“We remain scorched from suffering last season, but the experience teaches us. We’ll wait until further on before we see the possibility of cultivating different ambitions and we’ll make further assessments, as now is too early to do so.
“There’s a goal that we would like to make a priority and that’s having Genoa reach its 500th victory in Serie A in a single round.
“Even if it’s limiting not to consider the preceding periods, we see the history and the role that this club has played since the beginning of football.
“I didn’t expect our season to start the way it did. If I succeed to play well, it’s a merit of my team-mates also, as we’re all working as a whole for the good of Genoa.”
