The examination of the transfer market closed a week ago, the injury situation and, above all, Cagliari's appeal after referee Perenzoni's errors in the match lost in Modena. An appeal that led to the sports judge leaving the 2-0 "sub iudice" .
This is the content of a long press conference by the rossoblù sporting director Nereo Bonato . "There have already been controversial episodes with Spal," explained the manager. «Dubious episodes in Modena, starting from the incorrect expulsion of Rog, which leads to double damage, in Modena and in the following match, given that the player was disqualified. And then Zappa's double bookable yellow card, who played in restraint for a first yellow card which turned out not to have been given ».
Bonato confides in the appeal: «We want to replay the match in Modena without penalties. We thank the designator Rocchi, who admitted the referee's mistake. We are waiting for the outcome of the appeal on Monday, but we also think that Rog's expulsion can lead to lessons, to extend the intervention of the Var to episodes like this as well ».
On the market: «We have tried to build thinking about the future, but also about the present. Making a realistic assessment, we aim to reach the playoffs and then play it best to aim for promotion . We wanted a winger and a young, proprietary forward with characteristics similar to those of Pavoletti, and we took Azzi and Prelec. We were looking for an experienced central defender but, after reaching agreements with the club and the agent, we ran into the unwillingness of the players (Colley and Radovanovic) to go down a category».
Finally, on the injuries: «Some were of a traumatic nature, others muscular. Nandez and Deiola could return in March, in a short time we will have Di Pardo and Viola back and we evaluate Pavoletti day by day . We've never had a full squad, we're certain that, when we get everyone back, Cagliari will be able to have their say».
