Turin-Bologna: the probable lineups

This Friday Ivan Juric’s team faces the surprise of the championship: Bologna. A match now without objectives for Toro who will still try to honor the championship, also in view of next season.

Juric, “The left side is a great success”

In the pre-match press conference, coach Juric talks about his team’s moment, without denigrating the results of the season, which many define as disappointing: “In other places, tenth place is a great result, looking at the budget and situations it is an excellent result. Then seeing what I think about the history and the joy of the fans, Toro must have objective, structure and work to be better than tenth place. To have a sense of football, also of the emotions of the fans. We must try to achieve more, even if it is difficult. Tenth place on the one hand is a great job starting from 17th place in this three-year period, but it is not true joy”

And on the stimuli of the match given the absence of goals: “Every match is an opportunity, an important jersey is defended: that’s enough and more as motivations. I don’t have this problem. Every year we have problems with contract deadlines, someone is out on loan, but everyone trains hard and we prepare to do our best. If something happens that I notice, react and go fix it. But I always see the team on track”

Finally he expressed a comment on Bologna: “Bologna is the team that impressed me the most, they have a fantastic spirit. When I see them, they are really strong: we have to face them to the fullest. After a long time, I saw something new and I liked it. He built it with the director, they are players with European characteristics and the way of playing is particular. Not even outside of Italy can we see their games. I’m curious to see what Thiago will do in a possible new team.”
