“Evra was absent at the weekend for personal reasons but he’ll be back for tomorrow night.
“We’re in great shape but it’s only March and technically we haven’t won anything yet.
“In goal? Buffon has been extraordinary for 20 years now. Neto will start tomorrow.

“Ultimately, all that counts is reaching the Coppa Italia final for the second year in a row.”
