Day of presentations at Bari. The new coach Moreno Longo spoke at the press conference, these are his words reported by TuttoBari.com: “I am an ambitious person, this is a prerogative that I must have and that my players must also have. Football has changed a lot in the last ten years, today a team must have a strong identity and principles that in a field of football must be clear. Last year I was sacked at the best moment. I had taken a second-to-last team and I was three points away from Serie A, but this is now a closed chapter for me. I am a concrete person, I will give my all with the working group to try to make this project work.”
The market?
“We are discussing a lot about my ideas, based on the characteristics of the players. I will also have to talk with those who remain in Bari, I want them to be clear that enthusiasm, desire and a sense of belonging must come first This will be the basis, we will discuss this to look for suitable profiles. I made a specific request, to have a team ready in training camp, because it is essential to prepare for the season.”
The module?
“I’m not a coach obsessed with numbers, today in football we talk above all about occupying spaces. The principles will remain firm and clear, but we won’t always be the same way. Maybe we can defend with three and by setting up with four, we will help the team to interpret and read different situations”.
