Press conference at the start of the week at home Bari, with the striker Giuseppe Sibilli who spoke to the press after scoring the first goal of the season in Sunday’s match against Cittadella: “It’s honestly a liberation – reports the TV station’s website South antenna -, it’s normal for an attacker to have some mess in his head when the goal hasn’t been scored for months. In these matches I had the opportunities, I missed several goals. I’m happy, I’m expecting a baby and I wanted to make this dedication. My championship restarts from the match against Cittadella. The injury took its toll especially on a physical level, as I am a strong player, a flexor problem made itself felt. I’m not looking for alibis though, I think it was mainly a question of the head.”
A note goes to the group: “I see that there is a feeling with the team and with the new teammates. They are different groups compared to last year, the ranking position helps. When you come from twelve games without defeats, a climate is created positive and a harmony of a certain kind. Even when others scored, I was the first to celebrate. But this team is missing several pointsI don’t remember a victory that we didn’t deserve. There were comebacks suffered that were undeserved more than anything else. There are some little problems, we all realized it. It’s a mental aspect, sometimes we like each other too much. We need a little more malice, a little more concentration.”
So here is an opinion on the championship: “I think that the championship is very balanced, beyond Sassuolo who has something more. This team must believe in it, the ranking is a bit of a lie: this is the message I want to send to the fans . The next three matches are exams, they are the best matches to play, they will tell us a lot, they will tell us what we are made of. It’s November, we’re playing against three strong teams, two away and one at home. We need to score as many points as possible, perform well to understand what we can aspire to. In my opinion we can really aspire to a lot.”
Concluding note a Mister Moreno Longo: “The coach is really good, he makes everyone feel important, everyone has had their chances. He’s good at reading matches, he does it exceptionally. For example, in La Spezia he understood that he should have played a different type of game, well done to him and well done to us for adapting in that case.”
