AS Roma's Fonseca has a solution to cope with their injury crises
AS Roma head coach Paulo Fonseca considers utilizing a four-person rear guard against Benevento and uncovers the reason behind Bryan Reynolds' return to the United States.
Any semblance of Chris Smalling, Roger Ibanez, Bryan Cristante, and Marash Kumbulla are sidelined, and Fonseca is thinking about his choices in front of the She-Wolf's
Serie Aface-off against Benevento.
"Benevento are a strong team, they build wisely, and they are a dangerous team to attack deep down," Fonseca said at a press conference.
"We must be 100% focused, they are very aggressive right now, they will need a good game defensively."
How is the 47-year-old coach adapting to Roma's injury emergency?
“I’ve thought about a four-man defence, but you’ll have to wait and see what happens tomorrow,” the coach claimed.
“[Leonardo] Spinazzola has changed. It was due to the new system and his collapsed move to Inter one year ago.
“The system is important, he’s been playing on a regular basis and a player needs to feel this kind of trust,” Fonseca explained.
“I hope Cristante will return for the second leg clash against Braga, while both Kumbulla and Smalling are feeling better, but I think Kumbulla will return earlier.”
Will Borja Mayoral beginning in front of
Edin Dzeko
?
“You’ll see tomorrow,” Fonseca replied.
How is
Bryan Reynolds
' situation at the moment?
“We can’t forget he hadn’t played for two months. He needs individual trainings to recover his best fitness.
“Now, he is back in the United States to solve some bureaucratic problems, we are working with him to let him work with the team quickly.”
