The historical conductor of Sky’s voice: “Models? I liked Ameri. Bergomi and I are brothers. For my 25 years of marriage next to the cake for me and Benedetta (Parodi, ed) there was a smaller one for the 25 years with Beppe”
Fabio Caressa enjoys the last days of vacation before the departure of a new football season that will still see him protagonist of the wide range of Sky, between Serie A and European competitions.
How is it preparing?
“In the summer, basically I rest, with an eye to the friendlies to understand how the teams will play and what development the season can have. I must say that this year it seems to me all very confused … there has also been Lukaku’s injury, it is impossible to do a starting grid, there are too many things to do on the market. The Napoli so far is the team that has moved better, but Juve and Inter must be completed, while I get the change of position.”
Also intrigued by some coach?
“The wait is there, since they have changed almost all of them. Allegri at Milan has a great desire to start again, the after Inzaghi for Inter, despite Chivu is good, remains a great question mark, Gasperini to Rome is another thing to evaluate, Sarri with Lazio has a complete squad from the first day of retreat and for one who like him works so much on the mechanisms is important: I expect a strong departure”.
“The difference between the Italians and many foreign clubs is there and unfortunately it continues to increase. They have other budgets and this gap can only be tactically filled. But I always have confidence in the ability of our teams in the most difficult moments”.
Does it also apply to the national team?
“Italy must cling to what can give her rino as a compactness, which had been a little lost. But the situation is not easy at all. Gattuso in my opinion can restore emotion to the national team and we did the best things just when we managed to touch certain ropes. On this Rino is the right man”.
What idea did Donnarumma have been made?
“I have always defended him because I believe he is the strongest goalkeeper in the world, but certain life choices also lead to a certain life path. I explain to myself: if you make economic choices, such as that of going to PSG and not staying at Milan, the same will be able to make the clubs that have purchased you. From this point of view we cannot talk about feelings … many players move in a merely economic direction, without thinking about being enriched. The young people understand that in this way they jeopardize their happiness.
Caressa, we come to her. Was it the classic child who imitated Bruno Pizzul?
“To tell the truth, I preferred ami … I made the first telecroners during the challenges in Subbuteo between my brother Maurizio and my best friend Pietro. Then in 1986 I followed a course with Michele Plastino, Roman sports journalist, and I started to do seriously. First Cesena-Lazio B series of Serie B in 1987, first commentary on a Leeds race in 1991. In the end I made 5 World Championships, one won, 4 Europeans with another victory, many Champions League finals and the Europa League, the most beautiful games of the golden years of Italian football and the Olympics.
The three telechronache of the heart?
“Obviously Italy-Germany 2006, Italy-England ending of the post Covid European European and then Liverpool-Borusia Dortmund, quarter of the Europa League 2016 with the Reds that come from 1-3 to 4-3, epic game”.
Do you know that the boys use his “let’s go to Berlin Beppe” on any occasion of exultation?
“Yes, my son tells me too: if the classmates are good for a question a” let’s go to Berlin Beppe “. It makes me smile. I am not one who looks back, but it obviously makes a great pleasure. I think it is also the result of the work I did on the lexicon, because the way of talking about it, and consequently of doing commentary, changes quickly and it is necessary to be open to renewal, reading a lot and not neglecting revolutions as the social do not neglect. They also impact our vocabulary ”.
Difficult moments to manage?
“Certainly the Lazio-Rome derby interrupted in 2004: the rumor that there was the dead because of a police car, there was a strong pressure because Bergomi and I said it on the commentary but we kept hard: on certain things, without an official declaration, you have to shut up. There, as always happens to Sky, we teamed and I think it was also recently seen after Bove’s illness”.
There is obviously Bergomi in the team.
“We are brothers. For my 25 years of marriage next to the cake for me and Benedetta (Parodi, ed) there was a smaller one for the 25 years with Beppe. Even if you don’t see each other often, we are in total symbiosis, an old couple at Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. He is perhaps the person who knows more than my life ever”.
Now what awaits it?
“A lot of football on Sky starting from the double appointment with the club that in the first two days is aired both on Saturday and Sunday, then the Champions League telechronache will arrive. On 8 December on Netflix the love comes out is blind in which for the first time I will work with my wife and I really hope, but I think so, that the second season of Money Road on Sky arrives. For me they are all enrichments, useful contaminations in everything. Never stop learning. “
