Parma, 17 August 2025- The statements from defender Emanuele Valeri, made at the end of the Parma vs. Pescara match in the first round of the Coppa Italia Frecciarossa.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n \u201cI believe we played a great game. There are just a few things we need to fine-tune in training so that we can be as sharp as possible against Juventus next week. Pescara didn\u2019t have a single shot on goal? That\u2019s a great sign for us because it gives us confidence heading into the league.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n Pellegrino? We coordinate our moves and passes effectively in training (crosses, editor\u2019s note) because he\u2019s very strong in the air, moves well inside the box, and I can deliver quality crosses to him. I\u2019m happy he scored those two goals because he\u2019s always looking to score, even in training.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n The shoe-shining celebration? It\u2019s just a celebration we do; we\u2019ll see if it makes a return during the league.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n My position? The coach asks me to play as a wing-back, and I\u2019m always ready to do whatever he asks, even if I have to play full-back, striker, or midfielder. Any role is fine as long as it helps the team.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n Does Parma play with a lot of forward runs? Our aim is the same as last year. Even last season, we had this approach under the coach. Maybe this year we\u2019ve refined it a little, but we always attack the space in numbers. When the chances come, we\u2019ll be able to score. Obviously, against Pescara it\u2019s a different kind of match compared to the one on Sunday, which we\u2019ll have to prepare for in a different way.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n The difference compared to previous years? I felt good both with Pecchia, whom I had known for a long time, and with Chivu, who came in mid-season and gave us a big hand; he understood us as a team. Cuesta is a different kind of coach. He asks different things of us, but he brings a lot of energy, he has a real desire to do well, and that\u2019s important with a young team. What matters most, of course, will be the results, but the approach is the right one.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n How\u2019s the team feeling? The training intensity is evaluated by the fitness coach, not me. We just do what we\u2019re told. The training camp was heavy, and that\u2019s how it should be, but now we\u2019ll start easing off a little.<\/em><\/p>\n <\/em><\/p>\n How are we doing? I thought we did well today…\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n ” data_box_twitch=”null” data_box_instagram=”null” data_box_tiktok=”null” data_box_twitter=”null” data_box_youtube=”null” data_box_facebook=”null” ][\/swp_base_p][\/swp_wrapper][\/swp_content]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" [swp_content page_og_title=”EMANUELE VALERI: \u201dON THE PITCH WITH THE RIGHT APPROACH\u201d” page_og_description=”null” page_og_type=”null” page_og_image=”https:\/\/www.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_ogs\/ACP_4538-20250817204334.webp” page_keywords=”null” page_description=”null” page_on_app=”1″ page_on_home=”1″ news_cover=”https:\/\/www.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_news\/ACP_4538-20250817204342.webp” news_exclude=”[]” news_include=”[]” news_include_continent=”[]” ][swp_wrapper id=”id” order=”1″ name=”blocco 1″ option_wrapper_color=”1″ option_wrapper_image=”1″ ][swp_hero_mini id=”0″ type=”hero_mini” order=”1″ name=”hero_mini” option_header_mini=”1″ option_component_anchor=”null” option_component_padding=”[]” data_hero_title=”EMANUELE VALERI: \u201cON THE PITCH WITH THE RIGHT APPROACH\u201d” data_hero_image=”https:\/\/www.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_heros\/ACP_4538-20250817204353.webp” data_hero_align_r=”1″ data_hero_align=”1″ data_hero_image_responsive=”https:\/\/www.parmacalcio1913.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/_heros\/ACP_4538-20250817204403.webp” data_icon_image_alt=”null” ][\/swp_hero_mini][swp_base_p id=”1″ type=”base_p” order=”2″ name=”base_p” […]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":11,"featured_media":0,"menu_order":0,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[46],"class_list":["post-63670","pr_news","type-pr_news","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-men-first-team","tag-prima-squadra-en"],"yoast_head":"\n
