He took over Lazio’s midfield by dint of interdiction and verticalisations Nicolò Rovellaalso decisive against Nice in the Europa League despite coming off the bench. The assist for the 3-1 by Castellanos and the verticalization for Taty on the penalty awarded by the Argentine striker. Rovella finally managed to find the continuity that he lacked last year, conditioned above all by the groin pain that tormented him in the second round. Baroni is managing it as best he can, trying not to overload the former Monza player too much who started from the bench against Nice after two consecutive games as a starter. Rovella responded with his first assist of the season and another top-level performance, which however wasn’t enough to earn Luciano Spalletti’s call-up.
Responsibilities with Baroni
“He is an important and fundamental player for me, he is a player who I respect and who I know how much he can give” he said Barons at the end of August. Nicolò Rovella can give a lot to Lazio but he is not yet part of the national team. Spalletti has opened the doors of the midfield to new elements with the call-up of Pisilli, but apparently the former Monza and Juventus player has not yet deserved the call-up. Among the six midfielders called up by the coach, the one who has the characteristics of a playmaker is Fagioli and the only alternative could be Ricci, even if he is still in the development phase with Vanoli who is trying to make him a pure playmaker. Frattesi guarantees insertions and goals, Tonali pace and intensity, Pisilli freshness and Pellegrini fantasy in the attacking midfield. However, the geometries combined with the ban that Rovella can guarantee could be useful for this national team and the Biancoceleste number 6 knows that with this performance in the Lazio shirt, Spalletti’s call will soon arrive.
