Meeting Highlights…ABOUT MATCH
We are aware of the importance of this period, and of this match, which matters, for all of us. This is why we decided to stay one more night, last night, together. There is no punitive intent for anyone, it's an idea I had a few days ago, I talked about it with the boys and they agreed. We must overcome this phase together and take responsibility.
…NEED IMPROVEMENT
The defensive phase is the one we need to take care of the most, beyond the individuals, I mean as a team. Then, it is also true that there are moments in football when you concede few chances and many goals, and this is what is happening to us.
…INJURY REPORT
Unfortunately Milik suffered some discomfort in training, he will be re-evaluated after the break: it's a shame, he did well last Sunday and also scored a goal. However, we have everyone in attack: Kean, Vlahovic, Chiesa and Yildiz. Furthermore, Perin, De Sciglio return and obviously Rabiot is also available, although he doesn't have the 90 minutes in his legs: we need to be positive.

Alberto Gilardino
Manager on Genoa…INJURY REPORT
Martin, Matturro and Ekuban will be out but Haps and Ankeye are back. Malinovskyi is better than in the last 15 days when he had a flu virus. He is also clearly improving physically. I will have to carry out some evaluations with him from the start or during the race. The others very well.
…ABOUT MATCH
It's a difficult team to meet. It's a team that has based this season on the attitude of all its players. They have players who can change the game at any moment. But, as we saw in the first leg, what counts is what we want to do on the pitch. That's what changes the balance of the match.
…IMPROVEMENTS
We have made clear improvements from September to today, both in the defensive phase and in the construction and in the desire to search for spaces. There is certainly the possibility of improving and also giving continuity to the improvements.
