Guidolin: “I want a responsive match”
It is not the easiest moment, but the squad has been
working hard and is ready to react. On the eve of the delicate home match
against Cagliari, Udinese coach Francesco Guidolin talked about the marks (??) left
by the defeat against Lazio and about the prompt reaction the group is willing
to perform tomorrow afternoon.
What kind of reaction do you expect after Rome?
We are aware we played the worst match ever since we’ve been together, we know it. We need to react and play a responsive match. To do well we need to go hard and it didn’t happen in Rome. Now we have to find our characteristics (??) and put them on the pitch tomorrow.
Are you worried?
Cagliari are doing great, they have earned points through important performances. They are determined and they share our same target. I am worried as usual.
Is this crisis linked to the problems you had in last year’s second leg?
I want to move on, it’s not time to take stock. I have to understand the reasons, but obviously we would have fought to win the championship last year if we hadn’t had a drop (a drop in what, temperature?). We are Udinese, we respond on the pitch. We have to play a strong match and try to win. It is a tough period, but we can get out of it.
Why do you insist on Armero, who doesn’t seem to be as reactive as he used to be?
I have lined him up often, not always. He has played more (often?) also due to Pasquale’s injury. I try to be as balanced as I can, I can’t have the same players playing all the times (“all the time”?) on the flanks, and my decisions come from many little things I see during the week. Before the last international cap (game?), however, Armero was doing fine.
Too many players have gone missing and many young players cannot do their best because they have been catapulted into Italian reality a few months ago. Is this the real problem?
We will be playing with the youngest midfielders of the Serie A, not only for their age but also for their permanence in Italy. We need to be patient with the young, but patience disappear (“disappears”?) when things start going wrong. We keep calm, even if things are going as we expected. In a normal situation, our new signings (“our new players”?) would have adjusted in soon (??) , as Pereyra did last year, but we can’t do that now. Right now I have to take care of the players I have and give them a boost, because the match against Lazio was the worst my squad has ever played. We’ll come out of this soon.
Can Pinzi and Benatia be available for the match against Sampdoria?
I hope so, they would need to start training on Monday. I haven’t decided yet, because I’m taking care of the available ones. But it might be a ray of sunlight.
Cagliari rely on Pulga and Lopez, do you think it is advisable to have two coaches?
I think they collaborate a lot, but I don’t know if it is a good idea for all of us, I think they did so because of rules. But a team is made of many minds which bring along their own experience.
