Spalletti Pleased With Win

Amantino Mancini popped up with a second half header which gave his side all three points. Spalletti was full of praise for the Brazilian after the game.


“He is a great player, we know what he can give us and he has shown it in all these years wearing the Giallorossi jersey. No one can think on the contrary.”


Spalletti also revealed that he does not know whether Mancini will be leaving the club in the Summer after recent speculation in Italy suggested the player could be on his way out.


“Selling? These are things which are dealt with in the director’s office. They will think about finding a solution.”


The coach was also full of praise for his defence who dealt with Palermo’s strikers well.


“In the first half we were good and at the back we were excellent. Brighi played well and even Aquilani and Pizarro played good too. Aquilani came back from injury so it was a good chance for him to get back to form.”


The Giallorossi’s win would have boosted their confidence as they move within four points of league leaders Inter. No doubt the Nerazzuri will be feeling the pressure.
