D’Angelo: “I respect Pordenone. They have problems, we will have to be good at making them emerge”
Pisa, 23 October 2021 – Attention and respect for the opponents, but a clear awareness of their means and a group that returns to embrace some of the players who were out due to injuries and other unavailability. The coach of Pisa Luca D’Angelo anticipates the themes of tomorrow’s match at Pordenone.
CONVOCATIONS – “From the selfish point of view – said the technician referring to question of the players in the national team – it is obvious that it would be better to always have everyone available, but going to is a reason for national satisfaction and gives prestige to the choices made by our managers. The more they go to the national team, the stronger the players we have. Last week they only trained to finish and were very tired, so the choices were made with this in mind. However, those who played did not deserve to lose, but sometimes the results affect some evaluations “.
THE PORDENONE – The opponent has one point in the standings e has just changed coach, with the return of Bruno Tedino on the bench. “I think Pordenone is a good team that does not achieve results – D’Angelo said -, he changed coach and this is a further difficulty for us. We know we have to play a game of great tactical intelligence. We trained to face both modules, both 4-3-3 and 4-3-1-2. If I say that Pordenone is a good team I am not saying it because I have to protect a possible negative result, it is wrong that we start as favorites, first of all because we play at home and for the fans who will fill the stadium, but we must not think that it is a match. easy. I know the value of Pordenone players and many of them played in the playoffs for Serie A. They have problems, but it’s up to us to highlight them. “
ENTHUSIASM – Less enthusiasm, but an important job by Pisa in the course of week. “Obviously there has been less enthusiasm this week than in previous weeks – D’Angelo participated -, but the team trained well. There will be a great game to play without the danger of underestimating someone. The prices of two months ago gave us with Pordenone on par “.
FORM AND INJURED – The Pisa recovers many of his injuries. “The players are all available, except Berra – said the Nerazzurri coach -. Quaini is also back to training. Siega is back in the group, but before December he will be in good shape. Robert has also returned from leave. The captain is fine, he had a small problem after Reggina, then he trained well, but he came back and tomorrow he is available both from the first minute and in the match. “
LORENZO LUCCA – The striker Lorenzo Lucca remains the man of the moment “It would be easier for me to always play – declared the coach of Pisa -. When I make the choices the situations I pay attention to are the physical condition, unless it is Maradona or Ronaldo (The phenomenon) it is difficult to play in imperfect conditions. He had played two games in four days in Lucca and had trained only once, it would have been wrong to play. Another thing I pay attention to is the tactical point of view. He is the center of attention, but he lives it normally “.
RENEW – During the week there were the renewals of Sibilli and Marin. “The more content it will be they who will earn more – D’Angelo joked during the meeting with journalists –. They deserve it, if I think that Marin when he came to us was not even among the most advertised, but he saved himself a great space and is now part of a national squad as important as Romania. He will never be the new Hagi, but he is a player who has had tremendous growth. Sibilli we took it from Albinoleffe and it has had a very important growth “.
CHOICE – Finally, the topic shifted to technical choices a a few hours after the spin between Pisa and Pordenone. “Hermannsson can play central from tomorrow or act as full-back – D’Angelo said –, in Caracciolo I did not think about the warning sincerely. I don’t do this kind of evaluation. Cohen comes from a completely different championship from ours, I see him growing more and more, he may soon have more space. He understood what kind of game is being played in Italy and he is more and more into our team. He was less used to the tactical point of view, he plays a more open football, he immediately understood that he could improve this aspect. “
