Lazio Coach Davide Ballardini: A Ritiro Could Be An Option
The continued poor form of the Aquile has prompted the coach to consider a training camp away from the frenzy of their usual environment. The club's training ground was invaded by ultras earlier this week...
Lazio coach Davide Ballardini is considering the option of locking the team down in ritiro following their latest defeat in the league.
The Aquile lost 1-0 at home to Cagliari on Wednesday night, and the result has clearly left Ballardini with plenty to ponder. Lazio have only amassed just four points in eight games. Organisation and better housekeeping is needed, and the Italian thinks that calm surroundings are also important.
"We will evaluate this option and we will probably go to Norcia in Umbria," the coach told the press.
"My players have never held back, but if we want to work with serenity then this may be an option. If it was down to me I would never go into ritiro, but it could be a solution at certain times."
Lazio are just a point off the relegation zone, and their poor form caused protests earlier this week, when ultras tried to storm the training ground.
"We deserve the protests as I have to do my job right. If someone thinks that I am not doing it then it's right for them to protest," concluded the coach.
