Bonny: I need to improve on my back and header; the Milan derby is as charming as Real Madrid

Hupu News on November 15 Recently, Inter Milan forward Bonny accepted an exclusive interview with Gazzetta dello Sport. During this period, he talked about his current situation at Inter Milan, reviewed his experience at Parma, and looked forward to the future. The following is his interview.

Bonnie, after five months at Inter Milan, what have you learned?

"I understand that it takes time to understand where you are, to realize how big this club is. And then when you understand that, you have to realize that the level of the team is constantly improving, starting from the training sessions: Inter are very demanding and always ask you to do more, but I feel very good and I am learning... "

What exactly do you need to learn?

"Playing with the ball behind my back, sometimes I conceded some silly goals. Then improving your heading skills, but also your physical fitness, because we have a game every three days, and we train very hard. Even more so during the national team match days... In general, even the things you do well can always be done better. "

Who is helping you through this learning process?

"There are a lot of people, but it's easier to communicate with someone like Mkhitaryan who speaks French. Marcus Thuram helped me a lot, and not just from the time we became teammates: his advice was invaluable as early as Parma. He pushed me to improve, and so did my Italian teammates, who wanted me to always give my best and not have ups and downs. "

How did you feel about playing and scoring at San Siro for the first time?

"The first time was with Parma last year: I was dizzy, the stadium was so big, it seemed endless, it was breathless. It's different when you play for Inter Milan. I was lucky to score for Inter Milan very quickly. After the roar of the fans, in the noise, you can't hear anything. It's wonderful because everything is like a layer apart, only emotions are left. "

Who played a decisive role in choosing to join Inter Milan?

"Last year, in the 2-2 match between Parma and Inter Milan, Bastoni knocked me down and said to me: 'You come to us next year... '. I am very happy that he, Bisek, and Acerbi will all speak out in training to help push you forward. "

Chivu was also in Parma that day: How important is he to you?

"Very important, he always asked me to serve my teammates and play for the team first. "

So, what do you want to 'learn' from the game between Lautaro and Thuram?

"I want to have Lautaro's hunger in front of goal. To become the fourth top scorer in Inter Milan's history at his age is extraordinary. He always wants to score, whether beautiful or not. And Marcus Thuram can do everything, score, dribble, assist Maybe I have some more similarities with him, but we are different and can play together. I also want to learn something from Pio. There are not many people who can protect the ball like him. "

What comes to your mind when you think of the derby?

"Comparable to Barcelona versus Real Madrid in terms of glamor and scale. I still have some of the duels in my mind, like the ones between Dumfries and Theo. These were two great teams, they didn't hate each other, but it was a battle for those 90 minutes. Hopefully, in the end, everything will be dyed blue and black... "

But is this derby already decisive?

"No, because it's only November and anything can happen, but the derby is already important: it would be a good jump to get more points, not only against Milan, but also against Napoli, Roma and other teams chasing behind. "

Back to Parma, how difficult was that initial period?

"17 years old, another country, another culture, another language: everything was difficult... Fortunately I met a good team. The key man is Buffon: he speaks French very well and makes me feel at home, he is like an uncle to me... "

4 goals and 4 assists: how much can we achieve by the end of the season?

"I don’t have a specific number. In my mind, I just want to do better every year than the previous year. The challenge does not lie with others, but with myself. In addition to statistics, the most important thing is to make the fans proud. "

Can you explain in detail the origin of the photo of you wearing a blue and black jersey when you were a child?

"That was the first jersey my mother bought me when I started attending football school. She said it was the team of my idol Eto'o and convinced me to wear it. Maybe that was a signal, who knows. "

Do you think the outside world's comments about Pio Esposito are exaggerated?

"When you play at Inter Milan, everyone gets more attention, and in Italy he gets more attention, especially. He is young and has great potential, coming from the youth training system here and wearing the national team jersey. It is a lot of pressure for him, but I think he handles it very well, he has not changed, we don't like to put on airs. "

Where did that pirate-style celebration come from?

"It was a joke with my friends from my hometown in Tours, and it all started with a TikTok video that made us laugh. When I scored against Napoli in Parma, that celebration was born, it was a tribute and has now become my trademark. "

You love music and TV series: what do you watch and listen to now?

"I'm watching Breaking Bad, but it's hard to finish, it's so long... The last concert I saw was Drake's, and I went to it with Marcus, and it was really great. But before every game, I always play "Everything in Its Right Place" by Radiohead in my headphones. It may sound a little weird, but it relaxes and energizes me at the same time. It starts out flat and quiet, but there's something intense in it.. As for Ornella, you already know... "

Ornella said that she has received your jersey and hopes to meet you in Milan as soon as possible

"I am very happy that she has become an Inter fan. It will be an honor to meet her and have a cup of coffee or a meal together! The first time I heard her magical voice was in a scene from Ocean's Twelve, it was so... French. "

Speaking of which, finally, please tell me one thing you think is better about France and one thing better about Italy

"The bakeries in France are the best, sorry (to say that), but I admit that it is very convenient to have a bidet in the bathroom like yours (laughs). "
