Antonio Conte annoyed in press conference: "Make everything easy"
On Thursday evening Napoli will host Lazio in the round of 16 of the Coppa Italia. Antonio Conte began his press conference by sending a message of affection and closeness to Edoardo Bove: "Before we start I wanted on behalf of myself and all the boys to send a big hug to Edoardo Bove. We are all with him and hope to see him soon return to what he does so well".
Space, then, to field issues: "Our goal è to grow and build something. To grow there'è we need to play as much as we can, which is why this year è a bit of a penalty for us. It's important to prepare ourselves well, going forward in the Italian Cup means to have more chances, more space to show that improvements are being made, to understand well also for the club, for the players, for me as well".
Asked about the possibilityà of winning the Coppa Italia, Antonio Conte replied sharply: "You talk here about winning too easily. We win the Champions League, we win the championship. We win, we win, we win…Wins have to be built, otherwise you go nowhere. Building è the basis of winning, a group has to be created that has the ambition and realistic desire to be theì with the others. I don't take the dream away from anyone, but the reality; it's an ongoing construction of something that can last and give joy to all the fans, to the whole environment. May it compact the'environment".
" We always look at game after game, so the most important one è is Thursday. Having said that, I will makeò choices becauseé there are so many players on the roster. We had a good start, but credit should not be given only to the 12-13 who took part, but the credit should be divided to the entire squad, to those who took over, to those who played little or nothing at all precisely but in training kept up the intensity and competition, concluded the Napoli helmsman.
