Genoa.

There is no point in making a lot of tactical speeches if the referee, Irrati, somehow makes you lose it. I am very frustrated writing this article. On top of that, Genoa changed their coach and my observations are based on Ballardini and not Sheva. I honestly don't know what to expect from Sheva, but I'm sure Roma. if he plays to his maximum and Irrati is impartial, can win and win easily.

As for the usual political and cultural angle, I don't want to teach anyone anything in a didactic way. Genoa has a fantastic history and very interesting characters such as Don Luigi Gallo, Fabrizio De Andrè, if we really don't want to bother Cristoforo Colombo.

I will limit myself to underlining the current ethical disintegration of the country. Just think that owner whose name I have not mentioned who has two clubs in Serie A and who has played COVID positive players could even become a Senator. In the 70s and 80s there were more moral rules. In fact, when there was Mani Pulite, the scandal was enormous. In reality, at a political and societal level, the situation has worsened and it is also an understatement to relegate this speech to football, if one thinks that tax evasion in 2018 was 110 billion (here you can find the article by SKYTG24) and, in my opinion, this is a very optimistic projection.

These are the observations on Ballardini's Genoa.

Under construction they start with 3 behind with Cambiaso on the midfielders line. This is why they are unbalanced on the right side, because they don't play with a real left winger. Criscito should be the left-back, but due to the characteristics and needs of the teams he often plays the central back and in the attacking phase tries to trigger Galdames who then crosses. On their right, Sturaro overlaps Cambiaso, who has much more offensive characteristics than Criscito. In the first 15 minutes, expect intense pressing. With us they will mainly defend and counterattack. The most dangerous player is Destro, but he is little served. Mattia is dangerous on the crosses of Fares or Cambiaso, especially with the acrobatic solution. Also beware of Kallon who is a very interesting left winger.

It is essential to have a head in difficult situations, but also the heart to put your leg in contrasts. Game to win. Daje Roma!
