APPIANO GENTILE - Matias Almeyda press conference (1).
The Argentine contingent at Inter is larger now Batistuta has joined the club...
For us, and for me in particular because I'm Argentine, it's a great pleasure to play in the same team as Batistuta and Crespo, our national team strikers. And it's a pleasure also because Batistuta has come here with great desire. He has already shown he's a great player and a great person. To have Batistuta, Vieri and Crespo in the same side isn't something you see every day...
He won the Scudetto in his first season at Roma. Is it a pleasure to have him at Inter also for the sake of good luck?
We're not thinking about this, but at how important a player he is. We already have the Scudetto in mind.
What about his relationship with Crespo?
Everything's calm. There have never been any problems in the national team, the relationship has always been good. The papers have written about it, but it's difficult to explain why.
Is it better to have many Argentines in the side?
It's nice to have Argentine friends when you're far away from your country. But we're in Italy, we don't want to and we can't create an Argentine squad because all of us want the same things - the Scudetto and the Champions League.
Have you and Batistuta already spoken about your different experiences in Rome.
No. Now we're all Inter players.
