Massimmo moratti Talk About The Competition this March

About Match between Milan & Napoli
"I don't think it will be decisive,but it's all a lot of fun. It's starting to get interesting now."
"Mazzarri's team are not out of it. Yesterday they had a poor game but Napoli are still a very good side and they have done extremely well until now." 
"Let's hope we can eat away at their lead. We'll do our best but we don't have an easy fixture list. Who do I want to win out of Juventus and AC Milan on Saturday? I haven't thought about it yet."

About Inter Last Game against Il Samp
"As is often the case, the biggest, most important games aren't always the most enjoyable ones because of the pressure and the caution adopted, but in the second half it was different." 
"The championship race will run to the end if Napoli and ourselves are able to pick up a few points."

About Next big match between Juventus and AC Milan
"I think Juve really want to make up for recent results." 

About Inter players
"I'm extremely proud of my players and I hope I will be proud at the end of the year too."

Delio Rossi & Serse Cosmi talk about Coach Replacement in Palermo

Serse Cosmi - New Palermo Coach
"Am I a caretaker manager? We are all caretaker managers in this business,
"There's no such thing as a long or short contract that cannot be broken. No Coach has a guarantee that agreement will be respected by the club, because it is tied to results.
"I came here in a team where I don't see particular problems or a hellish atmosphere. I am certain that I have a squad with great quality, as there is the right mix between players of experience and potential.
"Clearly after a 7-0 home defeat we need to do some psychological work on the side, but we're ready to work and emerge from this particular situation."
"I have always worked with Presidents of great character, who influenced my career and my way of thinking in a positive manner," 

Delio Rossi - Ex Palermo Coach
"The club told me around 13:30 yesterday,"
"Seeing that I am not practiced in these things, I asked what I had to do."
"They told me that there wasn't any need to sign anything. But I wanted to come and salute you."
"I would have liked a Press Conference at Boccadifalco, but the team had already left."
"In any case, I would like to once again thank all the Palermo fans and the team."
"I think that the story had already been written for some time. But I am upset about this epilogue."
"It doesn't suit me to say anything about what happened. Perhaps in a moment of calm, at the end of the season, I will reveal how it went."
"It's obvious that the personal criticism bothered me. There is no problem on a professional level, but on a personal level I don't want anyone to criticise me."
"Someone can say that I am not a good Coach, but not that I am not a good person." 

Javier Zanetti Talk About The Competition this March

About Serie A Competition
"Regardless of the result in the AC Milan v Napoli match, I'm really happy with the way we're playing. The league is fascinating this year and very even: three teams are going to be in it until the end. The result against Sampdoria was "a key win but I must say that Samp played very well."
"Coming through 15 games in two months takes a lot out of you. Now we have a bit of time to work without pressure and get some of our injured players fit again." 

About Diego Milito Injury 
"We miss him and I hope he doesn't have any more setbacks because Inter need him for the run-in. How do I think Pandev is doing? He's looking good."

About UEFA Champions League
"I fully believe we can do it," 
"We'll go to Germany to get through to the next round It won't be easy but we have to give it our best shot."

Francesco Guidolin Quotes about Udinese sensational winning against Palermo

About the Game
“The positive moment is going on, we’re satisfied with our performance, and we thank all the supporters who were here welcoming and celebrating us on our return. We want to continue this way, fighting as hard as we can to stay where we are. We need to forget immediately yesterday’s win, which gave us three points, and concentrate on Bari. We’re not used to cameras and spotlights, but it’s one side of the job”.
“I could have never imagined such a match, but we had worked to take the field with courage and personality. I’m proud, many beautiful words have been said about us. On Sunday my boys have made me look so good in a place where I was loved once. The result is a once-in-a-lifetime one, they were the protagonists”.


About Next Game against Bari
“Yet a tough opponent to face with all the determination we can use. I’m expecting a proud, vivid team. It’s going to be a difficult match, as all the Serie A ones. It’s a test-bed, we have to prove we’re mature enough”.


About Alexis Sanchez
“He has to go on this way, focusing on the work he’s doing. He’s giving more as an attacking midfielder than as an outside, he has to run between the lines and act during the non-possession phase, to press the opponents, I don’t want him to be a striker. I found a game plan which I try to render more and more harmonic and operational”.

Walter Mazzarri quotes after Napoli beaten by AC Milan

Walter Mazzarri - Napoli Coach, talk about the game between Milan - Napoli which ended by score 3-0 for Milan Victory.


About Match
“We wanted to try a few things in the second half, but we couldn’t manage it,” 
“Milan are a phenomenal side and they stopped us from playing.
“If possible, I would have liked to stop the game completely and got the side to just think about a few things for three minutes."
“We weren’t brilliant and the pitch wasn’t at its best. Our desire to equalise then allowed them too much space and we were punished.”
“Until the penalty incident the game was balanced, then everything changed,” 
“Those penalties can be given. Sometimes they are and sometimes they are not. Tonight the referee decided to award it."
“But I don’t want to talk about referees, especially as there were other dubious decisions made, like some offside calls, so I want to avoid talking about them.”


About Next game
“We’ve lost a Final, but we must now look to the others, Brescia arrive on Sunday, a tough side.”


About Lavezzi
“He is an important weapon that we missed, who knows what would have happened tonight with him…”

AC Milan Quotes after Fabolous Winning from Napoli

Serie A Week 27 2010-2011
Milan win the big match game against Napoli at San Siro with score 3-0

ADRIANO GALLIANI – Milan Vice Executive President
“Tonight the team reminded me of the Milan side of 20 years ago... It was a fundamental game, we knew it, now another one awaits us on Saturday. The team played well, we allowed Napoli only one shot on goal, eventually saved by Abbiati. Jankulovski’s performance was a pleasant surprise. He spent more than an hour on the field and did quite well. He played very well after a long absence. I want to congratulate the whole team. I liked Van Bommel’s performance as well. I try not to be banal, because we all know who the others are, worthy of praise... so I want to congratulate most of all Jankulovski and Van Bommel and the whole team. Alessandro Nesta and Thiago Silva were extraordinary. Thiago is an extraordinary defender. It’s been a long period now that the substitutes have contributed to team’s success in a big way. The starters do a good job, but also the players from bench do their part. For instance, Emanuelson did well after coming on. Boateng’s runs were simply deadly. Patinho scored a marvellous goal... Pato has always been a magnificent player, his goal/minutes played ratio is extraordinary.
Ibra always fights like a lion. I must say De Sanctis made three miraculous saves.
The president didn’t come out of respect for the Italian soldier who died in Afghanistan today. If there’s someone who has done his best for Naples, starting from the issue of the refuse, it’s him. I’m sure he wouldn’t say anything offensive against Naples.
With this win we extended our lead at the top of the standings. Now we have a five-point advantage. Up to now we had a three-point lead, but now it’s five.
The public was much warmer than in the Champions League against Tottenham. This means that the fans really want the league title.
We’ve been leading the league for a long time. Now there are 11 more games left to play. We have a five-point advantage ahead of the second-placed, six ahead of the third-placed and ten ahead of the fourth. And whatever happens in the next round, we’ll keep the first place“.

ALLEGRI – Milan Coach
“The team did well, we played well. We didn’t sit back after taking the lead early in the second half. I’m satisfied with Jankulovski’s performance. It was the first time he started a game this season. Seeing how he played, perhaps it was a mistake not to play him before.
Despite tonight’s result, three teams will fight it out for the title, because Napoli are trailing Inter only by one point and the championship is still long. The important thing is that we won this evening.
I prefer fielding Boateng right behind the strikers, even if he could also play in the three-man midfield. But for the latter he’s still a bit immature…
Juventus are going through a difficult period, but teams tend to regroup in times of difficulty, so it will be a tough game on Saturday”.

PATO – Milan Striker
“Not only me, but the whole team did well. Now I’m only focusing on training hard, doing what the boss asks from me and helping my teammates. I just want to play. Before our second goal, I passed to Boateng, because I saw him bursting into the area so I gave him the ball. I’m happy for his goal. This is a great evening, I’m pleased, because I played and I ran a lot. We got three important points against Napoli, but now we have to look ahead to the upcoming game against Juventus. We have to get as many points as possible in every single match. We have to do well and concentrate on ourselves. I’m glad, because I managed to do what the boss asked me in training, but now we have to turn the page and start thinking about the next challenge. On Tuesday I trained instead of relaxing, because I want to play and help my teammates.
I have a great relationship with Cassano, we’re great friends. Everyone knows he’s a nice guy. Antonio has a big heart. Thiago is an extraordinary player and he’s focused on doing his job. He’s a great guy both on and off the field and I’m happy for what he’s doing at Milan.
In Verona I pulled off my shirt when I was celebrating. I didn’t do it out of anger, but because I was overjoyed to have scored on the 25th anniversary of the Berlusconi presidency”.

MAREK JANKULOVSKI – Milan Defender
“I’m glad with how we played tonight. It was a great game, a great win. I’m happy also for myself, because playing after such a long absence wasn’t easy. It’s a great day.
We’re professionals, we’re at Milan, we’re an excellent team, therefore we always must train as hard as possible and sooner or later everyone will get the chance to play. Because of this, I’ve always worked hard and today has been a really good day for me as it was such a great feeling to hear the fans chant my name at the San Siro after such a long time.
Napoli are a great team, but this evening we dominated the whole game and didn’t give them anything.
We all hope to keep our first place until the end of the season, but there’s still a long road to go. We can’t take anything for granted. Our rivals don’t give up and another difficult game awaits us on Saturday”.
