On the eve of the match against Reggiana, manager Roberto Donadoni spoke at a press conference: "I'm on the pitch every day and I have to say that the lads have always shown great unity. In Cesena, this desire was evident in a big way, as they kept coming back to beat their opponents. Now we need to maintain consistency. We have a difficult match ahead of us, in which we will need concentration and temperament to turn a complicated situation around, but first and foremost, it all depends on us.
We are facing a tough run of fixtures, but this applies to all teams, and we have worked very well this week, with players such as Valoti, Bandinelli and Di Serio returning to fitness. However, we prefer not to rush Hristov and will manage his workload ahead of our upcoming fixtures. At this moment, having more players available will be really important, but regardless of who takes the field, we must not give up even an inch and must aim to grow and improve continuously, because the road ahead is hard and difficult, but we can have our say.
We definitely need to take it one game at a time, as we've seen recently, so we need to focus solely on tomorrow's opponents, who, like us, need to pick up points. I want to see fierce determination and absolute belief in our abilities, and then come off the pitch knowing we've given everything we've got, without making naive mistakes that could favour our opponents.
Did Cesena's goals come from mistakes in the build-up? When you're in a difficult situation, you have to understand that you need to limit the risk and not give your opponents easy chances to score, but certain mistakes can happen to any team. Think about what happened to Inter in the Champions League in the second leg.
Adamo? He's a versatile player who can cover several positions on the pitch. The players who have recovered are doing well, but when you've been out for a few weeks, you have to ease them back in gradually so as not to risk anything, especially because from here on out, the league will become increasingly tough and we'll definitely need everyone's energy to achieve our goal.
Mateju? He played well in Cesena and his versatility is very important to us. Defensively, the team can do even better, with conviction even in the build-up phase, where excessive tension doesn't help".
