Davide Nicola wants a courageous Cagliari
The words of Davide Nicola
These are the words released in the press conference by Cagliari coach Davide Nicola ahead of the home match at the Unipol Domus against Simone Inzaghi's Inter Milan, valid for the 18th day of Serie A.
"Inter è a team of great quality; and we need to play a galliard game with a lot of aggressiveness and courage, trying to never stop playing, but do it with the right attention. We will have to understand the moments when to try to hit" began the coach of the rossoblù.
"Against Inter will serve" ability" to recover immediately. In Venice we had the attitude of those who wanted to win. We clearly dominated the first half. We made assessments, namely that it is not enough to follow the game plan, but you should have more nastiness in handling certain situations. We suffered only one dangerous action and we handled it badly. We must demand more from ourselves in the nervous aspect, because losing like that must make you nervous" continued the islanders’ coach.
"Cagliari is producing a lot, but we are not yet up to the mark in terms of quality. The boys know that they have to give something more in both possession and non-possession. In Venice we conceded little, yet when we should have shown more focus we fell. We do not have such ready players, but we have the confidence, commitment and determination. Six times our opponent had the best goalkeeper on the field. There are times when you collect more and others less, so we have to develop that hunger to always want more,” added the former Empoli man.
"Inter has a consolidation of men built over time. It entices you to press them high, it knows how to build with two, three, four elements, accepts numerical parity and is able to handle the ball and look for depth with great ease. It's a rewarding match for us and if we want to get a result we will have to try to do what we have always done, but with greater speed." concluded Davide Nicola.
