Falcinelli: “We’re very motivated and hungry for next season”

“I expect a lot from the first friendly today, we’ve worked a lot in these days and we know that the boss is counting on starting the season well. We want to do well right from the off and show what is needed on the pitch. Inzaghi asks me to do a lot off the ball, a forward’s movement is important for his style of play and I’m convinced that we’ll go far. I feel calm and eager to work. I’ve only just got here but by speaking to my teammates who were here before, you can feel that there’s the air of something new. There’s a desire to start again from zero and do something important.

3-5-2 is the formation that I prefer. In the past I’ve always felt good in that system. Personally, I’m giving everything and will do what the Coach wants.

Palacio? He’s a great professional and the fact that he’s still so fit and enthusiastic shows that he’s a real champion and I’m sure that he can help us in a lot of ways.

Ronaldo? His arrival will bring attention from all of world football to Serie A so that it could become the league for the great stars that it was before.”
