" Agostini is not a makeshift solution , we immediately considered it appropriate to turn on him, the best situation there was. I am convinced it is the right choice , then the pitch will say it of course, but I say we will save ourselves ".
These are the words with which the sporting director of Cagliari Calcio , Stefano Capozucca , presented the new rossoblù coach, who took the place of Walter Mazzarri , "relieved of his post" last Monday.
Agostini, 281 appearances as a player with the Cagliari shirt and until a few days ago coach of the Primavera , will have to lead the team in the three games that are missing at the end of the championship , decisive, starting as early as next Sunday's away match against Salernitana , for the permanence of the Sardinian team in Serie A.
On the decision to put Mazzarri at the door, Capozucca commented: "The decision was made on Monday evening given the ranking today we are relegated; something had to be examined, a decision had to be taken. We have a squad that shouldn't have been in this position ".
But now for the ds, the past must not be a problem: “We must concentrate exclusively on the match in Salerno , the rest must not concern us, neither to me nor to the team. We only have to think about victory ", concluded Capozucca.
For his part, Agostini was clear : “The input is clear, beyond the modules, we must field everything we have immediately, because the match against Salernitana is a fundamental match . For this reason, in recent days I have tried to give something more to the boys also on a mental and psychological level ".
“I feel proud to be here and I truly believe in it”, continued Agostini.
As for the module and possible changes, Agostini preferred to remain buttoned up: " I will evaluate what needs to be done , despite the few days, and you will see it in Salerno".
" I am not a superhero - concluded Ago - I have already experienced these moments as a player. What matters now is to have a union of intentions and to put everything there is to put into the field".
