Viola squad for Genoa clash

< ![CDATA[
A 24-man squad has been named for the Viola’s Serie A match at the Franchi against Genoa.

Here’s the list in alphabetical order:

Alonso, Aquilani, Babacar, Badelj, Basanta, Bernardeschi, Borja Valero, Brillante, Cuadrado, Mati Fernandez, Gomez, Gonzalo, Ilicic, Joaquin, Kurtic, Lupatelli, Neto, Pasqual, Pizarro, Richards, Savic, Tatarusanu, Tomovic, Vargas

Montella: "First home match of the season, we want to put in a great performance"

< ![CDATA[
From the press room of the Stadio Franchi, Vincenzo Montella gave us his view on the upcoming match with Genoa.

“We want to improve by keeping faith in our way of playing. Cuadrado is available for selection; he’s enjoying himself in training and his head is in the right place.”

TRANSFER WINDOW
“Pasqual is an important player for Fiorentina and will continue to be for the foreseeable future.
I prefer having too many players at my disposition than too few, but perhaps it makes training tougher. Both managers and footballers have to get used to the situation.”

NEW FACES
“Badelj and Kurtic have prepared excellently and are ready to play. Richards is slightly behind them, though that’s not to say that he’s not available for selection, and Bagadur is a very interesting prospect.
I feel bad for substituting Brillante so early on against Roma, but I thought he was finding it tough. Maybe I had made a mistake in setting us up like that – it happens.”

GENOA
“Tomorrow’s match is very important in terms of our own self-belief. I want to see us approach the game in the right way and I hope it’s a good test for us, regardless of the result.
Ilicic, Babacar and Bernadeschi are all in good shape, but we’ll wait and see tomorrow. They certainly won’t all be playing together.”

CUADRADO
“Will Cuadrado slot into Rossi’s position? Well, I’d like to have played them together! Thanks to his quality and characteristics, Cuadrado can play in practically any position on the pitch.”

GOMEZ
“Once he gets one goal he’ll be up and running. In order to get the best out of him we need to ensure that he’s getting good service in the last third of the pitch. I think he’s at his most deadly with the ball at his feet, but he’s lethal in the air as well.”

ROSSI
“I really feel for him and just want him to concentrate on making a full recovery. Having said that, even if came back 80% the player he was, that would be more than enough for him to succeed.”

YOUTH PROBLEMS?
“I think we need to have a look at the bigger picture, perhaps invest in the quality of youth academy trainers in order to give young players the best possible start in the game.”

RONCAGLI AND MATRI
“They’re a couple of great lads and they’ve been set up to do very well. I’m hoping for a thank you from them both! Jokes aside, Genoa are a strong team with some fantastic players – they’ll make us work hard.” ]]>

Hello my friends!  Here is the  Serie A 2014 – 2015  Preview for  Week 2  for games from Saturday 13 to Monday 15 September after the international break.   We are just starting the season and it is still too early to have one solid candidate for the Scudetto.

One of the awaited debut  in this round is to see Spanish forward Fernando Torres with AC Milan.  Although we might not see Torres playing all 90 minutes, fans are  preparing to see him score and be one of the main pillars in this season.   Coach Filippo Inzaghi  will have to rearrange his formation because forward Stephan El Shaarawy is injured.  Most likely , we will see Keisuke Honda and forward Jeremy Menez plaing with Torres.

The two games on Saturday are Empoli vs AS Roma and Juventus vs Udinese.  Pressure for Roma and Juventus to win  their respective games to be among the top three teams.  Problem is for Juventus who might think twice whether to use forward Carlos Tevez not fully recovered or give him  resting time to be ready for the upcoming Champions League game against Malmo.  Plus midfielder Arturo Vidal also injured.

Inter – Sassuolo is also a game to watch.  Sassuolo still remembering the embarrassing defeat 7-0 last season!  It will be tough for Sassuolo to defeat Inter at the Giuseppe Meazza Stadium, but inspiration is high seeing forward Zaza living a good moment and even scoring for Italy national team against Norway.

The match Lazio vs Cesena still with the intrique to see Lazio forward Miroslav Klose or Djordjevic leading the attack. We might see the debut of defender Gentiletti too.

Good news is for Napoli vs Chievo.  Argentinian forward Gonzalo Higuain recovered and most likely leading the attack along Lorenzo Insigne. in corso.  Bad news is for Chievo because Schelotto might be out still injured.  Pressure now is for forward Alberto Paloschi and Botta to be decisive with forward Maxi Lopez.  On paper, Napoli shoudl win this game, but nothing is taken for granted.

Kurtic: "I wept tears of joy for Fiorentina"

< ![CDATA[ Jasmin Kurtic has only been at Fiorentina for a few days, but the atmosphere around the Viola camp already seems to have rubbed off on the 25-year-old Slovenian midfielder. From his tears of joy at signing for Fiorentina to his on-field position, here are the highlights from his press conference at the Stadio Franchi today: CAREER
“I think Fiorentina is the right place for me. They’re a great club with big ideas and they play fantastic football. I’ve been through tough moments in my career, such as when I nearly got relegated with Palermo. At Torino, however, we were fighting for a European spot and I found it a lot easier.”

MOTIVATION
“I want to show what I can do. All central midfielders must be able to play in various positions in the middle of the park. I’m convinced that I’ll be able to fulfil Vincenzo Montella’s wishes.”

TEARS
“I cried tears of joy when I found out that Fiorentina were going to sign me. I will give everything for this club. I was in my hotel for the whole of July and August waiting for a call and I also spoke with Macia. They told me, ‘Here, nobody is an automatic starter. Are you up to the challenge?’ I said I was, and then whilst I was on international duty after the first match with Sassuolo, I signed for the Viola via email.”

ILCIC
“He’s a friend of mind and it was great to see him again. In fact, he’s more than that; he’s like a brother to me and I’m so happy to have linked up with him here. I think he’s a great player.”

COMPETITION
“I’m here to play and I think that competition brings the best out of a player.”

ZAZA
“I always saw him as a very motivated, talented player and I wish him all the best in his career.”

MY NAME IS… JASMIN
“In Slovenia, Jasmin is a boy’s name. The female version is Jasmina.”

EUROPE
“I can’t wait to play in the Europa League, but we are also focused on the Scudetto and the Coppa Italia. I think that Fiorentina deserve to be up there in the top four, but we have to prove that on the pitch.”
