Bye bye 👋Sparetti: You are still too polite to me, and your attitude will be worse if you ask me to evaluate it.

Italy defeated Moldova 2-0, and Spaletti ended his national team's curtain call. After the game, Spaletti attended the press conference for the last time as the head coach of the Italian national team.

Is there a little passion missing?

Sparletti: "It's something missing. The audience expressed their enthusiasm to us, and we should have driven them more."

How are you feeling now?

Sparletti: "I got along very well with the difficulties, they have been with me for the rest of my life. When I see people sympathizing with me, I really want to give him a hammer, I don't accept this sympathy, I always respond like this. I feel depressed by the outcome of the game because I failed to hand over a very strong national team to the successor, because we didn't play a great game tonight. I got the opportunity to work, I tried, I did something wrong, and I tried some... I tried to fully understand it when I came into contact with anything, and I didn't think I was the smartest one. I failed to get these players to the best, and I have to admit that. Everyone's performance is below the level. You are still too polite to me, and if I evaluate you one day, I might have a worse attitude..."

What advice would I give to my successor?

Sparetti: "When I took office, I tried to bring some impact, but maybe the situation became worse afterwards. As you can see from what you see, Buffon blamed me 4 or 5 times. Buffon gave me a lot of help. Only afterwards can you realize whether you are doing well or bad, I tried and tried my best. I wish all the best of all the best of the Italian Football Association and the new head coach."

What will you take away in the past two years?

Sparletti: "It is the regret of my love for this national team... Tonight, when we arrived, 7 or 8 children even risked being run by our bus to say goodbye to us. We have reflected on this love of the people around us two or three times. If we cannot repay this love through our performance on the court, it means we don't understand anything." What did the players say when they heard the resignation statement?

Sparetti: "They were silent and there was no need to say anything to me. I informed the players first and announced it at the press conference. I called them five minutes in advance because they already had a premonition, and we did this to eliminate the atmosphere of speculation. Otherwise, there will be chaos today and tomorrow... I only blame myself because I didn't do my job well. Someone may ask what the national team will take? What was it like when I took over, and I will hand it back now. What kind of thing is... It is because there is no improvement that I am in vain. When I coached the national team for the first time, everyone was worried that I would not be able to enter the European Cup. Now when I left office, the national team returned to the same situation. I sincerely hope that the successor can improve. The facts will prove that I have no intention of talking or pretending to behave. I really hope that someone can tell those players who rejected the national team: Don't think about going back when I come. I may have lost my composure to that response, but later we called. I told Archerby Sorry, he said, 'Coach, you'll be fine if you say that...' This matter has passed. It's true that he was not called in the early stage, but I wanted to give Calafiori and Buongiorno a chance, and we are still training Leoni. I believe others will make the same choice. I asked 'how old is he?' and was planning for the next World Cup. Archerby at the end of the season is the best in the team, and I have to choose people based on the league performance. This made me a little confused. Actually, I brought a few extra players, but everyone in terms of physical fitness All were exhausted... There were naturally many difficulties without muscles and legs. Tonali could always bear it. He had the nerves and tenacity of an African player, but unfortunately the whole team was almost collapsed now. Maybe I made some mistakes in selecting people, and I was not lucky enough to play Norway away in the first game. If I played two more relaxed games first, I would play key games in September, the situation would be different. Having said that, I didn’t lead the team well after all. The difference was too far. ”

Is this national team marginalized by the football system? Any suggestions?

Sparletti: "The other leagues are also handled in this way, I don't know... I really don't know. From a technical perspective alone: ​​we need the legs and feet of cats and the muscles of African players, and the nerves of one-on-one battles. There must be such players, because the opponent has both meat grinders and iron-lung long-distance runners, so it's difficult to play. Players who are good at single-soldiers must be given priority. I called Chiesa but he has never played; Zachani was unwell and asked to stay at home to recuperate; Zaniolo has lost his position... But theoretically, this type of single-handed player should be used, and all teams should be equipped with two, and this type of person can break the deadlock on the football field to win."

Is there such a big difference between being a national team coach and a club coach?

Sparletti: "I don't know, I have always been taught that I must solve problems by myself. Since I take over as a national team coach like me, I must find a solution. I cannot use the excuse of not being enough players as an excuse to shirk responsibility. I didn't do it well, and it would be reasonable to dismiss the get out of class. But I don't quit voluntarily because I think I can do better. If the Football Association believes that I am no longer competent, I will sign and terminate the contract immediately. The national team I handed over is exactly the same as when I took over, and it has not changed at all."
