Leonardo: 'Berlusconi? Respect. Inter is like Ayrton Senna'
"I ask for respect and give respect". Leonardo answers to questions about the sex scandal that is engulfing Silvio Berlusconi, his former president at Milan.
Inter's Brazilian coach said in a press conference on the eve of the match against Cesena: "The approach to the match is very important, I want to see the same beginning as Saturday with Bologna, it was almost perfect. We must only think of ourselves, without making calculations of the rankings because it would be a mistake. We must not underestimate anyone. Inter never looks at matches for importance, or it would not have won so much for so many years. The team has the incentive to do well, but also for the pleasure of the game even though in Italy it is difficult because the opponents are always very tactically aware".
"It's not my Inter, it is just Inter. This team has won everything and has important features such as intensity, speed and willingness. It was not me who invented these players; they know what they want and what to do. Inter is always thinking to win,it is in its Dna. If Ayrton Senna started 25th, he would still think about getting there first".
"Thiago Motta has not being called, but this is not a serious problem. I do not consider him injured, he just needs to rest. Muntari is in the team. We will decide with the club what to do, but he seemed good these last few days. Coutinho is not yet available, but is back in the group. Samuel and Suazo are out with major injuries, but they are working. Julio Cesar is on the mend and then there will be a period of preparation to return like the others. Eto'o reminds me of Weah, they are the two most important African players in football history ".
