Genoa coach Davide Ballardini is enjoying their form revival.

The Grifone have enjoyed an excellent week in Serie A, winning the Derby della Lanterna and then coming back from 3-0 down to beat Roma 4-3.

"I am made this way," Ballardini told La Gazzetta dello Sport. "I should be less of an unsociable bear, but it's difficult to transform myself.

"How can I complain when I have such a privileged job and I work for a club like Genoa with a great stadium and great fans? They are extraordinarily strong emotions.

"I can only be grateful to those people who have given me the opportunity to coach in Serie A. I want to show my work, but without a hurry."
