Atalanta coach Gian Piero Gasperini says there's more to come after their 3-1 win against Lazio.

Charles De Ketelaere scored twice for the triumph.

Gasperini said: “We are going through a good period of form and have improved a great deal, but we still have margin for further improvement and there are things we need to fine-tune.

“Having beaten a strong side like Lazio with this style gives us enthusiasm and we think that we are on the right track.

“Undoubtedly, if you get results like this, you can challenge for the top spots in the table. We went close in the first half of the season, have now started strong and thanks to this win have also got a better head-to-head record with Lazio."

On De Ketelaere, he also said: “He found an environment where he feels comfortable and in the last few months has gained confidence exponentially. You just have to look at the way he converted that penalty, how he tries moves that are not simple. He loses the ball rarely and is starting to win it back too.

“We always knew De Ketelaere was a quality player, but he is now playing with confidence and becoming a real reference point for the squad. I can think of no better compliment for him."
