“It is not good to talk about the negative things. We are not satisfied with the place we are. Let's talk about the ranking now. It is important to talk only about the match of tomorrow where we are forced to give everything. We have not come for a very long time, but we still managed to do something together.
There were many important matches. It is still a derby, even if the teams do not occupy very good positions in the standings. I lived a lot of derby in Milan, Turin, Genoa, the position in the standings does not matter, but only tomorrow.
Louis is better. I would love to be with us. I'll talk to him again. We managed to recover from the injured players, but those old problems you know. Simao and Kamara are not with us, but otherwise I want to be good tomorrow evening. Louis is important to us.
In the derby we always play the victory. Sometimes this may not come out, but we give everything to succeed. Derby is only designed about victory. The club always thinks about it.
It would be good for a lot of people to come to this derby. It's Monday, it's late hour, but that's it. We are with our supporters. We know that another schedule would have brought more people to the match. We have nothing to do. It is not satisfying that people have no chance to come.
In Rome it is an important derby, it is the capital. It's hard to compare. If I were to choose, it would be the Milan derby. It is an important derby for Romania, of a city I carry in the soul. I would like to win it ”, Andrea Mandorlini said at the press conference pre-the-party with U Cluj.
