The patron of Bologna returns to the farewell of the Italian-Brazilian technician: “I’m sorry for the exemption, despite having left us that way”. And it raises: “Fourth place possible, we worked a lot to get to Europe”
“I didn’t like it as Motta left us, because it is he who went away, it wasn’t us who changed it: I would have continued. I didn’t appreciate his way and that of those who took him: disappointment”. With the usual measure, but also with strong concepts, Joey Saputo returns to the farewell of Motta, pricking him and Juve and at the same time applauding Vincenzo Italiano, “because we were lucky to find a coach who has the values we wanted”. The President of Bologna confesses to “Omninews” and the large range is also consumed in outlining the foreign properties that – as his – have entered Italian football.
Fourth place
–
Bologna fourth even a year later: it seemed impossible. “It is fine in fourth place -says Saputo -, but the season is still long, we have a tough calendar against teams who are fighting for the Champions League but being in fourth place, well, makes us happy. But the season is not yet over … if they had told me, in August, that at nine days we would have been fourth? That in the past he had brought his club in the international field: we have not started how we had to start, but when there is a change is everything more difficult but we brought the players that we thought appropriate to get to where we are.
Disappointed by Motta and Juve
–
Then here is Thiago Motta’s farewell. In addition to his exemption in black and white. “The change of coach -I know -? We didn’t change it, I want to emphasize him: it was he who decided to leave. We started from a fairly strong base but we worked to create what we created. It is he who went and we were lucky to have found a coach who wanted to continue working with us for the team we have now. If I was sorry that Motta went away? appreciated his way and of the society that took it, because I am a very open type: I am passionate, people see him, I give passion to ours who work and I was disappointed by what has been done by Juve and Thiago. Low changing room: I feel sorry for him because I know he works very strong and keeps us, but when you take responsibility for a team like Juve who spent a lot of money to win the championship and not to be only in fourth place or the Champions League struggle. I’m sorry for him, even if he left me as he left me … “
Know and respect
–
“The merit of today’s Bologna? Of everyone, from the staff to those who wash the clothes, from the warehouse worker to everyone. Our motto is” We are one “and the players are very united, them with us, all of them. And this makes the difference. And then Bologna: it is a city of 350 thousand inhabitants, we know who we are in Italian football; the expectation is not to win the Scudetto but to do our best to enter Europe, and in the Champions League. They let work in peace and if they let us work we show that we are there for them. Either criticized the referees or how things are done: instead there are many foreigners who would like to change everything without wanting to understand the culture of Italian football. For me it is important that the company is known and respected: we have an CEO that has been in football for many years (Fenucci, ed) and with the decisions we make are respected. In alloy and on the pitch. It took years. When I arrived I said to me to give me ten years and I will take you to Europe ‘. And after ten years it happened. It took time. “
