I don't doubt Tudor's professionalism. It's just a further departure from the team's identity. The guy is known to play 3-man backline with counterattacking. Not exactly a logical successor. He's only coming in because he's the best available (at current budgets)
The reason Totti gave the 4 fingers sign when Roma beat Juve 4-0 was because Tudor gave him an elbow basically leaving his shoulder paralyzed for an entire match...
Tudor had a good attacking system at Galatasaray with 4-3-3. He had Gomis at the front which is similar to osimhen for high pressing especially. Those players were pressing like there is no tomorrow. I hope we can see that type of Tudor not “JUVE-TYPE”.
"Recent reports from Sky Sport Italia indicate that Napoli have offered Igor Tudor a one-year contract to replace Rudi Garcia at the Stadio Maradona. "
Can't wait for the upper part of the suit being taken off and thrown towards the assistant coach. Something I have not seen for a long time. Feels nostalgic. Back in those days I was a good boy, straight edge, full of healthy ideals and ideas. What an illusion that was, but I'll be damned if I did not give one kidney and a finger to be able to enter it again, albeit for a short while only. Welcome back, Walter, long time no see. Seems like Rudi's last words to the squad were: “It’s not your fault, it’s only mine, this defeat and this situation.” I may not agree, but it was a nice thing to say. I hope the players will realize how untrue that is, feel ashamed, and improve. If players like Kvara want to rise to the top, they have to be decisive, games like Empoli should basically be won by them. They did that for Spal, but of course, when things are going well, we will be more than glad to credit it to the coach, without any semblance of an analysis.
TIFO had an analysis about the increase in points from firing your coach that I saw recently. Will any amount of improvement be enough to renew Mazzarri in June, or are we definitely going to see Conte or Italiano?
Unless we fight for the scudetto till the end, I can’t imagine Mazzarri stays. He wanted the new manager to sign a short one because he probably has his eyes on someone else. Many people speculate Italiano
So according to the papers: - Tudor wanted a longer deal and refused the 8 month contract - ADL does not want to be tied down to one manager. I assume he has his eyes on someone else for the summer - Mazzari agreed to coach the team till June - Mazzarri also told ADL he will stick with Napoli’s 4-3-3 - Ex Napoli players Claudio Bellucci and Toto Aronica join his staff
Juve are still going to be tied to Allegri who will have another year on his contract. Unless they are willing to break it and take the 10 million hit. Italiano’s contract expires in June.
Doing the rounds on twitter and the usual idiot Napoli fans are celebrating the return of Walterone. We are going from one of the best playing sides in Europe (last year) to a team that will playing 11 behind the ball.
unbelievable, i truly thought i'd seen the end of Walter Mazzarri if its any consolation, im almost certain this man is definitely just a temporary solution until the summer.
