Parma comes after two consecutive failures in the championship, with Como and to Empoliand in the last two rounds play to save from relegation against Naples and with Atalanta.
The prestigious Gazzetta Dello Sport claims, however, that as the Parment season has been, Cristi Chivu's team has been more likely to take points from the duels with leader Naples, Sunday, and 3rd place (May 25), than if they play against bands in the second half of the standings.
The main argument: the figures! Of the 32 points they have in the standings, the “Crusaders” have awarded their thick, 19, in the duels with the teams on 1-10 places and the remaining 13 against the bands ranked from the 11th position.
Gazzetta dello Sport: “Parma is a team built for counterattack”
The biggest sports daily in Italy also explains how it was possible for Parma to take 4 points out of 6 Juventus, Bologna and Lazio, to remove a point with the more modest Lecce, Empoli and Verona and none of the confrontations with Cagliari, Genoa and Udinese.
“Parma is a team built for the counterattack and the vertical game. Against the top formations, this style benefits it, it comes naturally, because the borders attack the spaces that you can speculate. With the little ones you are forced to play, you discover and get goals,” writes Gazzetta dello Sport.
Gazzetta dello Sport, no word about Dennis Man
The pink newspaper also writes that against Napoli, Cristi Chivu, who has proved until now “courage and cynicism”, would rely on the couple Bonny-Pellegrino, “but it is also to be taken into account, without a rival in the air duels.
But one thing is clear. After raising the voice, following the failure of Empoli, he will now no longer want to see a team of teenagers (his) against one of adults, as last Saturday. And he plays his future at this end of season. “
The Romanian technician signed with Parma a contract until the end of the current season, with an extension option for another season, until 2026. Dennis Man? Gazzetta Dello Sport does not even waste a sentence about the Romanian international in the “Crusiați”.
