The coach of Palermo Alessio Dionisi, in today’s usual press conference before the match with Spezia, discussed the Ligurian team but also the rosanero, with the Brunori case taking center stage.

Palermo, Dionisi: “I’m not crazy, those who deserve it and show it during the week play”

The coach of Palermo Alessio Dionisi, in today’s press conference before the match against Spezia for the 15th round of Serie B, talked about the game against the aquilotti but especially about the Brunori case, which is causing a stir among the rosanero fans.

Brunori Case

“I’m not crazy, those who deserve it and show it during the week play. This has always been a fundamental principle for me to be credible in a group. I ask the team from day one to push and not think about themselves, but to put the team first. And all this rightly should then lead to results. In these last games, the performances have been better, but they haven’t led to the results we deserved.”

Less effectiveness in the offensive phase

“Offensively, we have been less effective, but we have created, and that is a step forward because at the beginning we created less, but it’s not the step forward I would like or we want. It doesn’t matter what you have done, from anyone, mine or the players’. What matters is what we do. We need to start from what we have done and improve it through more effectiveness in front of goal. Again, for me, everything comes from training, then the response is in the game. The coach has to make choices, and I am responsible for them, but I always have to start from what I see during the week. Even though I can’t play everyone.”

Doubts in the lineup

“I have three or four doubts in the lineup. Gomes deserves to play all the time, but it’s understandable that the coach makes a choice. I have no preconceptions about anyone. From the beginning until now, many players have made mistakes, in training, in attitude, or after the game. These wrong attitudes are emphasized by me and the executives with a view to improvement.”

I make the lineup based on concrete facts

“Those who have made mistakes have then played because they understood they were wrong. So I want to emphasize that I don’t close the door to anyone, especially not to important players. I don’t make the lineup based on resumes, but on what I see. Gomes surprised me, I am very happy with his growth that I expected, and I don’t rule out that he could return to the field. He can play alongside Ranocchia.”

D’Angelo, an old acquaintance

“I know D’Angelo well, we have been opponents in the past, and I respect him. His assistant was a former teammate of mine at Fiorentina. There is a history between us, and I thank him for the compliments. We face a team that is surprising because they have values. They have intensity, aggression, win duels. They are dangerous on set pieces, the numbers explain it well. They have not lost in the league yet and have won more than 50% of the games they have played.”

Spezia, a team to be respected

“We face a team to be respected, but only to a certain extent. It’s time to beat a big team. Spezia, at this moment, is performing better than us. Everyone goes their own way, and I don’t change ours. I am satisfied with the path in terms of performances, clearly not with the results. We need to achieve results through performances, and the time has come. With Samp, we did everything but not the best.”
