The coach of the Bergamo team: “The numbers tell us that we played very well. And in the last twenty days we have faced all the big teams… Transfer market? We’re in the right place like this”
At 2-2 he tried to win it. He lost it. And now his Atalanta are third, but seven points behind leaders Napoli, victorious (2-3) at the Gewiss Stadium. Gian Piero Gasperini analyzes the match: “This is a defeat that we find difficult to digest due to the way it has matured and the numbers it has expressed, but this is football and we have to accept it. We have never failed, maybe in some matches we don’t we are at our best but in the last twenty days we have faced all the big ones.”

However, the Atalanta coach appears calm: “Today we paid for the result, sometimes things went better for us, but we are fine, very well, everything is fine. Today the performance was there and for our path it is not it’s a problem to lose a match. We don’t go after the result. Against Udinese we played subpar, but against Lazio we could have won and lost. Against a closed Juventus we played an excellent match, today we played better than our opponents, but we lost.”

Then Gasperini focuses on Atalanta’s commitments: “In three days we have the Champions League and we want to reach the objective of qualifying, then there is the championship against Como again and then the Italian Cup. We play all the time, we don’t have time to think to the defeats and because we don’t know when. Defensive errors on the second and third goals. I totally agree. If you make them against Napoli, you don’t performance, but as a team we have to react and the episodes have to teach us something.

As for the market, Gasperini is lapidary: “At this moment no discussion has been made in this sense. Let’s carry on like this. We haven’t talked about the transfer market since August. Kolasinac was missing today and Kossounou is sorry. We were a bit unlucky in this season already with Scalvini and Scamacca it’s not like you can continually buy players.”
