Sampdoria coach Walter Zenga has heaped praise on his squad by stating that they have moulded into a united group.

The Blucerchiati take on Bologna in Serie A on Sunday, and the team's boss has been quick to highlight his squad's togetherness ahead of the game.

"We have a big squad. That is the dream of every coach and when the players all reach the peak of their ability then both they and fans will have fun," said Zenga, according to La Gazzetta dello Sport.

"Having a deep squad is always nice. The players are a united group who help each other and have all they need to do well."

Sampdoria have so far collected four points from their opening two fixtures.
