Chiesa: It s a pity that I didn t get enough playing time, but it s great to win the Premier League title

June 3: After winning the Premier League championship this season with Liverpool, Chiesa recently returned to Italy and reviewed the past season when accepting "Sports in Milan".

How to evaluate your first season in the overseas league?

"It's been a positive season because the chances of winning the Premier League are not available every day. Although it's a bit regrettable for not getting enough playing time, it's always a good idea to win the championship from the whole season. I've always been eager to play overseas. Before, I just moved from Fiorentina to Turin, living in different cultures and environments has made me grow a lot as a result, and I'm proud of my performance."

Are the Premier League, Liverpool and Anfield as you think?

"People are always talking about the intensity of the Premier League, but I also see very high skill levels there. I play with many top players, almost all teams have strong stars, and so are some mid-range teams. I was impressed by the enthusiasm of Liverpool fans, the atmosphere at Anfield is unique, Salah's performance is amazing, he deserves the Golden Ball."

, who is better than Ronaldo?

"I think Salah's performance has reached the level of the Golden Ball this year, and Ronaldo has won 5 Golden Balls, which is the difference. Salah has performed very well this season and deserves the reward. In my fantasy 11-man lineup, I will put both of them in, and these two can score 80 goals in a season."

Slot and Allegri both regard you as a striker rather than a winger...

"Under Allegri, I played second striker all season and scored a lot of goals. Slot also decided to let me try this position, and I'm very happy. If both successful coaches think I have the potential to play forward, then I believe I can do it."

What's the relationship with Slot?

"In the winner mentality, he reminds people of Allegri, but he has a different approach from the Netherlands. Although everyone thinks he may have difficulties with each other, he proves that he is a great coach with modern football philosophy and deserves to win the Premier League."

You were once regarded as the best player in Italy, do you feel that you are forgotten now?

"No, I didn't get too many opportunities to play in my first season in the Premier League, which is normal. Many of the reasons are due to preparation and adaptation to the environment. I am confident that I can return to the past level."

Is it just a matter of preparation or is it affected by competition?

"Obviously, it's a big impact not preparing for the game with them. I've talked to my teammates, and it's really hard. In the first six months, we had three times the amount of training that others had, and I had Salah in front of me. But I think I'm a player suitable for Liverpool, and the club believes that, so they signed me."

Talking about the goal of next season

"I hope this is a season that belongs to me, my dream is to participate in the World Cup, I've participated in and won the European Cup, and the World Cup will It's the peak."

Talk about goals for next season

"I want to break my personal goal record in the league, 10 goals, then the total number of goals, 15. But I know I can do more, I am an optimistic person, I hope to surpass myself."

Evaluate my performance in the first year of marriage

"I gave myself a full score because my wife is very happy. But I will still confirm with her...We are very happy, and this experience allows us to grow together."
