BRUSSELS (BELGIUM) (ITALPRESS) – Lightness yes, but not superficiality. To dictate the line is Raffaele Palladino: Atalanta wants to win against the Union Saint-Gilloise and hope again in the direct passage to the eighth. “The dream is still there, despite being small – said the Nerazzurri technician –. We must not make calculations, we must seek victory, we must not have concentrations, we have tried on our skin that the Champions, as soon as you can, you can pay dearly. We are aware that tomorrow we will face a team with values, we want to do our performance.”.
The coach of Bergamo then returned to those who were the calis in the last days against Pisa and Athletic Bilbao, erased by the convincing home win with Parma: “I’ve tried to understand the various calis, so many things can be coincidences, but we can’t fail to put the spirit and attitude in place, probably as soon as we feel that things seem done we lower the guard, but when it happens we become vulnerable. I asked the team never to take anything for granted. If we make that extra step in some moments of the game we make a nice jump“.
As for the training, Palladino did not want to unbalance: “I always try to put the best one in the field, I’m lucky to have a big rose, whoever I put in the field can express themselves 100%, I don’t do turnover, I think tomorrow. We want to give continuity to performance, we must continue this way, then we will think about the race against Como. There must be no flow tomorrow. They are a good team – he added -, with individuality, we have studied them, although we had a few days to prepare it. They can put everyone in trouble, they already did it against Bayern Munich. In the house they are afraid, for them is the last game in front of their audience, they will try to win it, they can still qualify.”
In the conference, Nikola Krstovic, author of 8 goals in 12 games (a network in the Champions League against the Basques): “At first I had difficulty, but now I’m better, everyone is giving me confidence. For us tomorrow will be a tough game, we will give everything, then we will see the ranking after the game, we hope to return in the first eight”.
Palladino has chosen to alternate the two centerpieces and both are giving great answers. Former Lecce talks about the relationship he has with his partner. “For me and Scamacca it is not important who plays, I have always said it. There is mutual trust among us, in the last game we made two goals, one to head, the mister is happy. Nothing changes if one plays 60 minutes and the other 30′′′.
