In his post-match press conference, after the 1-0 defeat against Bologna at the Dall’Ara, Lecce coach Luca Gotti also spoke about his advanced department: “I’m very happy with Krstovic. Dorgu, on the other hand, today is was chosen in that position to give compactness and solidity to the midfield with a player who has compactness and speed for offensive action.”
Pierotti’s inclusion was good. What stage is Sansone at?
“Sansone is improving his condition, but he still carries some fears with him given that he had a spinal problem and the phase of tackling and aerial play still involuntarily puts him in difficulty. Today I didn’t want to risk it first because I would also have had to substitute players who were doing well, but I wanted to lean on the wisdom of two players like Rebic and Sansone.”
How much is this team yours today?
“There is a Lecce from last year and a Lecce from the new championship. 4 or 5 players have left and others have arrived, so new balances are being sought. Now we are in this phase of the game and of the championship, but that’s not a given that we will not experience anything else from here to the end of our journey.”
