“Cosenza, Viali’s new project”, headlines the Southern Gazette.
The rossoblù coach can start thinking about rebuilding another year.
The summer months will define the appearance of the next Cosenza. William Viali’s tactical project will start from what the summer transfer market says. For the first time, however, the coach from Vaprio d’Adda will be at the reins of the Sila team from the start. In fact, his first two terms at the helm of the rossoblù were limited.
In the first case he took over the task from Davide Dionigi, who was sacked in November, in the second he only took a seat on the bench in March in place of Fabio Caserta, who was relieved of his duties in March. Now, the opportunity presents itself for the coach to influence transfer moves for the second time. He only did it in January 2023 when with Roberto Gemmi he orchestrated the tactical choices necessary to reverse the dramatic situation since then (the Wolves fell to last place in the rankings after the boxing day match played in Cagliari).
The coach will be able to influence the market dynamics by immediately thinking about his Cosenza 3.0. Starting again with the Neapolitan sporting director would be very useful for two main reasons: the two have established an important relationship of respect, as the coach himself underlined in a recent press conference, and also because they already have previous joint work, which would help to understand each other 100% without misunderstandings, misunderstandings and other types of obstacles. On the Viali-Gemmi combination, however, the last word belongs to Eugenio Guarascio, who at the moment has not “summoned” the sporting director to talk about upcoming projects.
Tactical evaluations. One of the main decisions regarding tactical organization will concern defense. The coach, who showed up on the banks of the Crati with the intention of using the four-man defense as one of his strong points, called everything into question during the last part of this season. The move to a back line made up of three men allowed him to regain certainty in his own penalty area, despite having always stated that the need to change was imposed due to the attempt to fill the opponents’ sixteen meters with a greater number of men . The one concerning the gaming system, therefore, will be one of the first topics that will arise between June and July when attention will focus first on market movements and subsequently also on the pitch […].
