Chivu calls for consistency
Chivu told Sky Sport Italia: “This is the last game in a run of important matches, we need to give a sense of consistency to what we’ve done so far, and I believe this is the right match to achieve that”
Chivu on Como’s quality
Chivu said: “Considering what Como did last season, it was an important match then too. They have quality, play good football, we know the difficulties that we could run into, which is why we must raise the bar in every aspect today”
A united approach
Chivu said: “We need a lot of character, determination on and off the ball, the right attitude and a single approach from the whole team working together, knowing what we need to do.”
