half.” Stated Mauro Icardi to Premium Sport after the 4-2 win over Fiorentina.
Fear of winning? “No, but we have to manage the games. When we play too far back in the lead it becomes easier for the opponent to get in behind, like how it happened today. Against Napoli we must have the same attitude as today’s match, with the right nastiness and after we will see how it goes.”
“How many goals do I want to score? “It is not a goal. I do the best for the team, I am a striker and scoring goals is part of my job.”

hmmm which of our backs are going to be able to keep tabs on Insigne, Callejon and Mertens.
And these are the words I have been hearing for years now, especially from these dickheads thinking they are somehow close to top players.
Idk why they just don’t quit on football, they call themselves professionals when they can’t keep the same pace for 90 minutes, let alone for 2 or more matches.
I’m honestly sick of this. If they meant half of the shit they say in all of these interviews we’d be there in the top but nope…
The same attitude as in the first 30 minutes* After that it all went to shit.
I can’t believe how easily we lose attention and motivation after we score.
Against Napoli we must score 5 goals in the first 10 minutes just to be sure that they won’t pull a historic miracle…
We only play good football against big teams, today when Fiorentina became an easy win, they flopped and treated them like a small team
I think KDog and Brozo pretty much stopped playing after the middle of the first half. In the second half Mario was an improvement despite the mistake, but we lost way too many battles for first ball and then even we we won the ball, our positioning was dreadful and they regained it easily.
that’s why pioli change Kdog with Mario before the second half started. Kdog look confused as always never being 100% focus, maybe he forget to watering his plant..
Very true.
