Now We'll See If We Can Play With Two 'Structured' Attackers or With a Target Man Plus a Lighter Player Alongside the Main Striker

Cagliari coach Fabio Pisacane said his team is in good shape and ready to take on Serie A champions Inter Milan at the Domus on Saturday evening, despite a daunting recent record against the Nerazzurri. The Sardinian club has lost its last six home games against Inter, and Lautaro Martinez has scored 12 goals in 12 appearances against Cagliari. "A red-flag match, Pisacane said in a press conference, "but a team like ours must always be recognizable.

It will be essential to use the levers of attention and humility. To overturn the prediction we must multiply everything we saw in Parma. Cagliari opened the season with a 3-0 win at Parma, but now face a tougher test.

"Inter has changed little, it is consolidating what it already knew how to do and has other arrows in its bow." It deservedly won the championship, Chivu deserves it as a coach and as a man, Pisacane added. The coach is considering fielding two strikers, with Mendy and Carlos both impressing in training. "Mendy did well against Parma, but I also liked Carlos in training.

Now we'll see if we can play with two 'structured' attackers or with a target man plus a lighter player alongside the main striker. I still have to decide," he said. There are also doubts in defense, as Deiola played well as a central defender in front of Caprile in Parma, but leaving out a player like Mina is difficult.

"We'll see in the final session, we need every drop of sweat from every player, the coach said. The week has been marked by transfers, including Zappa's move to Verona. "It happens to all teams, Pisacane said, which is why we hope this window can be shorter in the future.

The real good news of this week is that Trepy (the French striker risked drowning in a pool two weeks ago) has left Sassari hospital: we hope he can soon return to doing what he loves. For the rest, the club knows what I ask. And I'm sure Adopo will stay at Cagliari.
