“Winning in Italy is difficult. There are many 0-0 and 1-0 matches. Here, teams try to nullify you by defending and pressing, not by attacking”: Cesc Fabregas against Serie A. Interviewed by The Athletic, the Como coach did not spare criticism of the playing style that prevails in our country, explaining what he believes would be necessary to improve to bring the championship back to the level of the main European leagues.
“I watch Bundesliga, La Liga, and Premier League matches – Fabregas continued -. Teams defend very, very differently compared to how they do in Italy. When you watch Premier League teams, you see a structure. You see what they are trying to do. You see the style they want to impose. Here, many times, it’s impossible to understand what’s happening. That’s why you need to pay a lot of attention to details.” This, the coach added, leads to a total absence of spectacular, beautiful-to-watch matches.

Speaking about his work in Como, the former Barcelona midfielder also explained how trust in the environment and in the players is the condition for getting the best out of them. “I know my boys at Como. And talent aside, I believe in them blindly and when a coach does that, he will always get the best out of them or do better than those who only play them because they have good data, but don’t trust the players or don’t know them. What I don’t understand is that sometimes clubs sign players without talking to the coach or without the coach studying and talking to the player. He is the one who has to make them play and improve.”

Despite his satisfaction with the work in Como, the coach nevertheless stressed that “we are very far from the football I have in mind, which is why we need to train a lot and have time to make mistakes. We all want to win, but patience and time are fundamental, and in football, they are not always there.”
