It is a far from satisfied Gian Piero Gasperini who appears at the microphones of Sky Sport after his Roma team’s narrow victory against Midtjylland in the Europa League. “It is a victory that improves our standings a lot, achieved against a very good team. We did not play a very good game, because after going ahead immediately there were all the conditions to do better on the technical level”.

“We dribbled slowly and made a lot of mistakes, I expected to make the forwards play better in the building phase. Clearly we are playing a lot, but on Sunday we have to do better” added the coach of the Giallorossi who will take on Napoli at the Olimpico in the big match of the thirteenth day of Serie A.

Just against the Italian champions, the Capitolini coach is likely to have to do without Manu Koné, who was replaced by Cristante after not even half an hour because of an ankle problem: “He suffered a bad entry on his ankle and this caused him a small sprain, we will see in the coming days”.

No problem, on the other hand, for Dybala: “He is recovered, he is fine and on the athletic level he has no problem. I replaced him but he could have been on the field 90 minutes. Today he struggled a bit as a central forward, we will see if he can still do that role or if he has to play more outside”.
