“There is this habitual sensation of the fans being disappointed in the stadium. We’ll fight to the end. If someone crumbles at the first hurdle, then he is a failure in life. If he doesn’t want to be a failure, he keeps fighting to the end. It’s not just who finishes first that wins. We all win if we play with capability and fervour.
“I mean, if I had created a €200m debt with the banks to sign one player, what would be the point in winning? Let’s think of the right recipe for success, here.”
- Aurelio 'trophies only build the ego' De Laurentis
