Fiorentina, Montella: "Ribery can win Player of the Year. Pedro still lacks intensity."

"We must put the same adrenaline and fear onto the pitch that we've put in this start." With these words, Vincenzo Montella looks to inspire his Fiorentina team heading into tomorrow's match against Udinese. Fiorentina has obtained 6 points from their last two matches and now needs to show that they can continue their winning ways. "We have started to walk, the game tomorrow will tell us if we can begin to run."

Everything is easier if you can trust in Ribery, who was named September's best Serie A player. I congratulate him for this recognition. We want to put him in the conditions to win Player of the Year. He hasn't started 5 matches in a row for years? I knew this." 

On the management of players who are playing less in this moment: "They can be our gas, the additional weapon to win the matches. For me, their management will be fundamental. This was a phase, it won't always be like this."

On Pedro: "He's feeling well, he's growing. With respect to the level of Serie A, he's a little behind in terms of intensity.  We see some great technical qualities, we hope to integrate him soon. We'll see about a call-up. The break? It depends on tomorrow's result. The team is well, there's a defender that has some ailments, I hope that he's well today. The formation? I don't have any particular doubts, I'm trying some solutions."
