Let's find out who the press have singled out for praise from yesterday's game at the Friuli.
Il Corriere dello Sport: Alessandro Florenzi 8
"We'd love to know what goes through his mind at times like those. What he was thinking about when he decided to launch a ludicrous 55-yard effort towards Marc-André ter Stegen. Or when he beat three opposition players, including the goalkeeper, in 4.5 seconds with the same foot, using his instep and the outside of his boot as if he were giving an open-palm slap followed by a back-hander. He's focused, busy, committed, a good full-back and then he produces pieces of brilliance reminiscent of Paulo Dybala. Incredible. That was his sixth league goal of the season, equalling his best tally in a Serie A campaign (2013-14).
Il Messaggero: Alessandro Florenzi 7
"He got in on goal on a couple of occasions in the first half and narrowly missed finding the net. He supported Mohamed Salah and defended astutely on the odd occasion the opposition posed a threat. He lit up the second period with a wonder goal (control with his instep before poking home with the outside of his boot), displaying great technique and superb attacking ability."
La Gazzetta dello Sport: Alessandro Florenzi 7
“He showed the humility to cover behind Mohamed Salah, the work ethic to keep Cyril Thereau quiet, who was right in his face, and the creativity to score a beautiful goal. That's seven for the campaign, a personal best."
Il Corriere della Sera: Edin Dzeko 7
“He bagged his seventh league goal, which was a big one because it broke the deadlock and proved Spalletti right after he restored him to the side following the Real Madrid match. He's not had a stunning campaign but it's certainly not been a failed one. As ever, he worked hard for the team."
Il Tempo: Edin Dzeko 7
“He responded to the stick shown to him by Spalletti and the fans. He scored with his first chance, held the ball up well and led the way throughout the match."
Tuttosport: Kostas Manolas 6.5
“The home side got very little change out of him."
