Italy, Ventura: “We go to Spain to win. Spinazzola?…”

The Italian coach held a press conference ahead of the match against Spain

ITALY VENTURA / The Italian national team will face Spain and Israel in a double match valid for the qualification to the World Cup. Giampiero Ventura held a press conference ahead of these matches.

“The National team pays the consequences of a long transfer market session. It would be better to stop it right before the beginning of the season.

Insigne is a very important player for Napoli and for us. He is playing well and I hope he will continue on this path.

We are going to Spain to win. We have only one possible result. However, there's a reason if Italy didn't win in Spain in the past 70 years. We have to think about the double match. It would be crazy if we defeat Spain and then lose points against Israel. I am very excited to face these national teams. 

Verratti is ready to play. He can do every role of the midfield. 

Yesterday, Belotti scored a great goal. I firmly believe that he can improve even more.

We could play with different tactical schemes. We want to create a club environment within the national team. I would like to accelerate the growth of those players that will have to replace the oldest. I am excited to start new stages soon. 

VAR? We need to be patient. This is a technology that must be improved.

Spinazzola is included in this group because I believe that it is very important to give continuity to this group. I don't care if he didn't play the first two matches. We are just at the beginning of the season.”
