After the words to our microphones yesterday evening, the sporting director of Bologna Marco Di Vaio he also spoke to the Gazzetta dello Sportpulling the strings, albeit partial, after this first part of the season:
Two victories in a row in the championship: but when you had only won one in 12 races, how worried were you?
“Worried and mostly sorry, given the daily work. You see, the results never disappoint: if you don’t win it means something is wrong.”
What was wrong?
“The pursuit of the aforementioned identity, fully finding players who hadn’t started at their best: look at Orsolini in the last three games…”.
There’s also another return: having Ferguson back is like…?
“Finding a diamond. When you have it you realize everything you lost without it.”
Let’s go back to today: Dallinga is looking for a “goal brother”. Solutions?
“Castro has six months’ advantage, Thijs must know our championship. He will arrive…”.
The statistics say that Italiano started the competitions above all with the “Old Guard”: isn’t the “market” breaking through?
“Well, Miranda had a great match against Lecce, but overall I believe that Italiano’s approach is logical and judicious. If we didn’t play every three days, and therefore if we had the possibility of extending the insertion of the new long sixes full training sessions, perhaps there would have been a different direction. Vincenzo is taking an accelerated course.”
For some, the team emerged “impoverished” from the transfer market
“It’s wrong to make comparisons. If we think about Zirkzee and Calafiori it’s not right to think about their latest version: let’s think about when they were trying to relaunch in Basel, Parma or here the first year. Then they became Zirkzee and Calafiori but they needed time and of the growth of the team around. Our market in a word? Consistent with the history of recent years, i.e. according to the direction of the investment”.
