Speaking at the press conference at the end of the drawn match against Bologna, Alberto Gilardino he said he was satisfied with the victory, preferring not to delve into the subject of Balotelli: “I have never had any doubts about these guys. They are all centered in this project and everyone wants to give and do something for this team. It will be an uphill championship, we must be good at correcting mistakes. We changed the game system but I reiterate the happiness with what we demonstrated on the pitch.”

Pinamonti’s brace?
“He’s the lifeblood for the attackers. He worked hard and when two goals like that arrive they are very important.”

The 4-4-2?
“We had the courage to risk it, I tried everything. He proved us right today but we need balance. We know how to play as a three, the moment we decide to change during the match or from the start is important.”

Balotelli?
“Let’s enjoy Andrea and this point. I know Mario, I played with him, I know his technical qualities. We will make some evaluations in this sense, we will have to evaluate the period of the unavailable players and when they will return. The recoveries of Vitinha and Messias are fundamental, I’m talking about the forwards Three weeks ago I said it was difficult to find ready free agents, now I say let’s evaluate.”
