“Monday’s match will be a very important one, it’s a direct confrontation that is worth a lot, we will have to prepare for it in the best possible way and be ready for it”: red and blue defender Alberto Dossena spoke to Radio TV Serie A as part of the talk “Costruzioni dal basso”.
ALL UNITED
“During a season, difficult moments can happen: after Lazio, also thanks to the coach, there was a turning point. We have remained united, this group has always overcome difficulties in this way. Many of us have been working together since last season, always perfectly. Now there are nine matches left to the end of the championship, we will have to make the most of each one to bring home the points that will allow us to reach our goal”.
SERIE A
“The impact with Serie A was not easy: there is a lot of physicality and quality. Then, game after game, once you accumulate experience, you also gain confidence. In January Mina and Gaetano arrived, they are giving us a big hand, undoubtedly with their addition the team has improved. I hope Yerry will be available again as soon as possible”.
THE COACH’S TRUST
“I owe a lot to the coach: from the moment he arrived he immediately believed in me, he gave me the chance to play and to show my qualities. After a match, during the week we talk about the mistakes, the aspects that need to be improved. He has faith in me, I try to repay him on the pitch. In general he’s a fundamental figure for us: with him we achieved promotion to the A league. What is he like with us? How do you see him from the outside: he’s a gentleman, always outspoken. But even he can get angry and become a hammer”.
NATIONAL TEAM DREAM
“To get to play in the national team for me would be a dream, I hope it will come true one day. I will only be able to do it with work”.
FOCUSED ON THE GOAL
“The last few matches have been important for us: the victory at Empoli and the one at home against Salernitana have given us a lot of confidence: they were two important victories for our classification. There will be other direct matches and we must be ready. The group is there, as is the desire to work hard to reach safety”.
