Atalanta, Gasperini: 'With Juric is battle'

"We will not think we can easily win against Verona, which has just put Rome in difficulty too?" Gian Piero Gasperini calls his Atalanta to arms against the revelation team of the championship: "It is not that by saving ourselves on Saturday we would have more energy or advantages on Wednesday in a competition from inside or outside in the Champions League with Shakhtar - the technician's premise -. We had some ailments in the week, Kjaer (straight femoris, ed), De Roon (left knee, ed) and Gomez dragging a bruise from Brescia but on Thursday he was already better.
The opponent on duty not only made 18 points, but gathered unanimous appreciation. Let us remember that it is a newly promoted. It has an important game, it puts anyone in trouble ".
Student against master, this is the theme of the fifteenth day at the Gewiss Stadium: "Ivan Juric is an established coach. I have a strong relationship with him: he played for me at Crotone and Genoa, then he started coaching with me as a second after having started from the Primavera - I remember his championship of B won in Crotone. In Verona, a beautiful reality, he is finding the fortune he did not find in Genoa in the first team as technical manager ". With his colleague there is affection, esteem and tactical similarities: "As a footballer he had engaging strength, enthusiasm and courage. He espoused my football belief, but proposes things on his own, according to his character and character - underlines the Gasp -. I am happy when it turns out, but I assure you that tomorrow we will not look too much in the face, one will try to beat the other by fighting for his own cause: it is the beauty of football ". No turnover, if not targeted, like Pasalic in median instead of De Roon: "in Italy we have to change gear to remain attached to the high-ranking group: I really care, from here to Christmas we will not miss anything". (HANDLE).

Juric, we can put Atalanta in difficulty - "Gasperini? A master, but by playing as a team we can also put this Atalanta in difficulty". This was stated by Verona coach Ivan Juric, released on the eve of Atalanta-Hellas Verona. "For us it was a good week, we worked well as always and we will try to find the best solutions based on the players available - added Juric -. Playing as a group, as we are, we will be able to put them in difficulty.
Gasperini? He is my teacher and, in my opinion, the best coach in Italy, there is so much of him in me. It has led Atalanta to be a great one, that plays great and has great players "." They have an incredible continuity, they continually make progress year after year, while maintaining a team skeleton and the Champions League game will not affect on Gasperini's choices - he continued -. Kumbulla? He will be summoned, but will not start from the beginning, he only did two training sessions partially with the team. Veloso, on the other hand, is fine.
Pazzini can be useful and will be, as it was against Roma when we were attacking with great continuity "
