Five points obtained in four races is not a bad result, but the standings of the Cosenza of points records only one due to the penalty to be served. This explains the last place of the Wolves in Serie B. Position that the formation of Massimiliano Alvini wants to leave as quickly as possible. Maybe even after tomorrow’s match against Sampdoria.
“I don’t think I’ll change that much – explained the Calabrian coach in the usual pre-match press conference in relation to the match (source TifoCosenza) -, I will continue with the indications that these five games have given me. There is a doubt in defense for a player who had a different training. Whether I play Ricci, Strizzolo, Sankoh, Mazzocchi, it doesn’t change. The team group counts, what they are doing is very clear, the balance is important. I don’t see any differences inside at this moment, it’s an advantage for us coaches. Whether they play one minute or 90, anyone is fundamental.
I have a staff that is working very hard and the credit goes to them, as well as to the director Delvecchio, who is always here on the ball. And this is reflected in the team. Since the first day we were in Cascia, the work has been carried out in a linear, clean manner. The field can bring you joy or disappointment, but the work is progressing well. We are down there, it’s true, but the climate reflects desire and trust on everyone’s part”.
This, instead, is his thought on Sampdoria: “Every match in Serie B is difficult. Even more so, against Samp, a strong team built for a clear and declared objective, we know that. We can’t wait to play this challenge, so stimulating for us and for the fans. We will put everything into the game. We are facing a high-level team, but we have already faced others. I think the team is ready, it is clear that we are facing a high-level opponent, we must be good at reading the game. It is a very physical team, Florenzi and José Mauri can play together, it is clear that if Mauri plays in the middle I prefer a more structured player next to him, because we must take into account the physicality that Sampdoria can have”.
