Juventus’ Mauricio Isla admits he has lacked belief in himself at times this season ahead of his side’s match with Fiorentina.
The Chilean also said the Old Lady are extremely motivated to do well in the Europa League by the prospect of playing the final at home.
“You asked me the same question after the last time I played in the Europa League,” Isla said to the journalists gathered at the pre-match Press conference for the Europa League Last 16 tie.
“And that time I responded very sincerely that it what has happened in the last few months was my fault.
“I didn’t have the belief in myself that the club, my teammates and the Coach all had.
“That belief was missing but I have always spoken to the Coach about it.
“Playing for Juventus, the biggest club in Italy, is a source of great pride.
“The first year here for me has been difficult but now I want to prove my worth.
“I need to do at Juventus what I have always done with the national team and what I did in the last match.
“For us it would be fantastic to play the final at home, in front of our fans and win it.
“The match tomorrow will be a very hard one because Fiorentina are a great team, with players who can hurt you.
“But we just need to play our own game.
“When we play like Juve can, we can beat anyone.”
