Robin Gosens, Fiorentina wingerspoke to the official channels of the Tuscan club at the end of the match won 6-0 on the Lecce pitch: “These are the matches that matter even more. not for the points but for motivation and building a season. the points against these teams fighting for survival are never easy games but today we did really well.”
Last victory with 6 goals away in 1966.
“We had an excellent first half with three goals. Then there was the red card. In the locker room we told ourselves that we shouldn’t give up and in the second half we continued to move the ball quickly and play well. We showed that we wanted to score more goals and this is important because it demonstrates the ambition of this Fiorentina. We have important ambitions and that’s right because we want to aim high and the second half made me understand that we have the right mentality.”
Is the patience and time that the coach asked for bearing fruit?
“Absolutely. It’s clear that in football you always need results. If the whole team changes and a new coach arrives, it’s clear that time is needed. There’s always this discrepancy between giving time and getting results. But now we’re demonstrating that that time has been given to us and is leading to victories and great goals.”
He is giving quality, experience and leadership to Fiorentina.
“This is why I arrived. I put everything into every match and every training session and this is what I also ask of my teammates because only in this way can you grow. I’m here to give this inspiration. I’m happy that the boys are adopting that mentality that we need to aim high. There is an extraordinary group with quality. We have to demonstrate it on the pitch and now we are doing it every match.”
Conference League on Thursday.
“However, we must never forget to enjoy the moment. Today we move forward without ever stopping and instead we must take a moment to enjoy the victories. We must get it into our heads that when we reach a goal we must enjoy it. Then we start again tomorrow and we will think about the next one race but it’s not okay not to enjoy good results.”
