3.15pm – The press conference begins
Tomorrow the match against Venezia…
“Today I am speaking in place of the coach stuck on the motorway due to an accident that does not concern him, tomorrow will be a difficult match, in these six matches many things have gone very well, others not, but we must maintain clarity to face a match against a team that will do everything to bring home the result, as always we will need an environment that helps us, our fans will give us a hand to face the match as best we can. We must take the field with the determination we need to bring home the result.”
Verona unlucky with injuries at the start, where is Serdar at?
“His post-injury situation led him to return to racing to have a physical condition that allows him to train fully with the team. I think that next week, which is the break, he will increase the physical part to try to be at available for Monza. In general, injuries happen to all teams, then we had all the injuries in midfield which clearly impacted the department the most and were penalized from this point of view. Then it must be said that we also penalized ourselves a bit alone with the expulsions”.
Are those called up to the national team a risk?
“It’s a nice thing but it brings you problems, there are fixed dates in which the club has no say in accepting or not the call-ups, it’s clear that the club isn’t able to deny the calls that the players then make also pleasure. We have to try to live with it, hoping to have fewer problems compared to the last stop.”
Lambourde exploded, was he really paid three million?
“We take young players that even the coach has the courage to let play. We have always made a virtue of necessity, then the young players must obviously have something because being young is not enough to play. In recent years the young people have given us a lot, to me we like players who are hungry, who want to make themselves known, but they must have continuity. Lambourde certainly has quality, we managed to get the player also thanks to his agent, we managed to get him on absolutely advantageous conditions. to value, he already has strength in his legs, he can grow but there are also others. Everyone must put their own little brick in place to achieve the result, everyone’s contribution is needed.”
What championship is this?
“Important clubs have arrived from below who can compete for important ranking positions. We have to start again immediately to get a result. Anyone who doesn’t want to start again shouldn’t be here. Nervous energy is fundamental.”
18 yellow cards in the first seven matchdays, are Hellas really that bad?
“In my opinion we are not very good, in many matches we have had few yellow cards, like against Juventus where we only had one, then these are data that leave the time they find.”
