«After the match against Lazio I was very disappointed because I saw the team that, despite giving everything, was suffering. So I said: guys, we need electric shock here . I told them that I would take a step back, that I would resign . At that point everyone squared off. They told me that it wasn't right , that we had gone up together and that together we would be saved. The same guys asked to be able to bring the retreat forward by one day. Tonight, therefore, we will sleep together here in Asseminello, then tomorrow we will train and leave." Claudio Ranieri puts his hands forward, before answering the journalists' questions, recounting what happened last Saturday in the Unipol Domus locker room.

«Electric shock was needed», he reiterates. "I don't want to talk about anything else." And to those who ask him for a comment on the outburst of president Tommaso Giulini, and in particular on the move onto the market, he replies dryly: «Thank you. One more question, thanks."

The match against Udinese, then. «Very difficult», the premise. “But we are not desperate,” he clarified. «There are still points available. We are aware that we are going to face a team in a great moment. We know what they are worth, let's now see how much we are worth." Ranieri hints that there could be some unexpected lump sum, without naming names, however. "We have some little problems, we hope to have everyone available." Good news, however, for Oristanio : «The green light has arrived from the doctors, he can start putting on his boots and working with the team».
