From Rome to Como, again to Domus and again with a “sold out” or almost. Cagliari seeks confirmation, in its journey to find its own identity, «the one that, now», explains Nicola, «counts more than anything, even more than the result».
Mina and Viola are back, Palomino is also there, aiming for a starting shirt. Zortea remains out («but from Tuesday he will be back in», explains the coach) and Makoumbou, officially due to workloads, more likely for market reasons.
And speaking of the market still open, Nicola is more realistic than the king: «We don't have too many unresolved situations, 70 percent of the work was done before the retreat. Luckily there's not much time left. A more streamlined market would be better, but perhaps the dynamics of the outside world are decisive».
Cagliari meets Como a month after the friendly in Chatillon: "A world ago. We're meeting a team that's hard to define as newly promoted, a team that will be tough for everyone and that forces you to change the way you play as you go. It's a match I'm waiting for to see how we carry forward our plans and identity."
