Gasperini cools top four talk
Saturday 13 December, 2008

Genoa Coach Gian Piero Gasperini has warned his side not to get carried away ahead of the visit of Atalanta.

Inspired by Argentine hitman Diego Milito, the Grifone are flying high and are sitting pretty in sixth place.

After last weekend's derby triumph against Sampdoria, some Rossoblu fans are dreaming of Champions League football, but Gasperini is keeping his feet firmly on the ground.

“The derby win was a great source of satisfaction and we removed a weight from our shoulders with an important result in the League,” the Turin-born boss said.

“But it isn't right to look any further than that and certain targets that have been suggested are still far away.

“We just have to use the enthusiasm in the right way and remember that this is a very balanced championship.

“I will just be asking my players to arrive on Sunday ready to play Atalanta so they don't get a rude awakening.”
