Capello: Tudor pays the price for wrong summer window, Spalletti can revive Juventus

Famous coach Capello was interviewed and talked about Tudor's dismissal and Spalletti's possible coaching of Juventus.

What's the problem between Juventus and Tudor?

The "original sin" lies in the club's "half-hearted" trust in Tudor. Last summer, the management also searched for other coaches, and only later confirmed Tudor through a contract extension. Players can "smell the smell" in the air and look for excuses in situations like this. But the real question is: Did Tudor build this team, or someone else?

What is your impression?

As long as Bremer is there, the team can barely maintain it. Without it, it will collapse. Tudor may have wanted other signings in the summer and now he is paying the price for a transfer market that is "not of Juventus standards".

After Harland, three of the top six shooters born after 2000 are Juventus players: David, Vlahovich and Oponda. However, Juventus' forwards have not scored since September 16th. What's the problem?

The coach has to get the best out of his players, and if none of the three forwards can score, you have to ask yourself why. They did squander some chances, but to be honest, Juventus have struggled to create chances in recent games.

From frequent lineup changes to recent communication methods, what is Tudor’s main fault?

Frequent lineup changes are never a good sign and mean the coach can't find a solution. The truth is, the real Juventus spirit has only emerged this season against Real Madrid at the Santiago Bernabeu.

Tudor's remarks about the lack of championship players are also counted as his problem, do you agree?

No. I've always admired Tudor on a communication level. When he talks about the lack of championship players, he's right. This is a problem for Italian football, not just a Juventus problem. Things are different now: it is difficult for top players to choose Serie A these days. Clubs are therefore forced to bet on reinforcements who can help, but not all of them can withstand the pressure of our giants.

Spalletti is the first choice to succeed Tudor. Is he the right person at the right time?

Spalletti is an experienced coach who has coached wealthy clubs and won championships. After the disappointment of the Italian national team, he will have a spirit of revenge within him, which in the current situation may be an added value. What could be better than starting over with a club as old and prestigious as Juventus? Spalletti has the right charisma to revive the Bianconeri midway through the season.

Palladino has done well in Monza and Fiorentina, but Juventus is a higher level of difficulty. Will

give Motta a chance?

Frankly, no. Thiago Motta has done a great job at Bologna, but recalling him to Juventus midway through the season after last season's problems doesn't seem ideal for either Juventus or Motta.

If you were Spalletti, where would you start over?

Any coach must start with Yildiz and rediscover the goals from the forwards. But...

But...

If you don't have a superstar like Messi or Yamal who know how to score goals with the ball themselves, then you have to get the ball to the forwards in the box. Even a phenomenal player like Haaland needs support. In addition to Spalletti's coaching ability, it also requires the passing of the ball from midfielders and technical players to allow Vlahovic, David and Oponda to score.

What if you met John Elkann, Agnelli’s grandson in a restaurant?

What can you say to a boss who has invested heavily in Juventus in recent years and has never lacked financial support? I will ask Elkann about Chiellini, though.

What do you mean?

I don't quite understand who is calling the shots at the club right now, but there is no doubt that someone with Chiellini's experience and depth would be helpful around the team, a bit like the role Maldini played in Pioli's Scudetto-winning Milan. However, Chiellini now appears to be busy with institutional matters.
