In addition, the Rossobl'coach wanted to send a clear message to the club.
"It's normal that from the technical point of view at this moment I can't be happy, but it's happened so fast that it's something unexpected even for the company. I prefer not to talk about budgetary issues, but to focus only on what I can contrall, so the field and the players I have available. You all know the situation with Albert. I told the company; I need to understand within a week who è in and who è out. Tomorrow we have the Italian Cup and in a week the championship starts" began the coach of the Rossoblù.
"Retegui and Gudmundsson are very important from a technical point of view. That said, I ask our fans to remain calm, have patience and draw conclusions at the end of the market. At the numerical level we are short and there's a need to intervene quickly. I have great confidence in the company, there's maximum sharing and confrontation. The club knows my will to remain competitive. We want to do well this season as well, but I know there's a lot of expectation and there are 28 thousand subscribers. The important thing at the end of the market will be to draw conclusions and be very clear about the season goals" added the former Fiorentina striker.
" It will beà the first official match in front of our people and we have the desire to play a galliard game. Ità will be a dry match, so we will have to maintain great mental focus, balance and order. Però I can say that I am very happy with the guys we have worked with until today, becauseè I have a cohesive group that has given a lot and has shown very good things" concluded Alberto Gilardino.
