Squad rotation? We don't have many available players at the moment. We'll make some changes based on the condition of the players who played last game".

The coach then touched upon the situation of the injured players: "De Sciglio has been training with the squad for aa few days, he was sidelined for a bit and he needs to re cover a good physical condition.
