FOCUSING ON SATURDAY
"I was happy to be back playing from the start, but unfortunately the game against Young Boys did not go as we hoped, but we were fortunate enough to remain in first place in the group. It's never nice to lose and today we spoke amongst ourselves, telling each other that we can't afford these kinds of slip ups in certain games. We are aware of our mistakes, and the Turin derby already gives us a chance to redeem ourselves and that is what we want. It is always a special game and there's a good atmosphere in the city, it's a sign of the respect.
"There is still a long way to go in the league. There are a lot of teams that don't give up and we'll have to carry our good form to stay in first place whilst maintaining the advantage that we have."
WHO NEXT IN THE CHAMPIONS LEAGUE?
"At this point all the teams are competitive, we know that we can end up drawing any one of the runners-up and whoever we have to face will be fine, although obviously there are some sides that are stronger than others."
