Luciano Spalletti leaves after the flop to the European Championships, but the greatest responsibilities fall on Gabriele Gravina. After years of errors and missing steps back, the FIGC president remains in his place. And the future of Italy remains wrapped in uncertainty.
They tell us that Spalletti has claimed to present himself in front of journalists To announce his exemption, but since modern football exists, the coach does not have that task. Knowing Luciano imagine his suffering of these days, which is then every day because Spalletti al Calcio dedicates all of himself, we can discuss methods and attitudes, and to the blue shirt he also dedicated something more.
Perhaps the big mistake was precisely that of wanting to overdo it, but the reason is that a huge responsibility felt on his shoulders and when he understood that his football was not understood, he took unknown roads that led him to the abyss. It remains a great coach and on this there is no discussion, just speak with the players who trained in his long career. But the profession of the technical commissioner is another thing, Spalletti did not understand it and Gravina even less than him.
But precisely because the national team is not a club, where there is a president who puts money and can do what he wants theIn Gravina’s position it seems to us at least as much as that of the CT who exonerated. It is not a question of going to look for the faults of a football system that still has no longer been working in Italy for a while at all levels, but from the opportunity to get aside after a football failure. But Gravina does not obviously feel responsible for anything and this is even more serious because he has held the same behavior when Roberto Mancini failed to qualify for the World Cup in Qatar.
That day Gravina and Mancini had to leave their place and instead went on in a relationship that seemed stained and that instead crumbled in August two years ago when the handful had the unhappy idea of going to lead the national team of Saudi Arabia. Now the real problem to ask is the level of professionalism we are talking about: Mancini has made a mistake and has only understood it for a few days affirming that it would never redo it again. Admitting that you have made an error is a great sign of intelligence. On the other hand, Gravina persevere in error: he had to leave Mancini together with Mancini after the failure to qualify for the World Cup, he had to do it together on Spalletti after the fool with Switzerland at the Europeans, he does not even do it now when Spalletti exonerates in the meantime that Norway is stronger than Italy. A nice way to trust the Azzurri who go to the field. Spalletti’s successor will not be very important, that’s not the point why the situation has really been made here … “Gravina”.
