Gasperini: the conference after Roma-Fiorentina

A deadly poker in the perfect weekend. Roma crushes the now safe Fiorentina and moves to -1 from fourth place occupied by Juve and -3 from Milan, also overtaking Como. A match without history with Gasperini’s team finally back to full strength. The coach enjoys the goal and shows off his best smile. “We have been changing the quality of play in attack for some time. Even today we scored with different players and after good actions. We are in a good moment, but we know that we must not do anything wrong to still have a chance of going to the Champions League. Morale is high and matches in Serie A hide dangers. Let’s see what happens.”

The coach still talks about the many returns after injuries. “I have recovered many elements as I had in October-November, with everyone available we can compete and the results can be seen – reiterates Gasp -. From a moral and character point of view it is a very strong team, I have never needed to keep it under control. It has stood on its own since I arrived, in this sense there have never been any problems. In these last few weeks there has been great unity between me and them and they have given me great responses. The Champions League would be a fantastic goal. These guys are commendable, and in this period I see them even stronger. We are like we were in the first leg but with one more Malen”.

the future

Questions about the future are inevitable given the presence of the Friedkins. “How can we improve? We’ll see in another venue, now there are three matches that we can’t make mistakes and we must also hope that someone doesn’t do the same – replies Gasperini -. I’m in the present, for the future there will be the right time to talk about it with the owners”. Corbin Friedkin was in the stands today and Ryan is also expected to arrive next week. The choice of the next sporting director is also on the table. In this regard, Massara avoided uncomfortable answers: “I have always thought and worked for the present and future of Roma, I don’t want to comment on Gasperini’s words.”

Gasperini also sends a signal to the club: “We have never given up. No one has ever asked us for the Champions League objective, we set it ourselves and we are doing everything we can to get it. The club will need to avoid the misunderstandings we had this season. Maybe we didn’t understand each other well at the start and this created problems. We need greater clarity and we will seek it. Maybe with a few more reinforcements we would have achieved even higher goals. This team has a strong base. But if I have to work I have to work do it with my ideas, if I have to do it with other people’s ideas I’d better find another place.”

the derby

The coach also intervened on the time of the derby (probably at 12.30 on Sunday) contested by Sarri also given the simultaneity with the final of the tennis internationals. “The problem is that there are no other times – Gasp smiles -. I don’t think anyone is happy to play at that time. But they explained to me that you can’t play in the evening due to public order, on Monday at 6pm it would be even worse. Isn’t Sarri coming? But yes, you’ll see that he will come.”
