These are the words of the former World Champion coach in 2006 during the inauguration of a new sports center in Viareggio: “The championship will not be a two-way fight between Milan and Naples how it looks now. the I would also include Inter, the first two have done well so far, but I would not neglect the Nerazzurri. “ Could not miss a thought on Juventus and on the anomalous ranking position: “I don’t know, but they may have made some evaluations pointing to the Champions League. If that were the case, I think they would sign up to win it and also finish seventh in the championship. “ Parole positive per Stefano Pioli: “He impressed me for his work, he is at the top of the league with an exceptional start, he plays a good football in Milan, if anything, perhaps he is paying for his disaccustomed international football for seven years that he did not play in the Champions League. At the Italian level he is doing fine, he reminds me Carlo Ancelotti “. Also for Luciano Spalletti praise arrives: “He returned from a vacation after three years. I found him more reflective, open to dialogue, he is capable and competent. He proves that he has not forgotten this job”. Finally, a judgment on Dusan Vlahovic: “He is very good and has two p … and not indifferent to manage the uncommon situation in which he found himself, especially in Florence. He is showing seriousness, attachment to society. Someone is doing his interests, it is evident, then it will come out. In the meantime, he demonstrates technical qualities and character “.

Lippi: “Jorginho deserves the Golden Ball”
Marcello Lippi also spoke about the national team: “The draw with Switzerland is a result that when two strong teams play there can be and must be taken into account. Of course if you win, with the opportunity we had with the penalty kick, which was wrong, the practice was The possibilities are there for get to the World Cup. The team is strong, they are intelligent people, both the players and the coach. The qualification will come with a little more suffering “. A thought also on the penalty kick to Jorginho: “I am an ex, but in my career I have decided three times, twice it went well, once it was bad”, which for Lippi deserves the Golden Ball: “Even if he missed the penalty kick against Switzerland, he won in all competitions. There are sometimes great champions who have won little or nothing.” For Lippi the national team of di Mancini has no problems in attack: “The team is one step away from qualifying for the World Championships in Qatar and has just finished victory of the European. In the space of a season, you can’t have 100 percent players. The league could also propose a player who solves problems “.
