The former Lazio coach Delio Rossi spoke to the notebooks of Tuttosport of Marco Baroni’s Biancoceleste formation and Tavares’ performances: “I was impressed by his physical preponderance which is superior to the norm – he began – combined with a decent technique. Nuno is still a bit frenetic at times in the last play, but He has ample room for improvement and can become a top player in his role.
Where can Lazio go? Inter, Juve and Napoli have something more and will compete for the Scudetto – he continued -. However, Lazio can return to the Champions League and will compete for fourth place with Atalanta and Milan.
What does Lazio need on the market? What’s missing is a Leiva who launches at forty meters and verticalizes. I like Rovella and he is doing great things, but we need another option in midfield. Just as in defense I would take a young left-handed central defender to develop behind Romagnoli. A player I would like to coach? The one who intrigues me the most is Isaksen. In my opinion, not even he is aware of all his talent – concluded Rossi -. I still see him as too shy when he plays, as if he doesn’t realize how strong he is.”
