THOUGHTS ON FIORENTINA
"Fiorentina are doing very well, they have three points more than us and when they play they use the full width of the pitch. They have technical, tricky and aggressive players. Vincenzo Italiano is a good coach, who did very well with Spezia last season and this year he is confirming himself as a good manager. We have to play the right game at both a technical level and defensive level. We will try to do better than the last two league games."
TOMORROW'S TASK
"After the victory against Zenit we have to keep our feet on the ground and improve in many situations, for example in conceding fewer goals. We need a lot of balance and we have to work, as we are far behind in the league. To find continuity, we must do well in both the defensive and offensive phases. The team - apart from the match in Verona, has always had a good approach, but after we take the lead, we have a moment when we pull the plug and become vulnerable and it is precisely at that moment that we must raise our level of concentration."
SQUAD UPDATES
"I have the whole team available except for Moise Kean and Mattia De Sciglio. Paulo Dybala is an important player, this year I found him improved, he trains well every day and is growing in condition; as are Manuel Locatelli and Weston McKennie. Weston today is more orderly in his play, he is less frenetic and going forward he also has two to three favourable moments per game.
"Alvaro Morata played a good match against Zenit, he played less with his back to goal and this helped him. Kaio Jorge can play as first striker or paired with another striker in a supporting role."
SOULÉ'S ARGENTINA CALL-UP
"Argentina have called up some very young players in their most recent squad. Matías Soulé is a good kid, but you have to let him follow his path. The second team is very important because it anticipates the growth of the players."
