“Rome is difficult? Now I understand why”
ROME – Another big match at the gates. After the matches against Juventus and Napoli, the Rome is ready to face tomorrow night at the Olimpico on Milan by Pioli. this afternoon José Mourinho spoke at the press conference to present the match against the Rossoneri.
What does this match against Milan represent?
“Personally I like to play against the best and I think I convey to the players this feeling of facing higher in the standings and with different goals from ours. There are no problems, but only motivations. When I was in Italy, Pioli did not coach in Serie A. Tomorrow I will have the pleasure of meeting him and greeting him before and after the game. His work has something similar to what I have to do here. He has a lot of merit in what he is doing, but it seems to me that it is a job. of the club: behind him there are people like, to give an example, Maldini and there is a stable structure, a squad that improves in every transfer window, an evolution of the club. “
Will the unsubscribe return?
“You are more interested in the not called up than in the called up. The players called up are the same as in the last game, except Volpato. I like to take on 3 or 4 players from the Primavera, which is why Volpato or Missori will not be there”.
Mkhitaryan?
“The loyalists are all those in the squad, unfortunately there can only be 11 players on the pitch, I can’t summon all of them. Mkhitaryan is doing well, he’s not a kid, he played with Napoli and 45 minutes with Cagliari. I changed him because I got involved. We needed more depth with El Shaarawy, whom I like a lot. If he plays?
Training?
“It won’t be the same, but very similar.”
Spinazzola are you coming?
“Well, the Prof. who operated on him followed him for two days with us. I prefer not to say when he comes back, I prefer the positive news on his path”.
On the latest races.
“We want to score more and suffer less. We played against strong teams like Huventus, with whom we scored a goal. The important thing is to get to the game with the feeling of being able to win. To do that you have to defend yourself well and I think we are improving. piano piano “.
Is there a problem in big matches? Do we have to win with Milan?
“You always have to win. Always. With Napoli we saw a team that wanted to win. Tomorrow it doesn’t change, it will be the same with Venezia. Tomorrow we may not win, but we will certainly enter the field with the desire to do so. same stage for this reason, as well as passion.
How does he defend himself on set pieces?
“Don’t skip the opponents. Sure it’s difficult to have control of the game for 90 minutes, there is always a moment when the opponent comes out. Milan have Ibra and Giroud who are very difficult to mark.”
Roma takes many goals in the first minutes of the second half.
“You could have said that we enter well at the start of the game and never concede any goals. You only see the negative. It would be more frustrating for me to enter the field and concede goals in the first 5 goals. I congratulate you for finding the negative thing. not called up, instead of seeing the under 20s on the bench. I begin to understand protection because everyone says that the square in Rome is difficult, elsewhere you feel a little more than and here maybe it’s difficult for that too. But that’s okay, it’s fun even so”.
