Marco Parolo on DAZN: Comments on Baroni’s arrival at Lazio
From the microphones of Notizie.com, Marco Parolo, former Lazio midfielder now commentator for DAZN, discussed the arrival of Marco Baroni at the helm of the Biancoceleste club. Parolo offered a detailed overview of the current situation, comparing Baroni’s arrival with his previous experiences within the club.
The arrival at Lazio in 2014
In the summer of 2014, Lazio found themselves having to replace Reja, choosing Stefano Pioli as their new coach. During that time, the club acquired Marco Parolo from Parma and Dusan Basta from Udinese. “It didn’t take long for Dusan and I to understand where we were,” Parolo recalled. “We had the right experience to build a new path with the coach right from the start.” However, he also noticed that other players, from different leagues and backgrounds, initially struggled to settle in.
The Lazio transfer market
Parolo carefully commented on Lazio’s current transfer moves. He noted how the club is following players like Tchaouna, Noslin and Samardzic, defining them as promising choices. “It seems like a good path to me,” he said. Parolo then made a comparison with the summer of 2016, when Inzaghi was in command. “Inzaghi had the strength of knowing the environment perfectly,” he underlined, adding that this in-depth knowledge of the club, the people and the internal dynamics was his great strength.
Pioli, Inzaghi and Baroni: Comparisons and Considerations
Speaking about the differences between Lazio’s recent coaches, Parolo stated that the current situation cannot be directly compared to that of the past. “Baroni is not a young and emerging coach, like Inzaghi was,” he explained. Parolo sees many more similarities between the arrival of Pioli and that of Baroni. Both came from different experiences and found in Lazio an environment with high ambitions. Inzaghi, for his part, was a young coach on the launch pad who used his internal knowledge of the club to achieve important goals. “He knew how to manage great and allowed us to open and close a winning project,” concluded Parolo.
