The friendly against Frosinone closed a phase of the work. From tomorrow afternoon, when the group resumes work in the city, the mind will be projected on the first official commitments of the season. Meanwhile, the match played in Lazio against Di Francesco’s team offered many ideas. It was the most reliable test played so far, against a superior category opponent, which at times has undergone the liveliness of Cosenza. The rossoblùs showed personality and character, continuing to follow the instructions of their coach despite a goal conceded almost immediately due to the way in which the game proposal went haywire (Zuccon let himself be stolen a bloody ball in his own frontline allowing Harraoui to easily introduce himself in front of Micai). The roster is still incomplete.
Attack. On the high outer lanes, even against the Gialloblù, Caserta alternated various men lent to the cause, from Arioli to D’Urso, reaching Mazzocchi and Voca. In the advanced department, various pawns are missing. However, the coach from Reggio consoled himself with goals from Tutino and Zilli. The Neapolitan striker confirmed that he is the man appointed to solve the critical goal he accused last season. The footballer, since he returned to the Sila jersey, has always played the role of central striker. Position, therefore, that he should maintain even in the event that another element should arrive in this area of the pitch. The coach is also getting good results from the Friulian class of 2002, who scored with a nice twist for the temporary 2-2. The 4-2-3-1 currently appears untouchable. To be understood if there will be changes to the system later. Florenzi, still on the sidelines (he’s grappling with his specific program, he has never been used in the pre-season so far), could find space in one of the three boxes on the chessboard behind the striker.
Midfield. Cosenza continues to look for a player able to lend a hand in the setup phase. The silanes want to think with the ball at their feet, looking for the ball maneuver on the ground and for this reason the goal is to add phosphorus. To get to Mattia Viviani you need to reach an agreement with Benevento which has not yet occurred. Therefore the transfer market risks being blocked. Calò offered good flashes. Zuccon, as mentioned, was the protagonist of the “accident” that caused the first disadvantage. Caserta, also for this reason, seems to “see” less Voca, the surprise protagonist of the 3-3 Euro goal.
Defence. Three goals conceded, albeit against a Serie A team, is a lot. Frosinone gave the feeling of being able to strike in more than one circumstance even in line-up defence. The mechanisms will have to be perfected. The brave Cosenza of Caserta wants to propose a very strong aggression and engage in several individual duels. In Frosinone, another indication may have arrived that Rigione is not at the top of the hierarchies of the coach who employed Meroni and Venturi from the first minute and then adapted Cimino alongside the former Cremonese centre-back at the start of the second half. Any clues that it’s on the market? The captain, who came on less than 20′ from the end, is in late condition and it won’t be easy for him to recover, as he will certainly also miss the first two championship matches due to disqualification. Meanwhile, in the Italian Cup, he could still be left out from the start. Hristov also resists on the list of starters, for whom the rossoblù have rejected two loan options for the moment. The Bulgarian doesn’t mind Caserta but Guarascio wants to get back from the investment made for him. Placing it outright is not easy. Finally, the announcement of the renewals of D’Orazio and Martino is expected by the hour.
