His statements:<br\/><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">APOLOGISING TO THE FANS<br\/>\u201cWhen you lose in this manner, it\u2019s difficult even to comment on the game. First and foremost, I feel sorry for our fans. Today, we did not represent them in any way. We must start by apologising to everyone who made sacrifices to come here and watch a performance like this. Today, I can take no positives from the game. We did not represent our fans.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>A DOSE OF HUMILITY<\/strong><br\/>\u201cWe need to get our feet back on the ground. The pitch is the ultimate judge, and it\u2019s only right that all of us, starting with myself and the coaching staff, take a good dose of humility. We knew everything about Monza: if you don\u2019t win your individual battles and second balls against teams like this, you end up losing in this manner.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>THE FIGHTING SPIRIT<\/strong><br\/>\u201cEvery team reflects its coach, so my team must have a fighting spirit. Today, we showed everything except that. Watching from the stands, I felt angry seeing a team that didn\u2019t even look like a team. Credit to Monza, who made the most of every opportunity and, in some situations, could even have scored more.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>ANALYSING THE GAME<\/strong><br\/>\u201cI wouldn\u2019t focus on the first half, because that would mean I was missing the point. We need to look at what went wrong and work on reacting. We cannot collapse like this, becoming stretched and losing our individual battles. It would be far too easy to say that the second goal knocked the stuffing out of us.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>TACTICAL CHOICES<\/strong><br\/>\u201cThis team can play with two strikers because the players have the tactical understanding to do so. We have also played with two strikers in the past, with Maldini closer to Mendy. We can change our tactical approach, but we cannot compromise on our attitude, which must be different from what we saw today.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>GETTING BACK TO WORK WITH OUR HELMETS ON<\/strong><br\/>\u201cWe need to be more alert, otherwise we\u2019ll get hurt. We have to bring in the qualities that were missing today. We need to reset and start again, always with our helmets on, because this is a long and tough season. We all have to get back to work with our helmets on and make amends for today\u2019s poor performance.\u201d<\/p>\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>LOOKING AHEAD TO BOLOGNA<\/strong><br\/>\u201cIt\u2019s difficult right now. We just need to get back, get our heads down and get back to work, because the Cagliari we saw today is not the team that represents the 1,400 fans in the away section. We start again tomorrow, because I want to see the Cagliari of recent weeks back on the pitch.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":28004,"template":"","tags":[],"news_cat":[278,276,274],"class_list":["post-28022","news","type-news","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","news_cat-new-in","news_cat-latest-news","news_cat-first-team"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>PRESS CONFERENCE | Coach Pisacane after Monza<\/title>\n<meta name=\"description\" content=\"Cagliari head coach Fabio Pisacane spoke to the media after the 4-0 defeat against Monza.
