Marius Marin, for the third match forgotten on the bench: Pisa continues the decline
Somewhat worrisome, because, last stage, the “tricolor” was taken out by Alberto Gilardino and replaced by his competitor in the post, Ebenezer Akinsamiro. midfielder owned by Inter.
9Marius Marin has played 14 matches this season in Serie A at Pisa. Three times, the Romanian midfielder was an unused reserve
Pisa has 10 points after 15 rounds and is in 18th place (relegable first), 4 “lengths” behind Cagliari, Genoa, Parma and Torino. With three consecutive defeats without a goal scored, a very dangerous situation for the future of the coach of the newly promoted team.
Reason why Gilardino lashed out at his players: “The team was unrecognizable, I'm very disappointed and I take full responsibility.
You can't go into a match like that without aggression and with that kind of attitude. If we don't give it our all, we become vulnerable to any opponent.
Alberto Gilardino: “I saw fragile players. We were slow, agitated, with many technical errors. I hope it's just an accident”
I had not the slightest inkling that there would be such a decline in form. On the contrary, I was convinced that everyone wanted to prove their worth in a direct confrontation.”
The coach of the Tuscan team complained that “we wanted a team willing to make sacrifices. It's my responsibility to take control of the situation and understand what happened. We lost two straight matches after six positive results in the series and the compliments I received.
I saw fragile players who didn't apply pressure at the right time and in the right way. We were slow, choppy, with technical errors that gave confidence to others.
I sincerely hope it's just an accident. Now we have the game against Cagliari and we have to try to get points against everyone.– Alberto GilardinoPisa's coach
I will talk to the players. We have to get over this moment, turn the page and find solutions. Lecce deserved to win”.
