Is it really incorrect to do that in English? It doesn't sound so weird to me.

It's the sort of clue that makes me wonder if English is the writer's first language. I don't know if this particular usage could be called incorrect, but it isn't idiomatic. If you are going for a strong, forceful tone shouldn't the passage be as formally correct in English as it is in Italian?

Of the two issues in front of you, I think the register is probably more significant than which verb form you choose here.
