"We have prepared two ways of being on the pitch, with different intuitions. And I am curious to see where they will take us. We are facing a very strong team, but we want to play it."
The bar is raised, but Davide Nicola certainly does not lose his optimism and awareness. "Since mister Ranieri arrived, Roma has had a turnaround, not only in numbers", the premise. "We are talking about an important, qualitative and competitive opponent. We too, however, can put in a great performance", thus launches the challenge the Cagliari coach from the press room of the "Crai Sport Center" in Assemini. "We are playing on an important stage and we want to show how much we are worth".
Zappa is also unavailable, as well as Luvumbo and Coman. Nicola goes beyond the injury of the full-back from Monza and admits: «Zappa would not have played this match in any case. There are three or four players who are playing a lot and it is right to let them rest». Can Prati play from the first minute? «Absolutely. Just as Palomino will play, I tell you this for sure. In recent days we have also focused on Kingstone and we are ready to give him a chance at the right time». The challenge within the challenge with the great former Claudio Ranieri? «I appreciate the quality of the man and the professional for the way he presents himself, always respecting everyone. From a professional point of view, he is a model for many of my colleagues, not just for me».
