Sassuolo, Grosso: “Milan is the past, head to Sampdoria. In the past I was close to the Dorians”

The Sassuolo will take the field against Sampdoria in the 16th round of Serie B. Fabio Grossocoach of the Neroverdi, spoke on the eve of the match against the Doriani also returning to the defeat in the Italian Cup against Milan: “I don’t like everything quiet, ever. We have prepared well for this match which comes because it is an important and difficult match in which great determination, generosity and availability must be put because we know the opponent very well who has an important name and we know the difficulties. We have analyzed the past but as always we move forward improve our shortcomings and bring forward the our merits.”

Defense emergency?
“We have Romagna and Lipani unavailable but the others are all available. We have interpreters in all roles to make a great match because we need a great match”.

How sorry are you for this defeat in the Cup?
“I am focused forward, we use backwards to try to see the things that can be carried forward and done better. Like all things, beautiful or not, we carry them with us because they bring you lessons but I am focused on what it will happen tomorrow. It’s a very difficult championship every day and we have to be good at not finding surprises because we know we will encounter difficulties but we know we have the qualities to be able to overcome them.”

What are the difficulties tomorrow against a team that performed less?
“The first big difficulty could be this because it is a squad that has quality and has done less than expected up until now but within it there are players of great value and this is a wake-up call but we have prepared well for play a great game.”

How do you stay focused with these important numbers?
“There is nothing easy in sport, the matches are very difficult. There is a long way to go, we know we have quality and a young squad with great potential and this potential must then be filled as we have.”

In the Genoa newspapers today there was talk about his past, it was said that he was contacted by Sampdoria before going to Lyon. It is true?
“I had spoken to them but nothing came of it, I preferred to make another type of choice while respecting those who had contacted me a lot considering that Samp is a huge club and we had talked and decided not to continue the discussions.”
