Paratici
“I think our performances have been improving week by week, as even against a very international team like Atalanta, we had many chances and were left with regrets at not winning.
“As for the points, we have to count them all at the end of the season, not now,” Paratici told DAZN.
“We don’t just play for the two strikers, as many players push up and take part in the attack. We have a very competitive squad, showed that in the Champions League, and are trying to grow game by game, playing good football and getting stronger.”
Paulo Dybala is not at the Stadio Tardini due to an injury, continuing his stop-start campaign.
“Dybala has this muscular issue, it was nothing major, but meant he couldn’t come here with us. He had an injury against Lyon in August too, so it took him a while to get into shape and we’ll enjoy him to the full soon enough.
“The President was very clear. Every day throughout the year we have to deal with transfer stories, so we are accustomed to this speculation.”
