“Happy with what the kids do and their attitude”

Mister Tabbiani answered the journalists' questions in the press room after the match won against Messina: “I am satisfied with the improvements. We are happy, we are attacking the depth better and I am lucky to have players who tell me what they perceive on the pitch, also in terms of shortcomings. These last two games increase self-esteem. It's true that we had a decline at the end, also because many hadn't played 90 minutes for a long time: we had to dribble better and we had plenty of space to attack. Bocic? For me there are no starters, on the outside we need to have a lot of variety in terms of characteristics and athletic condition, Milos is a young man with quality, perspective and is continuing to do well, beyond the episode in Caserta. Maffei? He played a great match, it was his first start among the professionals and it wasn't easy, he showed great personality, he needs to improve but he was good; in his role there is Antonio, who can teach him a lot, and Mattia must absorb. Deli? It has an immense quality, we gradually put minutes into our legs. There are very expensive roles, the more players we put in condition the more we will be able to face the very intense period in terms of close matches. Even in the first half the quality of our play was good, perhaps we could have kept a higher pace. The team beyond Monopoli is doing well, we are starting to have fluidity and attacks on depth. Happy with what the boys do and their attitude, by creating an identity today we will be able to manage even the difficult moments, your observations on managing the advantage are correct. More physical or mental decline in the end? Probably the feeling was that they had already acquired the result but at 2-0 the match can always reopen. The further we go, the more we improve even in the small details."
