Giampaolo previews Inter encounter

It hasn’t been an easy week for Sampdoria and Marco Giampaolo after last week’s defeat to Crotone and the boss made no attempt to deny it when he faced the media on Saturday.

“Criticism is part and parcel of the game,” he told reporters the day before Sampdoria v Inter. “You have to live with it and accept it. The only thing that annoys me is when people question your professionalism but at the end of the day we deserved to be criticised for our performance against Crotone, just as we did after Benevento.

“We might lose games from time to time – that’s ok, albeit annoying – but we must remember where we started out. We know we need to improve and I back my players – they’re as upset as myself and anyone about certain things.

“We have a strong work ethic here and we must learn from our mistakes.”
