The former Serie A champions finished 19 points behind league winners and rivals Inter last season, while they were ousted from the quarter-finals of the Europa League and Coppa Italia. They were also eliminated from the Champions League group stage after finishing third behind Borussia Dortmund and Paris Saint-Germain.
WHAT PAULO FONSECA SAID
Speaking to reporters, the Portuguese coach said, "I think in life you need to risk and that means having the courage to be different. We coaches have an obligation to people who love football, which is not just to win, but to have a ‘form’ that gets them passionate.
"We must create a spectacle and to do that we need courage, for those we work with to have courage and experience football with joy. That is my way of thinking. I think it’s fundamental we create a strong sense of identity within the team, which allows us to have quality in our play and ambition to win every game."
