After the important win in the first game of the group stages in Europa League against Apollon, Simone Inzaghi's Lazio gets back to Serie A against Genoa. With 6 points won in 4 games, the Biancocelesti's coach has talked in the traditional press conference.
"We're looking for the right balance. I'm satisfied but we can't allow us to make mistakes now. Luis Alberto? He didn't miss the summer retreat even if he had a few problems. He's only missed some ball exercices. He wouldn't have played last Thursday if Correa was there. I'm still expecting improvements from him, he's got all my trust and he'll soon be devastating again".
Inzaghi has then talked about Milinkovic-Savic: "He's the one who's missed a bit of the retreat. He's sensitive and heard some of the critics towards him. He'll start making the difference again soon". Tomorrow's game will see a lot of ex-biancocelesti face each other: "It will be a pleasure to see Ballardini, my former coach, then there's Pandev and that will be a pleasure too even if he's always made me cry when we've faced each other as opponents, scoring every time. I wish Marchetti the best as I really wanted him when I arrived, he's been my first goalkeeper".
"I still have to evaluate some players. Luiz Felipe, Berisha won't be there, Radu won't probably either. We're taking one game at the time, I haven't decided who will start yet. We've done extraordinary things and the expectations have grown bigger. We'll do our best and we'll see what the results on the pitch will say. We've only played 5 games between Serie A and Europa League, there are so many to come. We know Genoa well, we lost three very important points to them last year at home. We know we'll face a very well coached team".
About their opponent's offensive unit: "Piatek is really strong, he always scores and will be specially observed but Pandev too. We have too be more cynical and have practiced our shots".
