Ranieri smells the air of battle. He hasn't forgotten the grumblings of the first half against Ascoli, but the coach also knows that Cagliari are arriving well at the decisive moment of the season. «Given that the fans are free to do what they want, I asked for everyone's help, especially in difficult moments. And, after reviewing the images, I say that we weren't in trouble, except after the disadvantage. And there we would have needed help, if we wanted to go up».
From Ascoli to Reggina: «We will find a full house, an audience that will beat the home team behind us. But we are ready, we will have to repeat the performance against Ascoli, removing the dead spots».
Ranieri will be forced to give up Rog, Pavoletti and even Luvumbo again ("better not to risk"), while he brings Viola back to the group: "I have found my leaders and he is the first, an intelligent boy. Today he had his first group training, he will come with us».
Finally, on the 4–3-1-2 which can become the reference system: «The game system is the one that allows you to line up the best players. And now that Mancosu is at 80%, this is a good system, at least to start with».
