Serse Cosmi wants to see a ‘courageous and shameless’ Crotone against Bologna on Saturday.
Crotone have picked up three points in as many games with Cosmi at the helm, but they have conceded 10 goals in the process and currently sit eight points behind safety.
“We must only look at ourselves without thinking of others and without being influenced by other results,” Cosmi said at a press conference.
Serse Cosmi wants to see a ‘courageous and shameless’ Crotone against Bologna on Saturday.
Crotone have picked up three points in as many games with Cosmi at the helm, but they have conceded 10 goals in the process and currently sit eight points behind safety.
“We must only look at ourselves without thinking of others and without being influenced by other results,” Cosmi said at a press conference.
“Our position requires us to have courage and shameless. We concede too many goals. We must learn to defend ourselves better in some situations.
“The team need to improve in defence. I never thought that a team that concedes so many goals, only suffers due to the defenders.”
Cosmi claimed Sinisa Mihajlovic’s men play without any pressure and wants to see focused Crotone players against Bologna.
“Bologna are a team to face with great attention,” he said. “They play very lightly and at this time of the season they can create even more problems for their opponents.”
Cosmi confirmed he must cope without Napoli loanee Adam Ounas and winger Arkadiusz Reca.
“Ounas is out with a first-degree injury,” he said. “Unfortunately, Reca is absent too, due to a very particular problem.
“He has quite severe otitis and has not slept well these days. I must add that [Sebastiano] Luperto is not at his best either and will not be in the match."
