The technician struggles to speak, heavy air in the rossoblù house “I’ll talk to the boys, there are so many things to fix”
CAGLIARI. Even yesterday it took him a few seconds to take off his jacket. Perhaps Walter Mazzarri immediately understood that it was going to be a bad night. The Cagliari coach suffered a lesson from his colleague Andreazzoli, who won not only because his team scored two goals without conceding, but on a tactical level. Empoli showed principles of play, organization, character. The rossoblù have made confusion and committed a series of trivial errors, children of fear.
«I only made a change in the formation and it is not easy to explain this metamorphosis of the players. We went from the good test with Lazio to that one tonight is incredible. I told the guys that there is a lot of work to be done and today we will talk a lot at the second half. Seeing the less aggressive boys bothered me a lot ».
Mazzarri’s face is a whole program. It is as if a tank had passed over him. «I need time to find the balance – adds the rossoblù coach -. We suffer too much in the defensive phase, we need more attention. Movement of the ball was slow. They pressed us and we didn’t have the strength to react. I have to understand what happened and only by talking to the boys can I do it ».
On the module deployed 4-4-2 and also 3-5-2, Mazzarri explains as follows: “We have a squad that has quality and therefore we must have in our football DNA the ability to change the set-up at any moment of the match. . We will do it better when I have more time to work and fix the things that are wrong ».
A short press conference with only three questions. Heavy air in the rossoblù house and little desire to talk on the part of an environment shaken by a defeat that hurts.
«The race went better than I expected – the words of Andreazzoli -. I think the result is also tight for us due to the way the race developed. We were superior, we delivered a quality game. Confirmation that these guys can do well. We have been heavily criticized after the last two defeats, today we gave an important answer. It is a victory that will increase self-esteem ».
