Fiorentina striker Mounir El Hamdaoui has been unimpressed by Serie A.

El Hamdaoui joined the Viola over the summer from Ajax, and has called football on the peninsula 'defensive'.

"I feel fine," he told Radio Blu. "But I know that people expect me to get goals. Italian football tends to be defensive, and this is a problem for us strikers.

"With Fiorentina though, we always try to play football the right way."
