Former Verona Chairman: No one motivates the team like Uric, Tudor will count to ten before he speaks
Former Verona chairman Maurizio Seti was interviewed by Turin Sports and talked about Juventus coach Tudor. Seti said that it was he who recommended Tudor to enter Serie A back then.
Mr. Seti, you worked with Tudor for a year. What is the deepest thing left to you in this relationship?
"I always have special memories of Tudor. First of all: he is an extremely calm person. He knows how to enjoy life better than other coaches I have worked with. At the end of the season, when we met, I explained that I had to sell the core players, he had actually successfully renewed his contract due to relegation. I told him: 'I don't recommend you stay because I don't know how many players I will lose '. He stared at me, hugged me, and then tore up the contract - giving up all salaries. I will never forget it. When Marseille contacted him a month later, I wrote: 'God has eyes, and fate is taking you to the Champions League '. Tudor is a man with a pattern, which is rare in the football world. "
When did you have a tacit understanding?
"Tudore had been to my house before hiring Di Francesco. But he was worried about replacing Yulic at that time: Ivan performed well in Verona, and he was afraid of messing up. So I chose Di Francesco, but the next day I was shaken - his team confused me and the work group was split. In short, I was worried. After three games, I saw that something was wrong, so I immediately recalled Tudore. At that time, he was more motivated and firm in his beliefs, so he accepted the invitation immediately. "
How does Tudore manage the team?
"He is by no means a harsh person on the contrary. He supports everyone and rarely roars. For example, Yulic and Mandolini are more excited, while Igor is better at thinking. Unlike others, he counts to ten before speaking. This is not a trivial matter. "
What is his most prominent trait?
"He surprised me with his management of the training cycle: he sometimes slowed down his pace compared to other coaches. He never was paranoid. He understood that the team needed space, did not tighten the reins, and never put too much pressure. Damiko sometimes wanted to increase the training volume (he was used to Yulic's way), but in the end this Verona created a miracle on the court. Tudor's management philosophy is correct, so I think he is the ideal coach for the giants. "
You have many excellent coaches: 6 of the current 20 Serie A teams have served in Verona where you are.
"Yes, I have intuition and luck over the years. I think Tudor has not reached his peak yet, but Juventus is his soil and he will achieve great things. I appreciate his ability to resolve tensions - occasional gags can make you look at reality more peacefully. He often talks to me about Croatia, travel and food. He knows the way of rest, and he goes beyond money and values the quality of life of himself and his players. "
What legacy does other coaches leave you?
"Mandolini has reached the peak of her career when she worked with me and has achieved remarkable results in Verona. Di Francesco's tactical thinking is clear, but Grosso may have a broader prospect. I was wrong in Serie B, thinking he is capable of coaching giants like Juventus. He communicated a lot with Baroni, and he may be the one who talked to me the most frequently - Verona is his springboard. Yulic's personality is exhausting and difficult to manage, but no one can motivate the team as he does: I still have goose bumps. Off-court he is fun, but sometimes it makes people crazy when it comes to work. Zanetti's modesty surprised me: he knows how to grow up and deliver trust with Soliano. "
