The legendary Italian coach Fabio Capello once again spoke without reservation about the state of the Italian football team and the messages are not at all optimistic.
Capello believes that the defeat and bad game against Bosnia and Herzegovina is not an exception, but a realistic picture of the situation in the representation, transmits Klix.
Unfortunately, Italian football is what we saw in Zenica. It is enough to look at the Champions League, that’s where you can see the real level. And the answer is clear.
He adds that he is alarmingly, Italy failed to qualify not even with the expanded format of the World Cup.
Three consecutive failures means yes the disease is not cured.
Unlike many who emphasize the physical or mental component, Capello is clear, the problem is technical.
Dzeko: There were those who challenged us, behind all this is enormous work and sacrifice
Here you can walk or run lightly. In other countries it is sprinting. Passing speed, ball control, we do it too slowly for the international level.
In other words, the national team is a mirror of Serie A. Capello especially criticizes work with young people.
The biggest problem is in the youth categories. Children of 12 years old make actions, it is wrong. First they have to learn the technique.
He emphasizes that there is a lack of real football coaches.
You can’t learn if you don’t know how to play. The coach must show how to shoot, pass, head.
He cites as an example of better practice the football team of Spain.
There, children play all the time in schools. They have a technique culture like rondo. That is the basis. In our country it is considered a waste of time.
Can Italy make a comeback? Capello does not offer a simple solution.
A new coach can do little. He has to be lucky to find the right group and fit it. It’s true, the quality is lacking.
