DEFENSE. “With Cagliari and Inter they were different. With the Nerazzurri net of the two gifts then the team made the courageous performance it had to make. Then between us and them there are categories of difference. But in any case we are talking about something different from Cagliari.”
PARMA. “I don’t know if they will have psychological fallout from the goals they took at the end with Milan, only Pecchia can know that. It’s a team that plays, with different characteristics than ours, more Como or Venezia style. It’s a tough, complicated challenge that will stress us on the level of tightness and psychological. I have to analyze the performance, not the results, which can be liars like with Venezia and Lazio. I need the performance, net of individual mistakes.”
DORGU. “As of today he is still a Lecce player, and as such he is treated. Then in this case the discourses involved are many, the factors that influence as well, and therefore I will have to consider them in order to make the decision that is the right one for everyone.”
TYPE OF GAME. “Parma is a team that is let’s say open, that leaves several players above the line of the ball and has a lot of offensive players. When they restart, they are dangerous and we will have to see if they will be better, wait for them, attack them.”
FORMATION. “The team that I think is best will play, and this is not only from a theoretical point of view. I will choose the best formation based on what has been the work week and the various considerations that need to be made. It certainly will not change the football credo to be proposed.”
GALLO. “He is a player who if he plays with continuity does not have 90 minutes in his legs, he has 180. Lately he hasn’t had that continuity, so I don’t know if he will play the whole competition but he will play.”
NEW. “Veiga and Gabriel are an investment of the club. We need time to get to know each other, understand each other linguistically. As has been said they arrived to enlarge the numerical base of defenders. Then we need to train, get to know each other, understand. We are talking about young players with customs and traditions to understand. These are investments the club has made and to work on.”
BERISHA. “I was hoping to have him on the team. He is better, but not in such a way to be of the race, so we preferred that.”
