Danilo Pagni, expert manager, record holder in all categories, protagonist of various football exploits and talent scouts, spoke to TuttoC.com to comment on the hot topics of Serie C, starting with the three promoted teams:
Cesena dominated Group B.
“A home-grown team, which won with 4/5 under from the academy, chapeau. They came from Primavera 2, after a relegation from Primavera 1. They had playing time and demonstrated quality of play and mentality. A round of applause to Toscano and his staff “.
When Stiven scored in bursts she turned her attention to Cristian, who was underestimated at the time.
“This year, in fact, the series has delighted everyone: many often only see the obvious things.”
Mantua instead?
“They have subverted the theory of spending and squandering, contrasting that of ideas and it is no coincidence. I met director Botturi in Brescia in the youth sector, when I told him about my children’s transfer for work and family reasons he thought I was joking. Yes he saw that he had another step. Obviously congratulations also to Possanzini.”
An expected return to Serie B also for Juve Stabia. As a consultant in Castellammare you won two championships.
“Yes, with Paolo D’Arco, Franco Giglio and Manniello respectively. There is also a Serie D championship. Braglia didn’t want to accept, annoying me. During the match in Cosenza away from home I told Amodio and Giglio to take Morris Molinari immediately, author of the historic goal of the promotion. We only need to make a monument to the current managers and staff, I hope to confirm.”
He knows some of the Vespa protagonists well.
“I brought Thiam and Mignanelli to Viterbo in January, we won the Italian Cup beating Berlusconi’s Monza and we climbed from third to last place to the playoffs. On the pitch we had young people like Zerbin from Napoli and Damiani, now at Juventus”.
The disappointments of this tournament?
“I don’t like to highlight negativity, but it’s clear that in some places more could and should have been done.”
And what about the surprise?
“The revelation for me is Sorrento. A noble club and club, with many debutants and a limited budget. They have always played on a neutral pitch. The creator is Mr. Maiuri, who replied after the masterpiece of the victory in Serie D. I tell the professionals to take advantage of this and give credit to a valuable technician.”
Back to insights, who to keep an eye on for the future?
“I prefer not to name names, I became very jealous.”
Are there any career choices you regret?
“With hindsight, I could say that sometimes I could have chosen different destinations or stayed where I was doing very well. But what matters are the business and sporting results that I have achieved, the result of a full-time job and love. and my friends and collaborators continue to monitor. A few months ago before the restriction placed on me by Nocerina, I was returning to Serie B, we were very close, in the more than preliminary phase which then did not materialize”.
It has had important, wealthy presidents with very strong personalities. How to stand up to him?
“Always winning (laughs, ed.). By reporting and through hard work.”
For his part, a comment on Taranto cannot be missed.
“I’m pleased that the fans, club and team have come together again. Common sense must prevail on the stadium case. Capuano is doing very well, he’s objective, he also expresses good football. Hats off to the club for the sale of Antonini to Catanzaro, Eziolino ‘he won, the only drawbacks being the lack of playing time and the penalty, even though it’s an open game.”
Do you have any regrets about not accepting the job some time ago?
“The ifs and buts are full, the great affection of the people of Taranto is enough for me.”
A comment on the technicians, let’s start with Calabro, who reversed the trend at Carrarese.
“I see Antonio as more and more eclectic, when he takes over he always has an incisive impact, he always questions himself and this is another of his strong points.”
Gaetano Auteri, a coach dear to her, is back on track.
“Yes, we won a lot together, expressing sometimes overwhelming football. I gave the teams to him and he had fun. If Gaetano wins he is the strongest, if he loses they say he has arrived. Cliches of indifferent people.”
And Mister Modica in Messina?
“He has shown that he makes the team play with proactive football, with the right precautions and preventative measures. He is doing very well.”
One last comment: the fourth promoted to B?
“Taranto”.
