Genoa coach Alexander Blessin has discussed his pressing game with the Italian press.

Blessin has Genoa unbeaten since taking charge earlier this year.

“There are two options of pressing: you can either attack the ball straight away, or lead the opponent into a zone where you want to attack the ball," said Blessin.

“Why do lions hunt in packs? Because they surround their prey.

"If they were just to chase down the prey, then the prey could well be faster and escape."

Genoa have picked up one win after seven consecutive stalemates with Blessin on the bench, having taken over on January 19 after leaving Belgian side KV Oostende.
