18.16 – After the match against Bologna, Vanja Milinkovic-Savic spoke at the press conference. These are the statements from the rossoblu goalkeeper collected by Tuttomercatoweb.com at the press conference:
How did you see Bologna?
“They are a physical team with many players over 190 centimetres. There was the push after the saved penalty, it was time to do something more”
But what more can you do?
“A few fewer mistakes for sure. But Bologna plays in the Champions League, you also have to accept it…For me it's nice to play against a strong team, we should have done more: I see how we train and how we play, I'm someone who talks a lot and everyone sacrifices”
A comment on the second goal
“I didn't see anything…Zero. There were too many people in front. I should see him again”
How sorry are you?
“It was the perfect moment to make a switch after Empoli. If we had won, the history of the championship would have changed”
How do you experience the protest?
“We have to concentrate on the pitch, not off it: we have to give everything”
Is this his best season?
“I have improved mentally. Before Juric I didn't play, then he gave me confidence and it took me some time to stay calm on the pitch. Now I enjoy all the moments”
How do we start again after this other misstep?
“We just lacked the shot…We need to give more, look in the mirror and understand if we can do more. Everyone must be honest with themselves”
What did Vanoli tell you to try to get out of this blackout?
“I'll keep it to ourselves…We talked, he'll say so if he wants”
Is the crisis just the result of Zapata's injury?
“I don't know…It's obvious that without Duvan you lose a lot, we all see it. If there's something else, I don't know. We lost a quality player”
