Barzali: Naples has a coach who rarely makes mistakes. The defender grows after making mistakes.

Juventus legend Barzali is serving as an assistant coach for the Italian U21 national team. He sat in the coach's podium for the first time in his match against Montenegro U21 last Friday. In an interview, the former Italian international talked about how he felt about docking in a new role.

How to experience this new character?

"I'm very involved because the game will touch your emotions. You want to stay calm and rational, but it's not easy. Everything is new to me, and although I know something about this scenario as a player, it's a completely different experience as a coach."

How to get this opportunity?

"This is an invitation from the Football Association. They asked me if I would like to start a new journey, which I found very attractive. Since I have no relevant experience, joining this team is necessary for me."

When I retired, I said that I would choose to do what I like

"I have been away from football for a few years and want to challenge myself to see if I can play the role of a coach. I don't think I am currently able to take on this job alone because I don't have enough knowledge. But so far, this role has brought me many wonderful and fulfilling experiences."

How do you think of many veterans over 30 years old joining Serie A?

"This is not surprising to me. The club may need some experienced veterans who can enhance the spirit of the team to stabilize the morale of the military. What really surprised me is that many young players do not get enough opportunities to play. This question should ask themselves whether they have enough desire to fight for a position."

How to evaluate Serie A champion Naples?

"It can be said that they have a head coach who rarely makes mistakes."

Italy beat Estonia 5-0 "It was a confident and highly motivated Italy. The players gave a strong response, and I think Gattuso would be satisfied with it."

In the U21 national team, is Marianaucci possible to be the next Barzali?

"Our central defenders have great potential, reasonable structure, and concentration. Marianaucci has a calm performance on the court and has good skills at the feet. In addition, there are several talented young men such as Chiarodia." What valuable experience can Barzali bring to the young defenders?

"Unfortunately, defenders often grow after making mistakes. When you realize your mistakes and avoid repeating them, you get better. The ability to read games can only be accumulated through actual combat, so it is very important to participate in more games. Italy has always produced excellent defenders, and even those who performed well at a young age will become better as they grow experience."
