Esposito still not at his best, the coach avoids the topic of goalkeepers

Tuttosport analyzes three aspects that need improvement in the team preparing for the new season. One of the main issues concerns lapses in concentration at decisive moments, when instead it would be necessary to keep attention high.

The second point touches on the issue of goalkeepers. For now, the coach avoids answering questions about the hierarchy between the posts, but sooner or later it will be necessary to designate a starter. Martinez, perhaps also due to what happened off the field, seems to need to feel a lot of trust around him to perform at his best. The uncertainty about roles might not represent an incentive to outdo themselves, even though both Martinez and Provedel have always done well when called upon.

The last aspect observed by the newspaper concerns Pio Esposito. After last season, no one doubts that he will be very useful to the Nerazzurri cause again this year, probably more than before. The point is that, despite having a physique that is anything but frail, he is taking longer than expected to reach ideal condition.

It is likely, however, that he will be the one to start from the first minute against Monza in the opening match of the championship. Lautaro and Thuram are coming off the World Cup and arrived yesterday at Appiano for their first day of training.
