“Calafiori’s outburst on Blessin? He had that reaction because Blessin humiliated him at Genoa with jokes in English and he suffered from it.” This was said by Federico Marchettiformer Genoa goalkeeper, who spoke to Radio Series A about the relationship that the defender, taken from Arsenal for 50 million euros, had with his former coach. “I’m happy that he got his revenge. He just needed to find the pitch again, you could see that he was a strong player. These are qualities that you can perceive in training.”
These are Calafiori’s words to Sportweek.
“De Rossi? When I was an injured baby he took me home, waited for me, picked me up. And Totti. Thiago taught me things about football that I didn’t know. With Mourinho I started off quite well, then there was the match against Bodo in which we lost 6-1: from there things went downhill. I started watching from the bench, the choices went to others but my need and desire were to play. It was his choice, of course, but I’ll also tell you something: Mou and I keep in touch, he’s written me several messages, there’s a good relationship between us”.
Who would you send a nice liberating “fuck you” to?“To a coach I had at Genoa, Blessin. I worked hard, I trained hard. I didn’t accept the teasing, I didn’t like it.”
