The deputy of the Salento coach: “Sometimes it’s funny to read certain things about him. He looks at the project. He has always left more mature and stronger teams with improved players.”
Cristian spoke to ‘Top Calcio’ Stars. As expected, his interview was a ‘commercial’ for Antonio With you, of which he has been deputy for several years. For the Salento technician the most concrete solution remains Napolieven if in the last few hours he has been brought back to the bench of Milan.
CONTE MAKES YOU SPEND A LOT – “If we are talking about the difficulty of management, I believe this is common to all important coaches. It is never easy to create synergies between the club and the coach. Conte is a transparent technician, he makes it clear if there is a problem. He is a very demanding coach who, however, has always achieved great results. I think it’s a lie that he asks for big purchases. He has always asked for ambitious projects, which doesn’t always mean expensive players. Who wouldn’t have taken someone like Lukaku… Then he was sold for double what he cost. Conte’s results speak for themselves.”
THE PROJECT COUNTS – “Would you still take a team that needs to be built? I do not believe
that there are limits, these are labels that are put. Sometimes it’s funny to read certain things about him. There are only interesting and ambitious projects, coaches who choose them or not. He looks at the project.”
LEAO – “It was said (by Ausilio, ed.) that at the time he was not taken by Inter for Conte. But at that moment if you took him, you didn’t take Lukaku. But no one has ever discarded Leao, perhaps with Conte he will make a leap as has happened with other players.”
YOUNG – “He has launched them since his first year at Arezzo. He put Ranocchia in Conte’s place, which he was
Captain. In Bari he launched Caputo who came from the Excellence. Kolarov, Vidal and Sanchez at Inter? Holes needed to be covered and they were on deadline. When you go to get a player at zero, it’s difficult to find a young player.”
CONTE’S FOOTBALL – “He went from 4-2-4 to 3-5-2 which was never defensive, but just a way to attack better. In recent months we have studied slightly different things about who we are
ready to do if there is the possibility.”
TRAUMATIC FAREWELLS WITH COMPANIES – “It’s a question to ask others. Sometimes I think we look at the finger instead of the moon. Let’s think about the team he left behind, more mature and stronger teams with
improved players.”
MILAN AND THE GAP WITH INTER – “If the Rossoneri one is the ideal project? I don’t know about this, I say that all the big teams can offer an important project to Conte. Milan is a strong team that must fill the gap from Inter, in Conte’s history these gaps have been filled. Conte wants to come back.”
