Although it is still early October, the coach of the Italian national team Luciano Spalletti has already had to deal with a series of injuries that have kept some players out of the squad. In addition to the long-term patient Barella, the coach from Certaldo will also have to give up Moise Kean, who has returned to Viola Park after a lumbar problem. Could the reason for the many knockouts be found in too many matches? Not according to Spalletti, who said from the Coverciano retreat: “Too many injuries caused by the fact that you play too much? For me that’s not the case, you have to be equipped to play a lot.
And when the results don’t arrive it shouldn’t be said that it’s the fault of the reserves. If we continue to think like this we end up clinging to alibis”.
