Joao Mario: "I've always given my all in training"

MILAN - JoaoMario tonight made his first appearance of the season, putting in a fine performance away from home against Lazio: "I've always given my all in training in view of the first opportunity and I am pleased to have been involved tonight. The difficulties have helped me grow a lot and I am now doing my best to become a protagonist once again. I want to turn the whistles into applause and I want to thank the fans for how they responded tonight. I must make sure that I am ready when called upon by the Coach. I think that my ideal role is in on either side of a three-man midfield, but the most important thing for me is to play. I am at the team's complete disposal."
