Juventus captain Giorgio Chiellini took part in a Polish broadcast alongside teammate Wojciech Szczesny, and spoke about an array of topics: "On the pitch I transform, it's natural. Now I am even more calm than when I was younger. I must find an enemy every match, for a defender the challenge against a striker is fundamental. Buffon and Szczesny? All of the goalies are different, in different characteristics Gigi is unique and Wojciech is different. But a particular thing is at the beginning, when I saw Tek as an opponent, he was always serious, he didn't speak much. We went to eat together his first week after arriving in Turin and he was a different person, spoke and laughed a lot."
"Leadership? It's something natural. Lippi told me something important, that the world class are those that help their teammates increase their potential. I believe it's true, even looking at various players like Cannavaro, Pirlo and Buffon. Cannavaro was one of the best at one on one plays in his role. Pirlo had eyes in the back of his head. Buffon is one of the best goalies in history. But the secret of their career was always the ability to help their teammates and the team."
"BBC? We are complimentary, when we played with a three man defense we would be near perfection. I didn't need to see Andrea or Leo, I know everything about them, their best qualities and their weak points. Mourinho said we could teach at Harvard? Yes, I would like to go, but for a masters in economics, not to give a defensive lesson..."
