MORE ITALIANS – “I agree, it’s a plan we have for the future. We hope to be able to improve, I agree: we are in Italy and I think it’s right that many Italian players play for Como. I’ve already talked about it other times, it’s an important objective for Como: we hope to be able to have this conversation in two-three years with other perspectives”.

DOUVIKAS – “Does he have margins? Yes, of course he does. I am very happy for him, he does a great job for the team. He started the season playing a lot: he always played, in the Italian Cup, he scored goals with Lazio, he played with Bologna and Genoa, with Verona as a starter and scored goals, with Sassuolo… He played a lot, there is competition and we try to have a team where there is competition: in the rotations, without Addai, Morata and Diao we are a in difficulty, we have few attackers for the next matches. But I’m very happy with Tasos, he has the right spirit, the mentality of wanting to improve, both in training and on video and in the gym, and how he eats and how he asks for things. At 26 he has a lot to improve.”

CAQUERET AND VOJVODA – “They weren’t happy about starting from the bench, that’s right. But then they changed things: that’s what I ask of my players, even if today we made a few too many mistakes and conceded a penalty that could have reopened the match. These are things I’ve already seen with Udinese: we can’t be superficial.”

ATTACK – “Cerri is there, but with the market open he is destined to go elsewhere. We will invent solutions, Nico Paz can also play later if needed: January will be an intense month and we are short.”

BUTEZ – “I think he is underrated, I don’t see many goalkeepers like him around. He is also fundamental in training, he has the predisposition of a champion.”
