Casillas to Abbiati, "Listen Abbiati, we as goalkeepers are better to take care of the trophy. We won the Copa del Rey,man, now it is your turn with your Milan to win the Scudetto and Coppa Italia and see you next year to win the big trophy, the Champions League. We rule in Spain and your Milan rule in Italy."

Gigi Buffon of Juventus said to bring back Gigi Delneri in quotes with La Gazzetta dello Sport:

"Sarebbe un peccato che il tecnico pagasse questa stagione com'è successo per Ferrara e Zaccheroni lo scorso anno. Il mio futuro? Ancora non ci penso»

"It would be a pity if the manager paid for this season as happened to Ciro Ferrara and Alberto Zaccheroni last year. My future? I'm still not thinking of it."

John Elkann of Juventus, FIAT and EXOR about the future of Juve in a quote with il Corriere dello Sport:

«Alla Juventus è in corso un cambiamento che richiede del tempo per avere una squadra più giovane e più competitiva. Del Piero ha fatto un campionato molto buono quest'anno ed è in grado di guidare i giovani».

"At Juventus, a change is underway that demands a time to have a younger and more competitive team. Alex Del Piero has had a good season and can guide the younger players."

Francesco Lodi of Catania received high praise after his extra time equalizer versus Juventus:

«Pepe, Aquilani e Buffon mi hanno fatto i complimenti»

"Simone Pepe, Alberto Aquiliani and Gigi Buffon complimented me on my goal."

Massimiliano Allegri of AC Milan had an ironic quote about Zlatan Ibrahimovic in il Corriere dello Sport:

"Sabato contro la Roma riavremo a disposizione Ibrahimovic, a meno che non lo squalifichino nuovamente durante la settimana."

"Saturday against AS Roma, we'll have Ibrahimovic at our disposal unless they disqualify him again during the week."

Silvio Berlusconi on Clarence Seedorf in a quote with Corriere dello Sport:

«Un giorno allenerà il Milan»

*** Quote of the Week ***

"One day, Clarence Seedorf will manage AC Milan."


Adriano Galliani of AC Milan on Max Allegri from a quote at Sky Sports:

"Arrigo Sacchi never managed in Serie A before Milan nor did Fabio Capello. Leonardo was a director. "


Clarence Seedorf of AC Milan discussed his priorities in a quote with il Corriere dello Sport:

«Prima voglio conquistare lo scudetto, solo dopo arriverà il momento per pensare al mio futuro».

"First, I want to win the Scudetto. Only after that will the moment arrive to think about my future."

Clarence Seedorf of AC Milan was asked on Sky after the match the secret of his great form at his age:

"It's a state of health. I take care of my body. I don't drink or smoke. I feel younger than my age."


Javier Pastore of Palermo on his future in a quote with il Corriere dello Sport:

«Ho detto e ripeto che oggi, adesso, non penso a dove devo andare. Sabatini mi ha portato in Italia ma devo dire che non c'è stato nessun contatto."

"I said and I repeat today, now, that I'm not thinking about where I'm going. Walter Sabatini brought me to Italy but I must say that there has been no contact."

Note: Walter Sabatini may be taking a director's role with the new DiBenedetto ownership group at AS Roma.


Leonardo of Internazionale joked about late-game heroics in a quote at il Corriere dello Sport:

«Era tutto calcolato, tutto organizzato da prima, tutto perfetto così».

"It was all calculated, everything was organized ahead of time. Everything was perfect like this."

Giampaolo Pazzini of Internazionale sent a gift to his friends at Sampdoria with this quote at il Corriere dello Sport:

«Non volevamo che gli altri vincessero perchè glielo lasciavamo noi e poi ho fatto anche un regalo agli amici della Samp».

"We didn't want the others to win because it would have left us behind and then I made a special gift to friends at Sampdoria."

My quote: "One day you will manage AC Milan and perhaps the entire European Community."
