What They're Saying

Inter Milan manager Roberto Mancini (via Football Italia): "We have to get quality players. Those kind of players can bring the team what it is missing. If we can get players with the right features, we can improve a lot."

Genoa manager Piero Gasperini (via Football Italia): "For a club of our dimension, it would be enormously satisfying to take part in a European competition, so of course I'd love that. In general, the overall growth of this side is the most satisfying moment of my career."

The In-Form Player

Hernanes has enjoyed a modicum of success this campaign. In 24 league appearances, the 29-year-old has five goals and an average of 1.8 key passes. He'll look to help lift Inter Milan into European competition on Saturday.
