He inherited the Primavera side of Genoa from Alberto Gilardino and took them to the top of the Primavera 2 tournament and to the semifinals of the Italian Cup in their category.
But Alessandro Agostini, today a guest on "Il Cagliari live" on Videolina and Radiolina, has a wound that won't heal. Because Cagliari and Cagliari are always in the heart, but last season's final is not forgotten . «I love Cagliari and its fans, but people can't understand what I felt».

I felt the responsibility of relegation and the semi-final of the Primavera on me, I don't even know how I managed to survive . I don't wish something like this on anyone, I'm scared to even think about it".
One thinks of that cursed evening in Venice : «For twelve months Cagliari looked for a culprit in their misfortunes and in Venice they found him and it was Agostini, who wasn't a ready coach , he put the team in a bad way, he made the wrong substitutions . I have heard that I have made sporting disasters. I was offended, kicked out... But that's okay, what I did I would do again».
The smile comes back thinking of his boys: «It was nice to see Kourfalidis and Luvumbo on the pitch in the match against Genoa. We worked a lot with Zito, in the end a strong bond was created, with him we understood each other immediately even just by looking at each other. Kourfalidis was a starter for me, our captain, the point of reference especially in the spirit and in the way of behaving for the other boys ».
