The former all-around coach, both at the club and national levels, spoke to the microphones of Radio Anch’io Sport.
Mancini? He made a very serious mistake. He accused the federal president when it would have been simpler to say, ‘I received an offer I couldn’t refuse.'” This is what Fabio Capello had to say in a comprehensive interview with Radio Anch’Io Sport on Radio 1.
He started with Roberto Mancini‘s decision to leave the national team. Then, he discussed the early days of the league, where Capello sees a favorite for the Serie A title: “I would bet on Inter.”
While criticizing Mancini (“He tried to find excuses, saying he didn’t feel the trust”), Capello applauded the decision to appoint Luciano Spalletti as the national team coach: “We needed someone a bit crazy, and he was a bit crazy to accept the job immediately. I think it was a great choice by Gravina.”
Who will win the Serie A?—Inter will win it, followed by Milan. These are the two best teams in the league according to the former coach.
“The Nerazzurri are a great team, confident in their abilities. Milan, on the other hand, is a surprise: They have quality and strength, and they seem much more cohesive.”
Juventus is lagging behind: It’s still a bit of a hybrid. This team lacks some personality and quality.
Napoli? They don’t play like they did last year. It seems they’ve lost that determination they had.”
Struggling in this early season is Roma: “It’s surprising that they’re conceding so many goals, partly due to the absence of a player, Matic. He always positioned himself correctly.
Can Lukaku be like Batistuta? Batistuta was a different player. There’s no comparison”
