Spezia, Semplici: “Do you need more than 100%, module? 4-3-3”

Samp called to react, Spezia to stretch on the red zone. Saturday’s derby will be a decisive match for the two Ligurian teams.

Fire weekend in Liguria. The Samp-Spezia derby will take place on Saturday at 20.45. Marassi’s match is a crossroads for the two teams, especially for Semplici’s battleship which has a three-point lead over third-last Verona. The Tuscan coach Leonardo Semplici spoke in the conference in view of the very delicate match: “The knockout with Lazio? He didn’t do well morally, it was a sorry defeat for how it turned out and for the final score, but this is the truth. We have to roll up our sleeves, if we’re doing 100% we have to do something more, starting with the coach. What has been done up to now has been good, in some matches, in others sufficient, in others still insufficient and we must reach a level to play the match with a certain mentality and determination to achieve results. I hope that on Saturday we try to start with the right attitude and mentality to put the opposing team in difficulty and to bring home points”.

Semplici also talks about the attack department and the formation: “Shomurodov in the 4-4-2? We are also evaluating this solution but I think we have found a balance by playing with the 4-3-3. We can think of having Shomurodov play as a winger, but we have also tried other solutions. I think the form will be the same, 4-3-3, or at least the starting one. Then during the race we will see”. Then a few words on the singles: “Zurkowski had a relapse and will not be in the match. The other absentees are the usual, Bastoni recovers after the disqualification and it’s important. Esposito had a good match with Lazio, it wasn’t easy because he had been out for a bit. I don’t think about absentees, I want a positive team.”
