The journalist and Viola fan Marcello Mancini spoke extensively at LadyRadio of tonight’s match between Fiorentina and Club Bruggefocusing on various key themes from the semi-final first leg of Conference League.
“Access to the final of Conference League it can seal a positive season, however you look at it. It would be an important result, with the emotions that accompany this moment, from the future of the Viola coach to the return of Commisso. There Florentine at this point in the season he’s still in the running for something like last year, and that’s saying something. The Bruges is strong but it goes without saying, weak teams cannot be found in the semi-finals. L’Aston Villa it seems like it could be the strongest in the competition. There Florentine they have to win 2-0, winning with a couple of goals would make you sleep soundly. The other results, starting with a draw, would be complicated and would not provide any certainty.”
‘Subtle, now or never. Arthur can turn the team around’
“Gonzalez he is the first on the list to find the goal, but I have a lot of confidence in him Belotti which sooner or later will have to be unlocked. The fact that he works hard doesn’t satisfy me, he has to score goals and not be generous. Then I point up Thin; for me it’s a big disappointment, I believed in him a lot but it’s been a disaster so far. Now for him it’s now or never, if she plays tonight and fails she can peacefully leave to another team because it means that she will never succeed in Florence. Today, however, we must exploit without any ifs or buts his enthusiasm and his euphoria after the Sassuolo. I would choose in the middle Arthur because if he’s well he makes the whole team work. The outside shot Mandrake it can be a card to exploit if you are unable to break through. It’s a shame it’s not there Castrovilli on the UEFA list, I don’t understand why he isn’t used more consistently in the league.”
‘Commisso emphasized the expectations of Fiorentina fans at the end of the Della Valle cycle’
“When Commisso arrived and said things that emphasized the enthusiasm and expectations of the fans Florentine at the end of the cycle of Of the valley. The previous owners brought in great players, from Toni to Gilardino until Rossi, Cuadrado, Joaquin, the list is long, we cannot forget the many years in which Fiorentina was in the foreground. Then the end of the Marche people’s relationship with Florence was disastrous. However, if you make an evaluation from the outside, you cannot give a negative evaluation if you take stock of the management of Commissobut in Florence we are negative regardless and there is disappointment. Aquilani advantaged by the logic of ‘family‘ which guides the choices of Commisso and the Roman coach is a product of this path, of which he appreciated certain values, knowing it well. It would not be a choice without controversy, Aquilani is still considered very immature for an ambitious square like that of Fiorentina”.
