Antonioli: It's all in our heads
Thursday 6 November, 2008

Bologna goalkeeper Francesco Antonioli claims the Felsinei's problems are mental as Sinisa Mihajlovic takes the reins.

The Emilia-Romagna outfit have been on a downward slope since an opening-day win over Milan.

Last weekend's humiliating defeat against Cagliari cost Daniele Arrigoni his job, but Antonioli feels the problem is psychological, rather than technical.

“The problem is that we are making mistakes on the ball that we could easily avoid and that shows that it is a mental issue,” Antonioli explained.

“Looking at the games we have played so far, when our heads are fine we can compete with anyone.

“We showed that in the second half against Juventus and for the whole game against Lazio and Milan.

“Technically we are fine and we just need to restore some self-confidence - we shouldn't let certain situations get us down.”
