In an interview with the Roma Sports newspaper, Bologna coach Mikhailovic talked about vaccinations, failure to play against Inter Milan, his career, his approach to coaching Juventus, his feelings about Inter Milan, and the battle for the Serie A title.
About vaccinations
"15 days ago, I had a fever, but I already had more than 7,000 antibodies in my body and my molecular tests were negative, so I thought the solution was to get a third dose of the vaccine. In our team, Sansone doesn't want to be vaccinated, no one forces him, everyone has their own ideas, which is understandable. But if the regulatory authorities explicitly require everyone to get three doses of the vaccine, then we have to all follow the instructions and get vaccinated, which is obviously safer, that's my idea. ”
About the failure to play against Inter Milan
"I hope to play against Inter Milan, but now in Bologna we have 10 players who tested positive for COVID-19 and they all got the second dose, but there are still people who haven't given the third dose. We plan to get a third dose of the vaccine next Monday and Tuesday for all of our staff, and then we are told we will resume training on Tuesday. Why are you in such a hurry? We had a week of training with almost no first-team players, and we were basically working with the players in the reserves. So what's normal about that? If the league continues in this way, what is the rule? ”
About your career
"In my career, sometimes I've been kicked away, sometimes I've chosen to leave. But I always did better than those who preceded me and replaced me. I am neither disappointed nor regretful. I gave my all against Juventus, but Conte hesitated and the club didn't want to excuse him, he left first. But anyway, go to his..."
About having been close to coaching Juventus
"At that time, Allegri, Mancini and Spalletti all broke their contracts with the previous team and Juventus chose me, when I was still in charge of Sampdoria, and I gave a clear date, because at that time Juventus proposed to sign me a year later. But then they didn't look for me again. I think if I went to Juve to coach, I would also win some titles. ”
About previous negotiations with Napoli and the battle for the Serie A title this season
"I remember all those words that De Laurentiis told me now, and I think the idea that he said the chairman was responsible for signing players and the coach was responsible for training players was wrong, it was a complete mistake. So, in the process of our negotiations, we encountered obvious obstacles, which were out of sync with each other. In the end, negotiations became difficult and did not go to the end. But I still hope napoli can win the Serie A this season because I like the Napoli players very much and they have a good squad. ”
About Inter Milan
"Inter is my second home, but I've always had a special affection for Napoli."
