Poker is close, but distance is a potentially infinite space. After three victories in a row, Rome seeks success tomorrow at Empoli, but Eusebio Di Francesco warns. "Every game is a test for us. Actually, every day. We must never stop demonstrating our growth. It 'a very important test against a healthy team that deserves many more points in the standings compared to the points he has, for the game he showed, for the mentality he put in the field, is one of the teams that recover ball in the opponent's half court , is one of the smallest that has the best possession, is a set of data that makes you think of a team with important qualities, you have to compliment Andreazzoli who is doing a great job. It is clear from their way of playing that they have great ability to go vertically.
They have a great mobility, they make high aggressions, they have an idea of play. We must be good at opening them. We have taken the right precautions to defend ourselves, but also to attack them. They with the big ones have played it on a par, we must be good to approach it in the right way ". The time spent at Empoli, however, also emotionally does not leave him indifferent. "It will be a pleasure to come back. I have lots of friends and great affection. Starting from Nicola Caccia, a great friend of mine with whom I shared so many joys and with whom I grew up.
At Empoli there was a bit 'my adolescence and I formed as a man. That's why I'm happy to come back, but I had already been there before, even though as a Roma coach it's the first time, so it's always pleasant ".
It will obviously depend on the result, and to conquer it will have to do without Kolarov, launching from the first minute (for the first time) Luca Pellegrini. "It will be up to him from the beginning. Kolarov will not even be called up, he did not even walk today. We must congratulate him for how he played and for the availability of the man he showed. I never speak with the federations or with the c.t., I do not know who they are. I have not heard anyone, I think he has to go. It seems inappropriate to me that you play in the national team, do not walk. I do not interfere with the nationals, my company will do everything to get back as soon as possible ". The doubts of formation, however, are not lacking. "Behind the only one safe to play is Manolas with Pellegrini.
I have a doubt between Santon and Florenzi and I have doubts as to who will play as central left. I will decide tomorrow also based on the characteristics of the attackers. Pellegrini and Dzeko will play, then we will see who among Nzonzi, De Rossi and Cristante will be there. The exteriors do not tell them. De Rossi will play a shirt, today he did all the training, yesterday he had done only the initial part. If it should be right, it will play from the beginning ". Filed the great day of Champions for the Italians ("It's a sign of growth, but afterwards we need continuity, it's fundamental.) We must not exalt ourselves too much, but some steps forward we are doing it, even as a mentality"). speech turns on who plays less.
