Every story involving a verdict has two sides. Although it may seem obvious, I'm not sure we really take it into account, especially when an English team is co
mpeting for a European prize.
It's wonderful to observe the anticipation surrounding West Ham. Although it would be big for them to win the Europa Conference League, their fans have traveled to Prague in great numbers, so don't assume they are the only ones who have hopes. Just as strong is Fiorentina's feeling of destiny.
I will always have a soft spot in my heart for Fiorentina. Despite my initial reluctance, I joined them in September 2014 on a temporary basis, and after a few weeks they were expelled. The chance to immerse myself in another culture in one of the oldest cities in the world ended up being one of my best choices.
This team was aware that it couldn't go head-to-head with Serie A's powerhouses.
nevertheless it was the ideal setting for up-and-coming talent for a season. Federico Bernardeschi, Mohamed Salah, Marcos Alonso, and Stefan Savic were all members of our team. The experience was offered by Mario Gomez, Marko Marin, and Alberto Aquilani.
In terms of how football is viewed in the city, I'd compare it to Newcastle or Liverpool. Florence residents are smitten with their squad.
My favorite memory is the Coppa Italia game against Juventus in Turin, which we won 2-1, when Salah scored a goal that made it clear to me that he was headed for greatness.
Despite all chances, the outcome was successful, and the reception we received was unlike anything I had ever experienced. When we returned to the station in the middle of town, spectators lined the streets and ran after the bus as it sped toward the practice field. You might have mistaken the opening leg of a knockout game for the World Cup finals.
And that is what I mean when I say that passion is a two-way street. The 1961 Cup-Winners Cup was the only European trophy Fiorentina has ever won, and the last time they
Sofyan Amrabat will be charged with trying to give Fiorentina a high they haven't seen since Gabriel Batistuta's reign, and his matchup with Declan Rice will play a significant role in determining which team wins the championship.
Although I have a soft spot for Fiorentina, I would be delighted to see David Moyes get his due. Since David sent Dickson Etuhu, a former teammate of mine at Manchester City, on loan to Preston, I've closely tracked him.
He is a guy of convictions, his employees work tirelessly, and he continuously demonstrates his abilities to everyone. Now is his chance to score a prize.
