Maurizio Sarri, the manager of Lazio, is enraged ahead of the Celtic clash.

As Lazio prepares to face Celtic in the forthcoming Champions League match, manager Maurizio Sarri expresses his discontent, on edge owing to UEFA’s schedule and accusing his players of being taken to the “slaughterhouse.”

The team, whom Celtic has beaten at home and away in recent years, travels to Glasgow as part of a grueling schedule, hoping to build on their recent draw with Atletico Madrid.

Lazio were defeated 2-0 by AC milan on saturday, their fourth Serie A defeat of the season.

 

Sarri criticizes the present schedule ahead of the critical Scotland trip, admitting he’s unsure which players will be available due to injuries exacerbated by the fixture congestion.

He vented his rage by saying: [RecordSport]

“I am furiously p***** off at UEFA, FIFA, Serie A, and the rest of this gang for this insane calendar.”

 

“They’re sending these guys to the slaughterhouse with no one to stop them.” Football nowadays is like this: take the money and flee. However, there is less of it today, and it will only be available to perhaps 30, 40, or 50 players.

“I have never seen a schedule like this in all my years of football.” They forced us to play three consecutive away games at Napoli and Juventus.
