Pazzini has been a hit at Doria and has scored 10 goals in 11 games.
“I’m still the same striker who never gets a goal,” Pazzini joked in La Gazzetta dello Sport.
“I am glad to have proved the doubters wrong. I think it all depends on what people ask of me.
“Here in Genoa the team play for me, while things were the opposite at Fiorentina and so I didn’t have a clear head in front of goal, even if I am grateful to my friends there.”
