Giuseppe Marotta took the opportunity to hail the club’s fine progress both on and off the field ahead of tomorrow’s Champions League clash with Danish side Nordsjaelland.
In an exclusive interview with Radio Rai, the Bianconeri director expressed his delight at the way the 2012/13 campaign is panning out so far.
Here is a summary of Marotta’s comments:
Top player?
“I always hear people talk about a top player, but here we need to speak about a top team. The team unit is our true strength.”
Winning model
“The statistics enable us to make a full analysis and confirm that we have a winning model. This team has lost just once in 55 competitive fixtures, and we’re on a 47-game unbeaten run in the league. We’re at the top of the championship, with the best attack and best defence.”
Strength of the group
“We’ve gone for players who respect the rules and understand that work means making sacrifices. Our work during the week is fundamental to achieve victories on the pitch. The absence of Conte from the touchline is something that weighs heavy on us, but his professionalism and that of his backroom staff enables the team to be fully prepared for our games. We suffer without Antonio, but this gives everyone greater stimulation. The group is our strength and this is also evident by the fact that 12 different players have hit the target so far this season.”
Nordsjaelland
“We go into the game knowing that we’re the superior side. This is a fundamental step and we’ll travel to Denmark looking for all three points.”
