Coach Paulo Fonseca spoke to DAZN ahead of the Hellas Verona-Milan match. Here are his statements:
Why not two strikers today?
"I think Morata is the only forward who can contribute defensively and almost play as an attacking midfielder. Abraham and Camarda are a different type of striker. Besides, we wouldn’t have had anyone as a substitute."
Is Theo Hernandez the arrow ready to come on?
"Theo is with us. I think Jimenez had a great game. He needs to keep playing, and that feels right to me. Theo, who has been working well, needs to wait to return. It’s a physical matter."
Filippo Terracciano in midfield tonight... Fonseca commented:
"He trains often as a midfielder. He’s a very intelligent player who understands the role well. Right now, we have the options of Liberali and Zeroli, who has only trained for two days… This is a different kind of game, against an aggressive team that marks man-to-man. I think Pippo is the right solution to start the game."
