-Can you give us an idea of ​​what you will say to players before training?

“It is clear that we are going through a difficult time and not so successful. This is the reality. On the other hand, for me, the future is brighter than the present. The pitch we play will be better. Players who are now out will be back. The new players who came to the transfer season have the prospect of getting better. Many things will change on their own, not necessarily by something one will do. I think we are working well so far. Just continue to work properly, and because of these changes I think we will be better soon. “

-All the fans talk about Bologna friendly. Do you think this game did “bad” on OFI?

“We can’t say it was a bad friendly. It was a very enjoyable and fun experience for us. Managing the future after good results is always difficult. Last year we had a successful year. When a new year comes after great success, it makes sense to be a little harder. Expectations are higher, because you showed that you can achieve something. On the other hand, we did it after 30 years, so it is normal to be very difficult to repeat next year, not impossible, but very difficult. So we didn’t miss our goal after this game. The result was good, but it was friendly, not something special. As for our goals, it is important to stay at the level we want, that is, from 5th to 8th place, and fight to reach the final of the Cup. In this respect, we are still within goals. We didn’t make a good start, but we have a lot of time and a lot of games ahead of us to achieve them. “

-What can you change in the team to solve the problems?

“We don’t have to do anything special, we just have to go back to normal. We can give our home games in good conditions, we can play out with teams that are at the same level, and play eleven against eleven. I don’t think we need anything more, just to go back to normal flow. “

-There is a feeling that the players give up in the game. How do you stop this?

“The players don’t give up. We had a negative start. After that, you can see the reactions. It is not easy with 10 players to reach the equilibrium, especially under these conditions. Beyond that we went into a new phase in the match, which was difficult, because it’s not easy at all. “

-What is your goal is to work on stopping?

“The interruption is always the same. There is a part of players’ discharge, there is a part of investment in the future, in physical, technical and regular improvement, and of course the preparation for the next opponents. “

-In Mars. Another away game, many problems. How will you deal with it?

“It’s difficult for us. Another trip. Players from the team’s offensive part will be missing, but this is an opportunity for some young children to enter these positions and fight for themselves and for us. It will be difficult, but we have to do it. “

-For Mars?

“Mars has new faces with a new coach. It has become a more difficult opponent than it has been so far. Is more competitive. Of course it has strengths, but it also has impossible. We should not let him feel comfortable. He must feel like an equal opponent, make it difficult for him and making him a football fear towards us. So we can get to the result we want. “
