Major success last Sunday in Lecce for Delio Rossi's men, who pushed Palermo further in the league. 'With every win in Palermo it is said that there is the smell of the Champions, but with every defeat there is talk of a disastrous season: a better balance is needed” -  Palermo president Maurizio Zamparini talks to Radio Toscana. “Palermo and Udinese play good football, though, apart from Inter and Milan, I think there is greater equality in this serie A. I am convinced that the scudetto can only be lost by the Nerazzurri, even if no one has the battery of strikers like the Rossoneri. There are three or four teams after Pastore, but he wants to stay in Sicily, and I hope to keep him next June. He will never go to Juventus because the Bianconeri do not have the budget to buy him and cannot afford him. Ilicic is a great player as well, like Hernandez and Pinilla: they are the certainties of this Palermo'.

'I am not interested in Gilardino, having four strikers, buying also Gonzalez, already taken from Novara for the upcoming season. The difficult moment for Fiorentina depends on the change of coach and other factors, such as injuries, but I am convinced that Della Valle will be able to take them out of trouble. Mutu is a champion, and because his is from the East is a bit weird, like Chivu who did what he did last Wednesday. You have to be a like a father with players like that'.
