Chievo mid week news!

By: Mostafa | November 4th, 2008

Here are some chievo news bits ON THE FLY,

At least now we know why we don’t fly……

OK let’s start off with this;

Apparently palermo players are soooo happy for this victory against Chievo, but wasn’t that expected…

Miccoli

“Our strength stems from the unity of our group of players,”
“We were more compact yesterday and managed to convert the scoring opportunities we created. Now, we look forward to our next meetings, which will be extremely testing.”
“It was a great feeling, and I am happy that my team-mates and the coach trust me,”
“Our aim is to give our all every Sunday and then we will see where we stand. I think we can have a clearer picture of our ambitions between January and February.”

Does that mean they won’t play on Saturdays ?? lol just joking palermo fans!!

it is obvious that they LIKED the victory, apart from ;
Bad pitch ??
Bad ball ??

Cavani on the victory;

“Football is like that, you miss and you score goals,”
“I missed two chances but I did score, I have to continue working hard to keep improving.
“The pitch was bad, the ball didn’t bounce well. But we earned three points which are important for us. Palermo are a team who fight against any team and we have also shown it against the best sides. If we play like this we can cause problems to a lot of teams, we are on the right road.”

OK that was the palermo players on the match, now here is some REAL chievo news;

“THE COACH” is in doubt!

we might just lose him to Pillon…
here’s what HE* had to say;
*pillon

“I don’t know, right now I haven’t received any phone call,”
“For the time being, no-one called me up. I read on the newspapers that I was linked to the Chievo Verona bench.
“However, my first thought goes to Iachini: I don’t usually try to jinx my colleagues.”
“When one is at home, he always waits anxiously for a phone call to return to work on a bench,”

Self defense is the first reaction anyone could do;

The coach on what could be his removal;

“Seeing the result you might be deceived,”
“We hit posts and bars, but we failed to score, even though we did not do badly.
“I have nothing to reprimand my squad, which pushed forward for the goal.”

Iachini does not want to worry about his future at the club, even though everything seems to point out that he might be shown the door in the coming days.

“It’s up to the club to decide on the bench,”
“I only think about the pitch.
“Unfortunately today it did not go too well, but let’s look at the upcoming games.”

Yeah let’s do that
JUVENTUS

AC MILAN

SIENA I SEE THE LIGHT!!!!! (although we will probably lose to them too )
