Lazio midfielder Felipe Anderson is not fazed by criticism of his form – “that’s football”.
The Brazilian was the Aquile’s star man last season, with 10 goals and seven assists, but has had initial struggles this term.
“It’s normal in football, when everyone expects a lot from you, they criticise a lot,” Anderson said in a Press conference ahead of the Europa League tie with Saint-Etienne.

“It’s normal in football, when everyone expects a lot from you, they criticise a lot,” Anderson said in a Press conference ahead of the Europa League tie with Saint-Etienne.
“Of course, we’re at the beginning and no-one is happy. That’s football, if you do well you’re the best, the next day you’re not.
“I’ve never felt that I’m the best, I worked well with the team, and everyone got goals. I’m an important player who can make a difference, but I never thought like that.
“I’m like everyone else, I have to work and run for the team. It’s more difficult when an opponent knows you, now I have to make the right choices.
“I can only repeat myself, I know I have to do better, I have to work to grow.”
