Antonio Conte doesn’t trust Torino

Antonio Conte introduced Torino-Napoli, scheduled for Sunday at 3 p.m., at a press conference. “We have to be realistic and know that we are only in the 13th day and within a few points there are 6 teams. It’s a balanced league so far, in my opinion I don&#39t think it will remain so until the end. Already at the end of the first round it will start to get a bit longer, but we are pleased, it shows that the work we are doing è good and I am happy, day by day we are laying important foundations and I see a continuous growth as a team but also as individuals. The squad è has grown a lot as a level of individuals compared to Dimaro, credit must be given to the boys who have the desire to improve”.

On Vanoli: “Paolo è a serious guy, a great worker, I had the pleasure of knowing him on a working level when I was at the national team, he was coaching an Under, when there’è was the opportunity; I brought him with me. He worked on my staff, a curious, decent guy, I was è sorry when he decided to break away to take a different path, but at the same time I was proud that I could give something to him and he gave something to me in those years”.

The granata are in difficultyà: “I saw the patitis, I analyzed them. They started very well, then they had the injury of Zapata who was on important levels, but è a solid group, has good quality;, è in the middle of the standings quietly and without a win for a long time, so there are values. It can è happen, I live in Turin, last year almost every Sunday I had the pleasure of going to see the game and è an environment that I know, nice warm, strong, attached to history, we will have to be very careful, è a game to be approached in the right best, with respect for the qualityà of the opponent and the environment that we will find and their history”.

Last year Torino-Napoli ended up; 3-0: “I remember the game well, it was a bit of a peculiar match, but it&#39s useless to look at the past, what counts is the present, having reset a bit’ everything with the boys. I know soccer very well, there are times when there’s negativity no matter what, you get a shot and it ends up under the cross, an episode, everything goes wrong for you, you get into a period of negativity and you have to be good to get out of it. If we really want to … there’è the example of a team like City that comes from 4 defeats and a draw, there are those negative moments, but you have to restart some times you è be good, others you get into a spiral. We started with the draw with Modena, the defeat in Verona 3-0, we too understood that we needed to reset without looking back where we find beautiful things two years ago and very ugly last year, we think about the present and it is important to have found a group that gives me satisfaction in coming to Castel Volturno but it must be just the base”.

Milan, Paulo Fonseca does not hide problems in defense

Soì spoke Milan coach Paulo Fonseca on the eve of the home match against Empoli, returning to the errors of the Rossoneri rearguard in the Champions League.

“We won in Bratislava, but we had defensive problems on which I cannot close my eyes. We talked about it and worked on it. I must say forò that we are the fifth defense in the league, we took less than Atalanta and the same as Inter and Lazio.

“We are making a monster out of a problem. We want to work, we are working for it. In Bratislava the error was not tactical but in reading the moment, individual technique. We won, is everything okay? No. But after we work I have positive responses from the team”.
