Boulaye Dia insists he has no preference between different tactical roles after scoring twice for Lazio in the Europa League win over Dynamo Kyiv. \u2018Last season was not easy for me.\u2019<\/p>\n

The Aquile opened their UEFA account with a big 3-0 victory played on neutral turf in Hamburg and the striker was the star of the show with a brace, around the Fisayo Dele-Bashiru goal.<\/p>\n

\u201cI worked hard, because last season was not easy for me, but I want to do my best possible work, score and help the team win the game,\u201d Dia told Sky Sport Italia.<\/p>\n

Dia had been frozen out of the Salernitana squad last term, as he was upset at the failure of a deadline day transfer to the Premier League, then brought back in January with the team already practically relegated.<\/p>\n

He moved to Lazio over the summer on loan with obligation to buy for \u20ac11.3m, and already has four goals in five games.<\/p>\n

Ideal Dia start to life at Lazio<\/h2>\n

\u201cWe lost last Sunday against Fiorentina and it was important to turn the page straight away. We play every three days, there is no time to think about defeat.<\/p>\n

\u201cThis evening we played well, scored three goals and then controlled the situation.\u201d<\/p>\n

The Senegal international has been playing as a support striker for Taty Castellanos, but this evening was a centre-forward, so he was asked which of the two roles he prefers.<\/p>\n

\u201cI do like playing both. When I have a striker by my side and I am the support, it is the same for me. I am scoring goals, so it\u2019s not a problem.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dia almost had an assist to his tally as well this evening, as an inspired pass off the outside of the boot sent Pedro clear on goal.<\/p>\n

\u201cI have to make choices quickly and the pass has to be right, so it was instinctive. I would\u2019ve preferred him to score, but he hit the post!\u201d<\/p>\n

The striker made the move from Salernitana over the summer, but his family has not yet found a house in the Eternal City.<\/p>\n

\u201cFirst I play football, then I have to find a house.\u201d<\/p>\n
