D’Aversa: Darmian, Gagliolo, Gervinho…

Parma boss Roberto D’Aversa confirms Matteo Darmian will miss SPAL, feels ‘honoured’ by Riccardo Gagliolo’s Sweden call and tips Gervinho to bounce back.

Darmian was absent for Parma’s 3-2 win against Torino on Monday with a thigh injury, and the former Manchester United man will remain so tomorrow.

“Laurini and Darmian will not take part in the pitch, Matteo hasn’t recovered and he’ll be back after the international break,” D’Aversa said at a Press conference.

“Everyone else is in the squad. In that part of the pitch, I have five players and I’ll make evaluations.

“Iacoponi has already played at right-back so I’m calm about that. I don’t think we have a number five to play with a back three but regardless of the system, it’s important to play with the right attitude.

“We’ve changed different aspects of our tactics in different games and what matters is getting positive results.

“In sporting terms, it will be a battle and we need to be ready for 95 minutes of ‘war’ and the result is as important for us as it is for them.”

Gagliolo earned a place in the Sweden squad for the upcoming international break, at the age of 29 and with just three seasons of Serie A football under his belt.

“We’re all happy for Gagliolo, it’s a great honour,” added the Coach.

“Everyone who starts at a young age dreams of making it and playing international football. Through determination and hard work, anything can happen.

“Cornelius is an important player, it’s always nice to have selection headaches up front because you can start in different ways and make changes during games.

“In defence we don’t have this issue so much but I’d prefer to have it as it also improves the quality in training. While he’s played less, Andreas has always given 100%.”

Gervinho missed a penalty against Toro, so will D’Aversa change his default taker?

“We’ll decide tomorrow, great players also make mistakes. It doesn’t determine everything about a player or their performance.

“We’ll make evaluations until the very end, Kucka could start as he’s fit enough. Inglese had some issues before the Torino game, we’ll look at him.

“He’s come back but not got fully over it but he’s never stopped showing great attachment to this shirt.”

Parma Coach Roberto D’Aversa “expected a stronger fightback” in the 2-0 defeat to Lazio, a third loss in four games.

Ciro Immobile and Adam Marusic scored either side of the break at the Stadio Olimpico this evening.

“Compared to last weekend, it was a worse performance, even if the result ultimately was the same,” the Coach told Sky Sport Italia.

“We did better towards half-time, but it was not enough. I expected perhaps a stronger fightback once we went 2-0 down, but Lazio did well to control the tempo and close off the spaces.

“I do feel we were a little too passive and should’ve fought to the last minute.”

Roberto D’Aversa confessed Parma have “regrets over the result, as we could’ve brought home a point” against Juventus.

An early Giorgio Chiellini flick, redirecting an already deflected Alex Sandro volley, proved to be the only difference between the teams at the Stadio Tardini.

“There are regrets over the result, especially considering the second half performance,” said the Parma Coach in his Press conference.

“With a little more determination, we could’ve brought home a point. There are positive aspects, we played on level terms with Juventus, even if the regrets remain.

“Several Juve players ended the game with cramp, so physically we are in good shape. We have to improve in some of our decision-making, especially as we conceded on a corner. Gaston Brugman had a good performance, but he can do better, especially in his timing.

“The defence did a good job all in all, as we only really had problems in the first half dealing with Douglas Costa’s pace. On the goal, there should’ve been someone on the edge of the area to catch the rebound, but once a ball takes two deflections, a goal can happen.”

Parma boss Roberto D’Aversa has called on the club’s fans to play their part against Juventus as ‘100 percent might not be enough.’

Parma kick off the new Serie A season against Juve, who have won the last eight Scudetti, and D’Aversa urged supporters to get behind the team, while demanding the ‘perfect’ game from his players.

“We know how much the city cares about this game, it will be difficult but the aim is to look to get points,” the Coach said at a Press conference, as per the Ducali’s official website.

“We’ll have to play the perfect game, I’m sure that we’ll have the crowd behind us and we must do everything to bring home the points.

“Their team is worth a lot and I’m certainly sorry that [Sarri] won’t be there for health reasons and I also take this opportunity to send my best wishes to Mihajlovic because it’s not nice that they’re out for health reasons.

“Juventus can put you in difficulty and woe betides anyone who thinks their job will be easier for one reason or another.

“We need to do well and work with our DNA that means staying compact and desire to get results.

“I told the team that everyone will be watching tomorrow. On our part, we want to test ourselves against the best with our personal pride and desire to show that who’s stronger on paper isn’t always reflected on the pitch.

“Tomorrow, we can’t make any mistakes. In the week, we worked on tactics as we know the opponent and we have to play with the will to make it difficult for them. 100 percent might not be enough, the crowd will certainly push us on to go beyond.

“I trust in players who could be set to make their Serie A debuts like Hernani or Brugman. Juve are a really strong side, we can’t think that we have any advantages when we play tomorrow.

“What I want is for the team to show the same attitude from last season. It all depends on how we approach every game. It all depends on how we approach each game.

“We must be the first to believe we can get results, the guys know we must show this determination and there’s a gap between us and them. We must take them on with our compact spirit and the support of the crowd.

“Sarri promotes a certain type of football, where Allegri perhaps left players alone he looks to implement certain tactical solutions.

“They will be organised, they’ll look to play their game and move the ball a lot with a tight side, we’ll also have to deal with strong individuals so we must be ready and focused.”
