The former Catania head coach was not perturbed by the draw between the Gigliati and Verona, and remarked on his views over the friendly match and Stevan Jovetic.
The Artemio Franchi outfit never looked like troubling the scoring board in their friendly against Verona. However, Montella was not reading too much into the score line and remarked that he was trying out a few tactical changes in their match against the
Gialloblu.
The Viola were lucky not to lose the match, as they were awarded a penalty in the match as well, however, they had http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Cristiano-Lupatelli-c9628 to thank for as he saved from the resulting kick.
Coach Montella was talking after the match and he was of the opinion that his team played a good match against a good quality opposition. He conceded that his team was not always in control, but looked for positives in the match against the Mastini. He went
on to state:
“We made some mistakes, but that was inevitable. It was a useful and difficult test. All in all, I am happy, although the indications I got from the match were not all positive.”
He went on to comment on the role he had given to http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Stevan-Jovetic-c34163, as he wants to assess the versatility of Jovetic. Montella commented that he wanted to see how the supporting striker played in the lead role, as he already knows how he operates on the left.
The former Giallorossi player went on to state:
“I am testing Stevan Jovetic in this new position in the centre of the attack. I want to understand what he can give there, whereas I already know what he can do on the left.”
Jovetic has been in the news for a transfer to Juventus, however, Andrea Della Valle has stated that the striker would be staying on at the Florence based club for at least another year.
Verona are currently in the Serie B, which was the reason why there was so much concern over the relative lacklustre affair. In a similar friendly Siena overcame Aris Salonika by a solitary goal. Parma won against Renate by 4-1 in their midweek friendly
match.
