Cristian Chivu reunites with Bernabé and sheds light on Man.

Chivu’s words ahead of Monza

.

Cristian Chivu, Parma coach, presented the delicate away match with Monza in a press conference. "We need the same spirit that I have been trying to convey since I arrived. We had 13 finals, now it’s 10. Let us think about the next one, we can only control the weekly commitment and the one during the match".

It's been a week of work, like all the others. Everyone gives it their all. The absences of Sohm and Vogliacco make us sorry, they wanted to be at this game, but at the same time we have to think about who is there. The important thing is to convey that everyone is useful to the cause, even despite the absences. All of the group can give a lot more.

On Bernabé: "He had been on the bench with Torino, we even thought of inserting him, then we made unplanned changes, in defense we had two centerbacks booked and we lost the change. Last week he had trained only one day with us, this week he did it all and tomorrow è available".

Pellegrino and the two-forward hypothesis: "We might do it and we might not. We have to understand the balance, what are the alternatives in case something happens. In the roster we have two forwards, Pellegrino has worked well but the headlines are short-lived. People want to see him repeat the following Sunday. Work pays off, he has worked well before and this week. We as a societyà have a duty to make the stars shine as long as possible but also prepare them for the fall, every now and then stars fall".

Quotation on Man: "He è trained well, he canè add something about attitude, like everyone else. Not è a message addressed to him but to the whole group, I say it every day, the boys need to be told certain things. He tries hard, he tries to improve, he has a correct attitude like everyone else".
