Roberto De Zerbi was pleased with Albion’s performance as they eased past West Ham with a 4-0 victory at the Amex. But he believes his side can still improve.
Roberto De Zerbi said: “The second half was fantastic, very good the first half, but the perfection is not like this. I think we can improve, but we are in the right way. I am enjoying to work with these players, because they have the same passion as me to improve and work. I think we can achieve our target because we are strong and serious.”
Albion can break into the top four if they win all their games in hand on Tottenham Hotspur. However, the Italian is not targeting a specific position in the league.
Roberto De Zerbi said: “If you see the table, we can fight, it is not right if I speak about one place, but we are playing very well and we can try.”
The former Sassuolo manager was absent on the touchline today after he picked up a one match suspension following the defeat to Fulham. The Albion manager admitted he was itching to get back to the bench.
Roberto De Zerbi said: “Yes very different, I am sad for this. I want back my place on the bench. The stadium is very nice, my place was fantastic, but I prefer to stay on the pitch.”
