Hi everyone,

Well, it was back to Serie A at the weekend for the home match against Palermo. It was another great result at the San Siro for the team and our fourth win in a row. Confidence is high at the moment and we’ve hit a great run of form going in to the last few matches of the season.
We know we’re still seven points behind Inter, but if they continue to drop points and we can keep winning, who knows what might happen? We’ve just got to keep concentrating on our own form and see where it takes us. We’ve overtaken Juve in the last few weeks and we going to do our best to finish as high up the table as possible, starting with next Sunday’s match against Catania.
That’s all for now.

Take care,

David
