Atalanta, Gian Piero Gasperini enjoys the performance of his

"It is said that Genoa like Shakhtar è little stuff, but è solid and tough, back from two excellent championships with Gilardino. We were the ones who put up a great performance". Gian Piero Gasperini, despite Atalanta's 5-1 win, does not minimize the value of the opponent.

“We played with quality and department, this è the important thing, defensively as well as attacking. If you play like this; you raise the team level", remarks the Nerazzurri coach. "The team è been growing for several weeks, it is the results sometimes that make us lose judgment a bit. We did not expect to pierce the second half with Como, but with Fiorentina, Arsenal, the first half in Bologna and then Shakhtar we were continuous", Gasperini continued.

The coach of the Bergamasks has a phrase for each key player: "Retegui does department, è he has been very precise and participates in the game, a reference point for the other two attacking partners. We bet a lot on the quality and dangerousness of him, of De Ketelaere and Lookman,” he explains. “To Ederson, whose 100 games with us I am happy with, I always tell him to shoot hard and not in a Brazilian swivel, at times he was already throwing the crossbar: he has to score a few more goals for us, with his foot he scores few. For Kolasinac I have no adjectives, è he entered the schemes immediately last year as Retegui did this year. Not è so for everyone although our way of playing is not è so complicated”.

On the injured: "Brescianini has a serious injury so I don’t know if it will be enough; the break, Djimsiti will recover; we will see Kossounou. For Ruggeri there'è confidence that the break" be enough. Finally, on the famous ten different movement players compared to last season: "I am very satisfied, for the summer market revolution I would have expected even less at this point – Gasperini closes -. We came out with two steps back, as often happens after the summer session. There are good responses from a good part of many, some are a bit' moreù backward".
