MILAN - Davide Santon and Hernanes were today guests of SAP, the multinational company that provides software solutions for the business world. They're one of the world leaders in the ERP (enterprise resource planning) sector and, in general, in enterprise software solutions, as well as being a main sponsor of the Inter youth academy.
"First of all I'd like to thank you for the opportunity to spend the day with a company like this," began the Nerazzurri defender. "You've asked me about training sessions and tempo: Mancini's training sessions are high tempo, the first 20-30 minutes are spent running, before it's all ball work, possession and short games. The main difference between Serie A and the Premier League is that here it's more tactical, whereas English football is more physical."
Davide then touched upon the next game, against Lazio. "We've had a good week, we've trained well on the back of a home draw against Chievo which wasn't great. So we'll go to Rome to get a result and I'm sure it'll be a great match given that both they and we are playing for something important. We come into the game on a good run, besides the Chievo result Sunday's game is a test we have to come through. Lazio will take the game to us unlike Chievo, who sat deep. It will be a completely different match. Regardless of our opponents we know that our next - and last - four matches will be hard but our aim is to collect 12 points."
Hernanes then had his say: "I'd like to join Davide in thanking you all. The differences between Inter and Lazio fans? Here in Milan people are more discreet whereas in Roma you feel the pressure more. Personally though I really enjoyed my time in Rome. As for my diet, I eat protein on a daily basis and carbohydrates in the build-up to a match. It's essential to strike the right balance between the two and the medical staff give us a lot of help and support on that."
