“We are very happy because we have completed one of our goals,” he told Sky Sport Italia. “We wanted to finish top of the table at the midway point, and we have done that.

“It is fundamental however, that we continue at this pace. There are so many good teams in this League, but we have to concentrate on our own performance.

“We will continue to be hungry for points. We want to repeat what we did last year.

“I always give my best for this shirt and I want to win as much as possible with it.”
