Atalanta assistant supervisor Tullio Gritti admits their eighth consecutive Serie A victory provides them ‘consciousness’ of their new degree and followers have each proper to dream of the Scudetto.

That is a rare run of outcomes for La Dea, who’ve now gained their final eight Serie A video games on the bounce and are the

They’re now closing on the membership document of 9 straight victories earned between February and July 2020.

They weren’t as sharp or dominant as regular on the Stadio Olimpico towards Roma, however due to a deflected Marten de Roon strike and the late Nicolò Zaniolo glancing header on a Juan Cuadrado nook.

Zaniolo was dealing with his former membership and this created some stress when he celebrated wildly, taking off his shirt and working to the part of Atalanta supporters behind the aim.

Gritti sees Atalanta evolving

Coach Gian Piero Gasperini was within the stands for the primary of a two-match touchline ban, so assistant Gritti was each on the bench and within the press space.

“This was the victory to present us consciousness we’ve got reached an necessary degree. We suffered, as a result of Roma have gamers value way over 13 factors, they’re going via a tough interval, however stay a very good staff,”

“We’re very robust in the intervening time as a result of we handle to carry out below stress, however can then do harm after we go on the assault. The notice of our power goes during the squad, those that begin and are available off the bench, giving us a really excessive degree.”

“Proper now, our place makes us smile and we should be there. It’s all thanks to those lads, who’re marvellous in each area.”

Gasperini is repeatedly requested if that is the strongest Atalanta squad he’s ever had, so what does assistant supervisor Gritti suppose?

“These questions appear to be requested yearly. I believe we’ve had squads simply as robust, albeit with completely different traits, and so they achieved nice outcomes. They may not have the identical explicit model, however during the last 9 years we’ve got carried out nice issues.

“Admittedly, we’re increased up than regular, however these outcomes have been earned by day by day coaching and fixed work. Whether or not it’s the strongest staff or not, we depart that as much as you to say.”

Atalanta now face Milan on Friday and Gasperini continues his touchline ban, so Gritti will once more be on the touchline, not that he’s too blissful about it.

“I must get up for an additional hour and a half. I desire to be seated…”
