Augello: “Ranieri to Roma? We weren’t disappointed. The Giallorossi excluded from his words”

Thomas AugelloCagliari winger, spoke like this to Sky Sports before the friendly match at the Sa Duchessa against Cus: “We take it as training, we have to put in the effort and stay in shape. We are coming off two good matches, we played well both in Rome against Lazio and at home against Milan, but we have only scored one point. We are in a critical position in the standings, we need to win again.”

What a thrill it was to provide that assist to Zappa for the 3-3 draw with Milan?
“Zappa played the game of his life against Milan. My cross, his goal, a brace… I’m happy for him.”

And on a personal level?
“I’m happy with how the season is going. The coach gives me a lot of confidence and makes me believe in my abilities.”

Renewal?
“I hope so, I’m happy to be here in Cagliari.”

What he wants to say to his former coach Ranieri?
“I don’t have to tell him anything. I have great respect for Ranieri, I’m really happy. I hope he can do great things with Roma, he deserves all the best.”

You felt betrayed after his yes to Roma?
“No, the coach had said that perhaps he would stop with the clubs but in his words there was a small exclusion for Roma. It didn’t affect us in a sensational way. Ranieri couldn’t say no to his home, we weren’t disappointed absolutely”.
