The glass by Federico Castellani :: Siena Club Fedelissimi 1970
Unfortunately, the good performance of the second half on Saturday was not followed up, a few hours later, in Viterbo. Two sides of the same coin: on the one hand a proud reaction that led to a clearer victory than the same result against a titled team and a thud, even more deafening than the passive suffered against a very low ranking team: last clean. A Kafkaesque metamorphosis that confuses not a little the fans and probably also the insiders. To what extent the situation is the daughter of confusion and lack of clarity in the head of the coach and to what extent the team itself and its interpreters are responsible for this undeniable débâcle is the doubt that grips everyone. Do we have a strong team that suffers the negative moment of the conductor or the same is the victim of a group that has structural deficits that undermine its performance ?. Difficult to interpret situation that leaves room for varied interpretations. As reporters we limit ourselves to representing the facts and we leave everyone freedom of interpretation.
Half empty
Chapter concentration and attitude: team that appears empty, limp, inconsistent. Overall intolerable attitude without which trial and error of individuals we were not used to.
Organization chapter: in these games we have seen various interpreters and interpretations. Choices of various modules, even suggestive, but we have rarely seen a choral game resulting from a specific organization. Team that seems to live the acute hour of Disanto, now of Varela, now of Paloschi. But almost never the result of a team action: in a nutshell game.
Injuries chapter: nine muscle injuries not the result of receipts or trauma. Strains, strains, contractures and always serious ones often affecting the lower parts such as the calf, a delicate and fundamental element for a football player. This undermines the foundations of a forced team choices that can confuse and predispose to bizarre choices on the part of those who have to bring a credible formation onto the field.
Half full
The ranking still gives us some chance to return and is very liquid. It goes from second to sixth in a handful of points. But an important furrow could be generated in the light of the upcoming direct clashes. This feeds objective hopes that everything is very open at least from the second to the fourth position, a result for which no one would turn up their noses. From fifth onwards it would be a fiasco. We await the events and decisions to understand if we will have to proceed, from who is in charge, to drastic solutions or not in the knowledge that, by now, we will see the same team again for this week. We are waiting confidently and as usual we will judge on future results: the only litmus test for the fans. Forza Siena Forza La Robur
