Rudi Garcia insisted Roma deserved the win of Cagliari
and that Mattia Destro is the ‘complete striker’.
Roma were able to ease past Cagliari thanks to a Destro
Hattrick on Sunday afternoon and close the gap on Juventus to five points in
Serie A.
‘’We certainly deserved the win and in the second half we
saw a great rally from the team and an ability to exploit and use the space on
the pitch,’’ he told Sky Sport Italia.
‘’The game was fluid and you just have to congratulate
the boys.
‘’We have prepared well for the game and used our
strengths against their weaknesses but it wasn’t that wasy however, partly
because we haven’t won here in 19 years.’’
When questioned on Mattia Destro, Garcia responded, ‘’He
is a complete striker and he has shown how lethal is especially if you look at
the second goal.
‘’It was also a good team game and we were very polished
despite the rough start.
‘’I know him [Gervinho] very well and he can makes a
difference,’’ Garcia stated when question about the initial scepticism over
playing the Ivorian.
‘’He has an ability to get round opponents with ease. I
wanted him because he grew up with me, first at Le Mans then to Lille where we
won the league cup double in France.’’
Finally, Garcia was asked about the situation regarding
the Scudetto, ‘’It was our goal and now the pressure is on those at the top’’.
‘’The fight for first place is still open but
unfortunately fate is not in our hands.
‘’I wanted to restore pride to players and to the fans in
such a case, we have already won.’
