Maifredi: “Juventus, Motta’s football is modern. Milan, there is a lack of clarity”

To intervene live at Maracanatransmission of TMW Radioit was mister Gigi Maifredi.

How are Conte and Motta having an impact?
“Conte is in the lead but he won games he shouldn’t have won. On the other side there is a new game. Judging them now after 4 games is not ideal. Conte relies on an excellent defense and deadly counterattacks, the other wants to start from the bottom and is adopting a way of playing that relies a lot on the wings. And this can have a positive impact. Each will exploit their own characteristics in the next match”.

Juve stronger than Napoli?
“I think there is modernity in football. Today Motta’s football is modern, Conte plays good football but starts from different bases. Today you have to press high, something that is in Conte’s head but is not perhaps present in those who won the Scudetto on the field with Napoli. Today Juve’s squad is more competitive, but Conte is a winning coach. We’ll wait until the tenth matchday to make a judgment”.

Who has more “suits” between Juve and Napoli?
“I’m not very impressed by the pre-match statements, they are made ad hoc, the truth is not told publicly. Conte is carrying on a discussion to have more time to prepare the team. You mustn’t think about the year before, because you always start from scratch”.

Milan, if the coach were to change, would Allegri or Sarri be better?
“Sarri is capable of working on the pitch, but Allegri is at the same level as Conte and others in terms of experience. But there has been no clarity in Milan for years, they don’t know how to put a stop to these negative things. In the club, it’s not just the coach that counts. Not seeing the internal flaws is impossible. For years, Milan hasn’t been able to defend centrally with midfielders and I can’t understand not putting a stop to this situation. If I were the coach, I would have immediately taken three players in the middle of the pitch to remedy this, because they won the title with Tonali and Kessiè”.
