Piero received the coaching certificate! Capello: He performed well, low-key and professional no matter what he did

May 23rd News Recently, Juventus legend Piero recently obtained a UEFA professional coach license. Italian coach Capello talked about some of his suggestions in an interview. Capello coached Piero's Juventus from 2004 to 2006, and fifteen players in that team have begun their coaching careers, such as two coaches in the current Serie A, Tudor and Vieira.

"I'm happy to think that the kids at that time learned something from me, just like I learned from my coach."

Are you also expecting Piero to bring his teachings to future coaching jobs? "Well, there was a time when Piero didn't get much chance to play under me. But as a great professional player, he always went all out, although he might not agree with my decision. If he sat in the coach's seat one day, he would realize what it means to make an unpopular decision."

Imagine Piero's field on the coach's seat Jing

"We had a very good offensive line at that time: Ibrahimovic, Trezege, and Mutu... And Mutu's recovery was the most important time in my career as a coach. He had not trained for six months when he joined, and he almost couldn't even play football..."

Back to Piero's topic, twenty years ago, would you think he would become a coach?

"Yes, because he has always been very smart. Of course, he has a very personality, speaks very well in English, and he is not an impatient person. After retirement, he did not immediately devote himself to a new career, but became an advertising endorsement and became a commentator. No matter what he did, he always performed well, low-key and Professional. ”

What advice do you have for Piero's upcoming new adventure? "Don't rush to achieve success, don't skip the steps, maybe you can start with youth training and then gradually rise. Take Pirlo as an example. It was originally planned to let him coach Juventus U23 first, which was the right path. But later he was promoted directly to the first team, and despite winning two trophies, he left. "

" However, coaching is a profession that takes time to learn and accumulate experience. Players, even champions, are used to thinking about 'me' at the center; and as a coach, you have to think only 'we'." ”

Have you had the chance to tell him this? "To be honest, I met Alessandro on the train two days ago (laughs), and we chatted for a while..."

When news of Piero's coaching license came out, many Juventus fans had begun to dream of seeing him sitting on the team's coaching seat one day. "I understand this attraction, but I said not to rush to achieve success, that is, to avoid surrendering to temptation too early. A coach needs time to cultivate himself and gradually build a reliable and high-level team. There is also a suggestion here: don't be surrounded by people who are 'following by orders', but to work with valuable, thoughtful collaborators."

Some people believe that to be a great coach, you must first be a midfielder. Look at Guardiola or Conte, but Piero is a No. 10 player and later as a second striker...

"This is a sentence I said a long time ago and has been quoted by others (laughs). Of course, playing in the midfield does help develop tactical awareness, because this position requires you to read more deeply on the court. But it just means that Piero may need to adjust his perspective a little on the coach's bench. He is smart, maybe it only takes a little more time, but I believe he can do it."
