Zanetti: "Messi? We will see in the future. Injuries may happen..."
There was great anticipation for the arrival of Captain Javier Zanetti at the Rizzoli in Milan: anyone who had brought the book, “Inter 102, The Perfect Season”, would receive an autograph from the captain. There were about 500 people, in fact, with all kinds of books and Zanetti was very kind, signing autographs for everyone and posing for photos. Notebooks and cameras were also granted access. Here is a preview of his interview for FCInterNews.it:
What would you like to be in next chapter of this book?
We hope there is another chapter that brings Inter into history.
The many injuries at the beginning of the season are due to what?
These are moments that can happen, unfortunately for us, they have all occurred together.
You will be present Sunday in Cagliari?
Saturday was the last examination, we hope everything is OK.
Is it true that Messi may be the first coup of manager Zanetti?
I also read this, but Leo is good in Barcelona. We are talking about probably the best of all, but for now he is good there, then in the future you never know…I hope the possibility exists to see him one day at Inter…but at this time, there is nothing. We will wait to see where his career goes and then we’ll see.
He met you in Milan?
No, I have neither seen him nor heard from him, only that he was here for advertising questions.
He said that he likes Milan a lot.
Everyone likes the city of Milan.
What do you think about what happened yesterday in Genoa?
What has happened is displeasing to the whole world of football, unfortunately it happened in an important game and because of these fans it was not played. We hope that it does not happen again.
Did you hear from Stankovic?
After the game, no, I will see him tomorrow. They were all disappointed because they were there to play an important game, they did not play and even had their safety threatened.
These injuries are due to a change in preparation?
We should not enter into these talks, these are things that can happen, the important thing is that they are less severe than expected and that they can recover quickly.
Have you ever felt that someone was here against their will?
Who said this? Journalists and agents? Then you have to ask yourselves and these agents. I am captain of this team and I have never had this sensation.
Injuries may be related to the fact that this is the year after the World Cup?
There could be many reasons, the team has so many games and you play so much that sooner or later you pay the price.
You were out for a long time, you stopped for a month, what did you do in that period?
I enjoyed the family, but without rest I was only still for two weeks. Let’s say that maybe this long break can further extend my career!
In Naples, they are rewriting the history of the Calciopoli process.
They will decide in Napoli, we only think about playing.
