The Grifone travel to Tuscany to play Vincenzo Montella's men on Sunday, but the Sweden international has admitted that the Viola are playing some fantastic football.

“The level of Fiorentina is obvious,” he told the club's official website. “They are playing some great stuff.

“They have a great midfield – they are my favourite in the League.

“We'll have to be careful, try and keep close and compact and stop them playing.”
