The head coach of the Florence based outfit has been subjected to acclaim by the Viola Chief Executive, who has remarked on the impact made by the young Italian.
For a team battling to avoid relegation in the previous season, the fans of the Gigliati would be ecstatic by the position they find themselves after a quarter of the season has passed. The Fiorentina outfit are sitting in the fourth position of the Serie
A standings with a tally of 21 points to their name from the 11 matches they have played in the Italian Championship.
Despite selling one of their main player, http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Riccardo-Montolivo-c31049, in the summer transfer window on a free transfer; the Artemio Franchi outfit did not let that affect their plans for the summer and they made sure that they brought in quality players to fill
various voids found in the squad.
At the back end of last season, the Gigliati made a number of changes, which included players and the management as well. Vincenzo Montella came in as the head coach from Catania, whereas the club signed a new sporting director in Daniele Prade.
The CEO at the Florence outfit was talking to the press upon his entrance at the offices of FIGC and during his interview, he went on to remark on the situation at the club, and the changes that had taken places at the back end of last season. He also reflected
on their position in the Lega and remarked the architect behind it all was the former AS http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Roma-c31603 caretaker head coach.
Mencucci remarked on the happiness he felt at the club while also stressing on the importance to remain grounded, and was quoted to have said:
“It’s a good time for us, objectively being fourth is wonderful because it changes the whole team. This position is certainly nice to be in, but we must keep our feet on the ground. The director of this has been [Vincenzo] Montella, also Prade and Masia,
but Montella is the true director, he is really good, he is very well prepared as are his staff, I hope he can stay here with us to win something.”
Fiorentina had a resounding victory against Cagliari after defeating them 4-1 on the 11th match day of the Serie A.
