INTER: MANCINI: "COLLINA IS A SERIE A REF"

/noticias.info/ Were you expecting Samuel's suspension to remain unchanged?
"I don't want to go back to this matter. I have already said what I think and I'd prefer not to talk about it again. My opinion hasn't changed."

What do you think about Collina refereeing in Serie B? There has been talk of a conflict of interest.
(Mancini smiles) "Italy is full of conflicts of interest... Collina is a great referee who must referee in Serie A, and if he signs a contract with a sponsor, all the better for him. He has been the best referee in Italy and the world for many years. I don't think he should no longer referee in Serie A just because he has signed a contract with a Milan sponsor. This is absurd. Do I have an explanation for it? Yes, the same explanation I gave for the Samuel suspension..."

Can we set Adriano off on the road towards winning the Ballon d'Or?
"The Ballon d'Or is usually won by those who win important trophies at the end of the season. He can do it because he has the chance of winning the championship, Champions League and World Cup. But it will only depend on him." .

Could Alvaro Recoba be Inter's extra weapon this season?
"I hope so. I hope he can put his great technical qualities at the service of the team, with the continuity he needs and which only depends on him. A goal a game isn't enough for him. He has the ability to do a lot more than he has done so far. Everything is always in his feet."

What can Inter fans who go and see the team expect?
"A spectator who goes and watches his team play only wants it to win. If it wins by playing well he's happy, but he's also happy if the team plays badly and wins. We know that we can play well and win. When you have quality players good play always leads to victory. The fans want the team to win the championship and enjoy themselves." notas_de_prensa_archivo
