Arrigo Sacchi warns Maurizio Sarri will “inevitably run into problems, because novelty is not always accepted by players” at Juventus and Chelsea.
The former Napoli tactician is a complete transformation from Max Allegri and before him Antonio Conte.
“Sarri will inevitably run into problems, because he is proposing new ideas and novelty is not always accepted by players,” Grande Milan boss Sacchi told La Gazzetta dello Sport magazine SportWeek.
Arrigo Sacchi warns Maurizio Sarri will “inevitably run into problems, because novelty is not always accepted by players” at Juventus and Chelsea.
The former Napoli tactician is a complete transformation from Max Allegri and before him Antonio Conte.
“Sarri will inevitably run into problems, because he is proposing new ideas and novelty is not always accepted by players,” Grande Milan boss Sacchi told La Gazzetta dello Sport magazine SportWeek.
“The club will have the job and the duty to support their Coach, exactly the same way Silvio Berlusconi did with me in the 1980s when I first arrived.
“In any case, I believe President Andrea Agnelli has made a wonderful move by hiring Sarri. He has sparked a genuine revolution that can work to the advantage of all Italian football. It’s a cultural step up and not a small one, either.
“If you hire Sarri, it means you want to win, but you also want to do it via beautiful football, spectacle and emotions.”
Some have questioned how the gruff and argumentative Sarri will fit in at Juventus after some fiery moments on the bench of Napoli and Chelsea.
“He is not a great communicator. Let’s just say he does his talking on the pitch,” confessed Sacchi. “However, although he’s not that chatty, Sarri is still a good man, honest and who says what he thinks to your face.
“If Agnelli and everyone in the club are fully convinced, Juve could entertain everyone for a long time to come.”
