TMW Radio

Talking about the topics of the day a TMW Radioduring Maracanawas the journalist and former footballer Stefano Impallomeni.

Juventus challenges Leipzig in the Champions League after the good performance of Genoa. Will Koopmeiners be the key man of this team?
“Motta has cleaned up this team in the head, the ball travels now, there is order, but now you have to combine competitiveness with winning. The players always make the difference, Juve needs players who understand the moments, who must understand when to raise their I expect that Motta will now be more of a footballer, closer to them and that he will give specific indications to some important elements. My doubts are about the men who can make the difference in the key moments.”

Fiorentina, team without identity. What do you think?
“Some coaches need a leap. Palladino’s last part in Monza was perhaps a sign. He is good but in my opinion the team is excellent, there is material to work on. A modern coach is no longer the bearer of a label as in the past”.

A thought on Castro: can he run Zirkzee’s route?
“I didn’t expect him to be so good. He scored amazing goals, he has great character, he knows how to carry the weight of the attack on his own. It’s a very pleasant surprise.”

Locatelli, Ricci, Rovella: who has more room for growth?
“I choose Ricci, who in my opinion is starting to feel too difficult for him in Turin. I would like to see him in another reality. Rovella has room for improvement, Locatelli doesn’t, because for better or for worse he is this.”

Which midfielder has impressed you the most in Serie A to date?
“Anguissa.”
