MONZA (ITALPRESS) – “I will give everything for salvation. I saw a sad team, but with the desire to start again already from Parma where the goal is the result.” Thus introduces himself Salvatore Bocchetti, called by Monza to replace Alessandro Nesta on the run and to repeat in Brianza the ‘miracle’ done in Verona. “I was at the Verona stadium when Monza made the only victory,” Bocchetti said in the press conference, “When I saved Verona it was a different story, here there is a different situation, I am convinced that here in Monza I will center the goal. There is a lot to work on, but the group is there.” He does not talk about the market, the new coach of the Lombardi, who has in his sights the next challenge with Parma: “On the form I have something in mind, I’m still analyzing how much can put Parma in difficulty. I expect from the boys the ‘knife between the teeth’ starting with this match. It wasn’t until Monday morning that my attorney called me and I said yes right away, there were no pre-calls. I will bring my experience that I have received from so many coaches.” “In these first hours of training, with a team that in the last two years has sailed at high levels, I think it will be enough to touch some strings to get results,” Bocchetti continued, “I spoke with Palladino (former coach of Monza now at Fiorentina, ed.), who gave me some suggestions. I do not hide the responsibilities, also in the name of Berlusconi, I have a roster that should facilitate the task. Working at this club is a great honor. I know it is a malleable team, so I don’t think the form is decisive. There will be 500 Monza fans in Parma, we will try to give our best for them. It will be a difficult match, I am sure we will play a great game. Parma is a strong team that is not going through a good moment.” Alongside Bocchetti is Monza sporting director Mauro Bianchessi: “This team does not deserve last place, the only goal is salvation – he assured – The market? The best purchase is to make the points in Parma and Cagliari, then we will talk about it. Leaving Nesta was not easy, also because Galliani has an ultra-decade-long relationship with him, but we have to change course. This formation is not last place. Bocchetti is one of the ‘Gasperini boys,’ among his characteristics the desire to sign a difficult but not impossible feat, because Monza does not want to end up in B. Find a group of united, good players, it takes a spark to get this team going again,” concluded the Brianzoli’s ds.- Photo Ipa Agency -(ITALPRESS).
