After Ranieri’s no, Gravina evaluates some “world” profiles from 2006: Ringhio, Cannavaro and De Rossi. Mancini in the background
From 2006 to 2026. Conquering the World Cup twenty years after the cup would be the most wonderful coincidences. From 2006 to 2026. Calcistically a life, all children of Marcello Lippi, then raised in a football that runs at a speed unknown to the teacher. Fabio Cannavaro, Rino Gattuso and Daniele De Rossi, three leaders of Berlin, today coaches. All with the right identikit. Cannavaro the captain of the champions and the unsurpassed defender, Gattuso the soul of reinforced concrete, De Rossi the young man torn from the under 21 with the very cold blood in the penalty of the final. One will be the successor of Ranieri, Pardon, Spalletti. At the moment Rino Gattuso is in the lead, in the last few hours the detachment seems to be increased. Mancini remains in the background. Unless new limelights …
The scenario
–
The sensations on Gattuso in front of everyone are looking for confirmation. Within twenty -four hours the President Gravina will soon choose who to focus on. Yesterday the number of candidates was restricted to those three. The priorities are: personality, ideas, contractual situation. Meanwhile, the chosen one must have charisma, capacity, curriculum, image. Second thing: the times are very narrow, you cannot do poetry but a lot of prose. So the new CT will not ask to teach football, but to deploy a furious, aggressive team, with the blue soul inside. The blues of June appeared tired but above all discharges mentally and demotivated. Last, but not least, the status: Gattuso is free, Cannavaro is free, De Rossi has a contract with Roma but it is not a problem.
Gattuso
–
A growl for the national team. Di Gattuso likes the warrior character, the one missed to the last Italy that did not abound in technique and would have at least needed grit. Rino was not a 10, but he combined his overflowing physical strength with a generosity at the limits of the human. Of the three is also the one who trained important clubs: Milan, Naples (with which he won an Italian Cup), Seville, Marseille, finally the Hajduk. The football of his teams is much more studied than you think: in Naples he takes the place of Ancelotti and gives a soul as well as a game labeled as “Ringhism”, the most playful evolution of the “Cholism” of Simeone. Compact, aggressive teams, with good circulation of the ball. The 4-2-3-1 is the most recent reference tactical system, but Gattuso also played with 4-3-3 and with the defense in three. In his football, the system does not come to the first place. “Grint and heart are the ABC of football. Without desire, without a soul you cannot play,” he says, explaining that he has become another after the experience in Spain: pressing, verticalization, more technical.
Cannavaro
–
A speech that is also fine for Cannavaro, more scientific perhaps in the tactical construction of a team. If Gattuso is the warrior, Cannavaro is the captain and the symbol of world Italy, the one that raises the cup. As an image we are also in his case and in abundance. A little arranged Fabio when they tell him that he only guided Benevento and Udinese, underestimating experiences in Dubai, in a Saudi Arabia Ante Litteram (the Al Nassr today of Pioli and Ronaldo), the Tianjin and the Guangzhou in China (champion), also the Chinese national team, and lastly the Dinamo Zagreb. With Lippi the relationship was privileged, it was he who wanted it in China, and from Lippi took elasticity. The reference tactical systems are 4-3-3, in which often set to three, and the 3-4-3. “In my football, the possession does not count, but the intensity. The one of which Klopp speaks: rock and roll, vertical, back and forth. You think of me defender, but I want an attack, aggressive. My players explain: always better a ride forward than one behind”.
De Rossi
–
He found himself without a team after a few days, Roma preferred to Juric: then he went well with Ranieri, but De Rossi deserved more patience. For him Lippi broke the unwritten rule that an under 21 remained among young people: he was too strong for not having him among the greats. They say it’s a predestined. He was in Mancini’s staff and, after the experience in Spal, here is his Rome, a Giallorossi symbol after Totti. It has been seen that De Rossi is not a common coach: he alternated several systems, the favorite one is 4-2-3-1 but in Rome the 3-4-2-1 has also been seen. One of the keys were the movements of the band and of the area that surprised the rivals, see the quarterfinals of the Europa League against Milan. So much variety and a lot of character and charisma. «I am influenced by Spalletti, Luis Enrique and Conte, obsessed with victory. I would just like Roma, at the end of our journey, was recognizable as a game identity ».
