 Toro not shaken by the beating
Milano, 9th of December 2006 - Torino boss and Inter fan Tanel Tursk said that the 3-4 loss againist Nerazzurri won't kill his team's spirit. Though he hints at replacing Cristiano Lupatelli.
 Lupatelli position was put under doubt
Though since Cristiano Lupatelli has conceeded numerous goals already in the league Tanel Tursk may finally bench the Italian as the young Brazilian protegee Andre Zuba is back in full fitness.
"Lupatelli has saved us quite a few times. Sorry, not few, I'd say tons. But the original "deal" was that he'll be back-up for Andre Zuba and we have him back after injury now. I think I may give Zuba a shot and see as at the moment we are conceeding lots of goals. 'Lupo' is in bad form, this thing can happen."
Though Torino side has now lost it's form with just one point from last couple of Serie A games, but Tursk says his side can bounce back on Wednesday againist Roma already.
"We are not in bad form. We just have many tough games in a row. We won convincingly againist Palermo if people have forgotten. I see us bouncing back soon, maybe we could even win all of our remaining games in December."
"I'm not happy with our display. I was hoping to end Inter's unbeatten run, but it didn't go through . We only got five shots on goal, though to hand it to the lads all of those were great chances. And to consider that we scored three goals and missed just two times is pleasant thing. We still lack in air though and sometimes we fail to get hold of the midfield, like againist Udinese."
Torino's next game where Andre Zuba may start is Roma and then soon they'll meet Parma and Palermo. |
