"We've had a great week of training, with excellent energy and atmosphere. Tomorrow we'll need to play a great game against a tough, organised opponent who won't give us anything for free in difficult stadium. We need to play well to earn all three points
The Champions League matches will be tough, but exciting and challenging. When you hear that music, everything changes. Over the past few months, we have earned this opportunity to play in such an incredible competition.
The feelings after Parma are positive. I saw a team that was on point and always focused. I'm happy with the squad that I have at my disposal, giving this group continuity is an added value that is often underestimated.
The team is a living body that adapts to the work we do on the pitch. We are developing a clear identity and mentality. You know that I am never satisfied. My approach to training is always the same, always focused no matter what the result. Sometimes I push harder when we win than when things aren't going so well.
We must never be complacent, but grow both individually and as a group. Bremer is improving with every game, especially physically: putting a difficult year behind him is not easy.
Nico Gonzalez is a player I like a lot. He has values, qualities, and plays for an important national team like Argentina. I played him on the wing, but due to physical problems, he hasn't been in the best shape at the start of the season. I'm happy to have him in the team with us.
Genoa are very organised and they run a lot. We have to work as hard as them in order to bring out our quality.
I think the team is mentally ready to take on a busy schedule. They did it last year, and they will manage to juggle the league and Champions League in the coming weeks.
In the future, we may switch to a 3-5-2 formation with two strikers. The most important thing is to perform well on the pitch, regardless of the formation we play. It is unlikely that David will play behind the two strikers. In a formation with three attacking players, he will be the striker.
My decisions are always discussed with the staff. We always analyze what we can watch or miss based on the players we decide to pick. We will proceed according to this working method.
