Casadei ha bisogno di tempo per adattarsi agli schemi di Vanoli: al momento, il titolare al fianco di Ricci è Gineitis
The lost game against Bologna has left yes regrets, but also insights to build on as well as observations. The first is certainly related to the great qualities of Elmas, then Coco’s current performance and finally also something about the management of the midfield. With Ricci disqualified and Tameze injured-the two starters of the last few outings-Vanoli changed by deploying Linetty and newcomer Casadei from 1′, who did not particularly show off. As early as the match against Milan, therefore, there could be changes.
Come può cambiare il centrocampo
In Saturday afternoon’s difficult clash, Ricci will obviously return, putting the armband on his arm and leading the team to the feat. At his side, however, given the obvious absence of Tameze could be Gineitis, who instead in Bologna entered only in the last half hour. In fact, the situation is clear: Linetty is now fourth in the pecking order, and taking away his captain’s armband is only the latest clue, while Casadei still needs time to adapt to Vanoli’s demands and to regain ideal fitness, having played little in England. The former Inter player is certainly not lacking in quality, but his first outing as a starter was not the best, which is why the coach may consider having him subbed in as the game progresses.
Sale Gineitis
There goes the way for Gineitis, who has started 9 times in the season from the first minute. The Lithuanian has not particularly excelled when he has played as a starter (one only remembers an assist against Inter), but nevertheless at the moment he seems to be the one best placed in all respects to be able to flank Ricci. There is still a full week ahead, however, so everything will depend on the training and the feelings of coach Vanoli.
