Speaking to Radiosei , Delio Rossi commented on Maurizio Sarri's return to the Lazio bench, also commenting on the comparison made by patron Lotito regarding the choice of colleague De Laurentiis with Conte on the Napoli bench. These are Delio Rossi 's words: "Lazio believes that with the change of coach the squad can be enhanced more. I think the value of the squad is sixth, seventh place.

Then if a miracle happens, they get fourth, eighth if things go badly. With all things considered, evaluating the quality of Lazio and their opponents, there are some that are stronger than the Biancocelesti. Let's see if Bologna and Fiorentina will confirm themselves, only that if Lazio doesn't make any purchases, the others still have to leave. Responsibility on Sarri? At the very moment he decided to return, with these means, I think he himself is convinced he can do well. What would bother me would be the lack of correctness and perhaps short circuits here that occurred two years ago.

Comparison with De Laurentiis' move with Conte? No mention was made of the great market made last summer to the Salento coach. That tends to make the difference, like the fact that the team in tenth place is the same one that won the Scudetto the year before. If you take a coach like Sarri, knowing him, you know how he works, you have to follow him to the end and without hesitation. All the components must say things as they are. People are not stupid, if you have the same team and you want to put the blame on the Baroni of the moment, perhaps you are not telling the absolute truth".
