Gasperini: “They are ruining my game. I am a coach who copies. Napoli? I thought about it”

What kind of coach is he? Gian Piero Gasperini? “A copyist. I observe, I take notes, then maybe I don’t repeat, but I pay attention to everything and everyone”. The coach who won the Europa League with theAtalanta he told his story to the microphones of Sports Courier. Gasp, among other things, focused on his relationship with the referees but in general on the rules and the possible changes to be made: “We don’t understand anything about contacts and handballs anymore. Too many different interpretations and notable differences between the national and international fields. In Serie A and in the cups, two different sports are played. Take the European Championship, the VAR has intervened very few times, while here it referees often. The decisions of the VAR must be regulated once and for all. Wait, another thing that drives me crazy is simulation”.

Gasperini confessed that he had thought about leaving Atalanta, tempted by Napoli: “I thought about it, yes. There were some moments in the season when I thought it was time to leave Atalanta. But I wanted to leave it well, without controversy, without disappointment. We won and in the end Bergamo prevailed, its people and everything it brings with it. Conte is in Naples now, the fans can’t feel sorry”.
