The bitterness of a scorching defeat. The quality of a ruthless Juventus leaves much bitterness in the mouth of Como and one of its main protagonists, the “mind” of the team as Cesc Fabregas repeats: the Argentine midfielder Maximo Perrone. And he, at the end of the match, is lucid in recognizing the value of the opponents, but without forgetting that Como played a great game: “Yes – he admits – for at least 60 minutes on par if not superior to Juventus. Then we dropped a bit, but we deserved more than what we brought home. Too bad, great test….”
Then his position on the field and return after almost three months off due to injury. Perrone confirms that he is Cesc’s (his coach) right-hand man on the field: “I do what the coach asks me and wants me to do, I feel comfortable and well inserted in this group. It’s good that the coach has so much confidence in me, I try my best and I hope to repay him. We always face important teams with our heads held high, we did it with Inter, Milan, Lazio and also Juventus.”
And finally, his future. Asked if he is still linked to Manchester City – the club from which he arrived last summer – he says that yes these things are taken care of by others. “There are agents, attorneys, I don’t know anything. As for me I want to stay here, grow and learn more with Como. I want to help my teammates and I am happy to stay with Cesc. I have a very good relationship with him. My future I hope is here with Como….”
