Fiorentina coach Beppe Iachini speaks ahead of the final game of the 2020/21 season, the away trip at Crotone on Matchday 38 in Serie A.

ON THE LAST MATCH - "My time at Fiorentina has been unforgettable. These two seasons with Covid have been unique. I am happy to have honoured the shirt, this will stay in my heart forever. I will forever be a Fiorentina fan. I am happy to reach the 200 matches mark as a coach in Serie A. Being a coach depends on results, and criticism often on small details that can turn the course of events of a single game. Consistency is important, and we know we've done what we needed to do."

ON THE MOMENT - "We want to do well until the very end. I want to see a team that is focused, organised, on point, to get the maximum. This needs to be the mentality of any Fiorentina player. We went up the table, point after point, and we want to finish on a high."

ON CROTONE - "Crotone are a good side, they are organised, have some quality players, they have one of the best strikers in the league in Simy. Cosmi has done well and they managed some good results. 

ON INDIVIDUAL PLAYERS - "I would like all players to play, and will try to give space to everyone. For their team spirit, every single player deserves to have playing time. Pezzella is banned, Milenkovic will undergo a small operation, so we'll change something at the back, that's for sure."
