Nicola: 'Genoa back to Plan A'

This was the Grifone’s first victory since October 26, which was the debut of their last coach, Thiago Motta.

Nicola represents the third different tactician to sit on the Genoa bench this season, as Andreazzoli was fired on October 22.

“When I arrived, the statistics showed there were areas to be improved, such as conceding 35 goals,” he told Sky Sport Italia. We worked on both the possibility of increasing vertical passes going forward and asking the lads to remain balanced when attacking and defending. I am not an alchemist. I just believe this team earned an important victory and that can increase the confidence in working on these concepts ".
