The words of Davide Nicola

These are the statements made in the press conference by Cagliari coach Davide Nicola on the eve of the external challenge at the "Marassi" stadium against Genoa valid for the 13th day of the championship.

"Genoa represents a very important past in my career, especially as a player, sinceè è in this cityà that I established myself in the world of soccer. This place will always be special to me not only on a football level, sinceè è it was here that I met my wife. It is a piece of my heart, forè today I am the coach of Cagliari and my thoughts è are exclusively on beating Genoa. We are ready for a very tough match in a very hot stadium" began the coach of the islanders.

" We will face a team with many very good players, we will have to play a great game and give our best to bring home a good result. For me and my staff there's been extra work because we had to imagine more versions of our opponent. We don&#39t know if Vieira will start from the old Genoa or will start right away to put his ideas on the field. In any case, we have prepared all situations" continued the former Empoli coach.

"We prepared ourselves with enthusiasm and those who went to the national team came back charged. We have to restart from the performance against Milan in which we showed good things, but we also made several mistakes. We will have to try to make better use of the transitions of the game, becauseè it is not enough to run a lot, but to do it well. I am used to facing every game as if it were a direct confrontation. We have to try to take points in every game, even in those that on paper seem the mostù difficult" commented Davide Nicola.
