Luis Enrique furious after 3-0 thrashing against Valencia: Serie A news
A.S Roma’s poor pre-season continued as they suffered a 3-0 humiliating defeat at the hands of Spanish side, Valencia, at the Mestalla on August 12, 2011.
Manager, Luis Enrique, is furious with his team’s performance and has asked them to learn from their mistakes ahead of their crucial UEFA Europa League game against Slovan Bratislava.
Enrique believes that his team conceded soft goals from childish errors and they did not learned from their mistakes throughout the game. The 43-year-old believes that no team can afford to make such huge errors against a team
of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Valencia-c40863’s calibre and they deserved to be paid for it.
Talking to the reporters Enrique said, "The first two goals came from childish errors and these games you cannot gift opposition of Valencia's level these kind of things. If you are not 100 per cent focused then you run many risks
in games like these, especially against Valencia who were better than us.
"We must improve in many areas and there is still plenty of work to do as we did not play like a team. We have to attack and defend as a team. If we cannot do this then we will not win."
The former Barcelona B manager is under huge scrutiny since his appointment as the head coach of the club. The new owners showed faith in him to implement http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Barcelona-c38604 philosophy at the Stadio Olimpico Rome but he has failed to deliver
the required results thus far.
With the Serie A season just two weeks from resumption, the former Real Madrid star is not happy with his team’s preparations and they must pull up their socks in time. The manager is expecting few new signings before the 2011/12
campaign starts and is reportedly closing in on the signing of Villarreal’s http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nilmar-c28044.
The Giallorossi will kick start their season with a Europa League game against Slovakian side, Slovan Bratislava, on Thursday, August 18, 2011. They will play their first league game away to Bologna on August 28th, 2011.
