With heart and soul, the Venice managed to win the playoffs, beating Cremonese and returning to Serie A two years after relegation. The great architect of this success is Mister Paolo Vanoli, who led the team to an incredible promotion. This is his comment, collected by TuttoMercatoWeb.com: “It was a masterpiece from the guys who deserved it. From start to finish. I want to thank the club that gave me my first opportunity in the professionals. Plus I think it’s great thanks to the people of Venice. We must enjoy this moment.”
Who left you something more, Parma than the three trophies or Antonio Conte?
“Parma gave me a lot and I gave a lot. Once I stopped I was lucky enough to meet Sacchi in the youth sector of the national team and then Conte who gave me the opportunity to see important clubs like Chelsea and Inter. He made me understand how can you manage a company to create a winning mentality beyond. All these people leave an influence on you, which then over time is amplified by the personality.”
When did you start believing in the dream?
“I was convinced that I would take the Spezia match home. I believed that something could have happened in Como, but at that moment it made us understand that we could do it anyway. We faced the playoffs in a stratospheric way. Overcoming two teams like Cremonese and Palermo who could aspire to Serie A. After the match in Spezia we were good at breaking away and starting again. This allowed us to approach the playoffs in the right way. After Spezia I asked the boys if they could explain to me why and in the end I explained to them I. That is, they didn’t believe as much as I did. The boys understood. Before the playoffs I then took the defenders and told them that to win we would need four super performances from them. Because in Italy you win with top defences level”.
