Eve of the championship, after the break for the national teams, for Atalanta from Gian Piero Gasperini. The coach of the Goddess spoke thus at the press conference before Fiorentina, as reported TMW.
NATIONAL – “The situation is what we know, yesterday was the first day for many, tomorrow we start playing. But this is the calendar, it concerns many teams. Atalanta were one of the most penalized, but after this speech there is tomorrow’s match against Fiorentina. We have to get back to the championship quickly ”.
ZAPATA E GOSENS – “In my opinion Zapata is doing well, he’s training with the team and I saw him well today. Clearly I will respect his condition, he will be part of the team but I don’t know if from the beginning or if he will start from the bench. It is however recovered. Gosens I see him today, but he looks fine. Playing every three days there is a risk, but they are only bruises, he also played for half an hour with Germany ”.
MOSSO OR SPORTIELLO – “It is a situation that I will see tomorrow. Musso? The goalkeeper has a different performance, he does not have to run, but it is a subjective situation. Some have a quick recovery, it depends. It is difficult to make a general consideration. Musso arrives tonight at 10 pm, I decide tomorrow. It also depends on whether one sleeps while traveling or not ”.
FIORENTINA – “It’s a team that is in the top eight. He kept Vlahovic, a player who has grown a lot. The company has shown that it wants to take back the place we took from it. He added very important players, it is right that they have ambitions to return to the places they have always been. Tomorrow will be a good match, it comes a bit patchy in the preparation time, but it is useless for us to stick to this stuff. Every day must be enough, I hope to have some continuity of matches. We have gone from a period of numbness to one in which you are in the blender. Okay, let’s turn on the switch ”.
EXPERIENCE – “We have gained a lot of experience, we have more experience in playing close matches. The imponderable variable concerns injuries, but we have a good way of managing the races ”.
BUY MEINERS – “He is a quality player, he has an important foot. He is very young, a player has arrived in a very strong department, where there are two hyenas who give little. I don’t know immediately how much respect he can give to Freuler and De Roon, but he’s a guy with qualities. I don’t see him very defensive, but he has a well defined role. We have to give him the opportunity to join the team ”.
MURIEL – “I’m counting on him, even if the feeling is that he will have to stay out a lot. I hope to recover him after the next stop and after these seven games (five in the league and two in the Champions League, ed), then if we manage to put him on the pitch a game earlier even better. But it was a lot of trouble ”.
ZAPPACOSTA – “He presented himself well, he’s a reliable guy. The value is very high, but it takes time to fit into a team with certain mechanisms. Knowing us football is important, otherwise you make a team with all the best and with all the champions. In these two weeks we have trained well ”.
ILICIC – “The boy is motivated, he did a good preparation. Yesterday he showed up with back pain and stopped for this reason, I hope he can recover. Let’s see today and tomorrow if he can recover, but otherwise there are no problems, we know each other well ”.
ATTACK – “I don’t have to invent anything. Atalanta has six strikers for two roles: Malinovskyi, Ilicic, Miranchuk, Muriel, Piccoli and Zapata. Numerically we can play many games. The squad in attack, numerically, is beyond my habits “.
