“I’ve been saying for a while that it’s not a physical problem, not a tactical problem, but it’s a mental question. We can’t take the lead in the 90th minute and then concede a goal like that. On our first goal, we conceded a goal after two or three minutes. It’s difficult to explain that. Honestly, I don’t know how to coach this type of team.”. This is what Gennaro Gattuo said at the microphone of Canal + moments after the frustrating draw (2-2) conceded against Shakhtar Donetsk in the first leg of the Europa League play-offs.

A statement that did not fail to provoke a reaction from Olympian supporters, shocked by such an admission of helplessness. Yes, but here we are, the translation of the last sentence of the Italian technician changes the situation somewhat. Indeed, according to EurosportGattuso’s words (editor’s note: when he said: “I don’t know how to coach this type of team”) were not about the team itself but rather about the team when it has mental difficulties. An important clarification even if the future of the Transalpine still remains debated on the Canebière.
