Sampdoria chief Carlo Osti has warned they're not yet playing at full throttle.
Samp currently sit fourth in the standings, despite only the one win from their last six matches.
"Sampdoria this year have a very balanced team, we always look towards goal, and it was too bad that on Sunday at Cesena we lacked a bit of lucidity," said Osti.
"But, we cannot complain about our position in the table. The departments are solid, we defend well and counter-attack well. Let's say that this year we have begun on the right foot."
