Alessio Dionisicoach of Palermo, spoke in a press conference directly from the retreat of the pink and black team after the defeat in the friendly against Rappreswil. These are his words reported by ilovepalermocalcio.com
“At the moment the condition makes the difference, they are much further ahead. We are looking for continuity, those who have played have had no problems. I am not satisfied but I expected this, we have a lot of room for improvement. We want to build and the goal is May. We are in full construction, today we were missing players. I am happy with those who have arrived, we always have to raise the level. We have to bring in good and determined players. Nikolaou and Henry had little training, that’s why they didn’t play. Henry and Brunori are very good, but there is always a balance in the team.
Vasic and Saric? I am satisfied, they both have room for improvement. They are training well, the performance was better than the previous friendly. I expect more. Vasic is no longer a young player, he has great qualities but he must improve. He will surely find space.
Nicholas? We had to take into account the workload. He didn’t play as a precaution. Henry started with us, I don’t know if he’ll have minutes against Monza. They are friendlies that are useful for getting minutes. We don’t go after the result, we have to give continuity.
Mirrors? We met, I also met the president’s wife. Try to convey to me what Palermo is, try to convey to me the history of the club. The goal is to improve on what we did last year, we have to build with optimism. We know it won’t be easy.
If I was hoping for a more complete teamo? There was hope but it is also the last to die. The important thing is that the right players arrive. The new ones have integrated well, they have the qualities to raise the level of the group. Whoever arrives must raise the level, those who deserve it play. I am happy with who has arrived, I hope that the new ones arrive as soon as possible. The market is long”.
