Ze Mariaformer player of various clubs in Serie A, including Inter and Parma, spoke to Radio FirenzeViolacommenting on the performances of his compatriot Dodo with the Fiorentina shirt: “I like Dodo a lot, since he arrived at Fiorentina I’ve always liked him. He’s a right back who defends little and attacks a lot like the old Brazilian full backs. Compare him to the old ones. phenomena is tough but he knows how to attack, he has a polite foot, he always tries to attack without staying behind. He’s like all of us Brazilian full-backs, we learned to defend after arriving in Italy.”
Is Dodo better outside 4 or 5?
“Better at 4 because he needs coverage because at 5 he would have to cover the entire flank on his own. If he has a tall winger with whom he can overlap he can hurt the opposing team. Having freedom without the obligation to return quickly can actually hurt” .
Judgment on Italiano positive only if he wins the Conference League?
“Italiano has been doing really well for two years, on three fronts, well in the Cup and then trying to go all the way in Europe. Fiorentina is growing and maintaining a high level. You can win or lose in the final but getting there is already a great achievement “.
