During the presentation of two new signings for the rossoneri, Alberto Aquilani had to say:“I’ve been here now for ten days, so I’ve had time to acclimatise to the fact that I’m at a great club, one of the most important in the world. Now it’s time to get going, with training, games, and we are charged and ready. Pirlo? It’s wrong to compare us, we are both very different, he’s a top player and to be mentioned in the same sentence as him is an honour.
Every player wants to be a part of Milan. I only realized that I could come here two days before I did, it was a rapid deal. Milanello is incredible, there is absolutely everything here and I’ve been pleasantly surprised how kind everyone is, it really is a huge family. I want to sign permanently and play my career here. In the previous year at Juventus I wasn’t playing in my favourite position, but in a four man midfield I can play as an attacking midfielder or on the left wing, which is the position I feel is most natural to me, but don’t ask me about Mr.X. Lazio and Barcelona will be two difficult games, Lazio are strong and everyone knows about Barcelona, but still we are Milan and teams should be worried about us too. I’m grateful to Juventus, they brought me back to Italy and I got back in to the national side and I played in many matches last season. Totti is still the symbol of Roma who are a good team ready to start a new cycle, but he doesn’t deserve all the criticism. They need to be patient there with a new coach and new tactics.
“For the national side it’s all about what you do at your club, so it’s important to give your maximum. For us the national team means a lot and we’re delighted to have qualified yesterday. In England I had a great time, they really live for football there, off the field it can be heavy going, especially because I’m from Rome but in football terms it’s number one there. I enjoyed playing there and I would recommend it if anyone asked me for advice. It wasn’t ideal that I didn’t always play but when you’re playing regularly it’s great there. In Allegri I have noticed great determination and all the players speak highly of him. I’m not planning on being on the bench, players do their talking on the pitch, anyway I can’t wait, it’s going to be a great experience."
