“Score more? You can't think of inventing winning structures overnight, you have to take steps. If a team doesn't score, just look at the players' statistics: if someone has always scored one goal per season, you can't expect them to suddenly score ten”, explains the Italian coach.
Conte uses the example of Inter to underline the importance of set-piece situations: “They have scored 19 goals from set pieces. This means that they are structured to head and finish. We, on the other hand, increase the number of players with a resume of few goals”.
Training choices and mindset
As for the lineup, the coach clears up some doubts: "McTominay he had an overload and trained less. gilmour he played a great match with Inter. Those who deserve to play, there are no fixed places. There are eleven battles and those who are out must show me that they deserve to get in”.
Finally, on his state of mind before the race: “Am I angry? It’s normal to be tense before a game. I don’t come here and joke. I’ve always had this attitude 24 hours before the game. On Friday, maybe, I have a little more time to relax”, he concludes with a smile.
