A coach explains the influence of major managers such as Guardiola, Klopp, and Roberto De Zerbi on his style
Coach Davide (36 years old) highlights the difficulty of linking himself to a single coaching school as a key source of inspiration in football, noting that he prefers to draw diverse experiences from different coaches working in the field.
He points out that Guardiola was a pioneer and a groundbreaking figure, emphasizing his importance. He also mentions Jürgen Klopp for his decisive high-pressing style and tactical structure, as well as Roberto De Zerbi for his approach to finding the “third man” and other small details he has discovered. He also acknowledges the influence of Simone Inzaghi’s defensive period, as well as Unai Emery and his father’s coaching school.
He considers that his father was trained in the famous Arrigo Sacchi school, known for zonal defending and the 4-4-2 system.
He confirms that all these ideas have shaped his identity as a coach, explaining that the process of building his coaching identity is ongoing and that he has not yet fully established himself as a coach. Some people see him as similar to his father, but he insists he is not exactly the same; he shares similarities but differs in several aspects as a coach.
He stresses that a coach must be flexible in his approach, saying: “I believe a coach is not necessarily one thing or another; there is always a middle ground. You adapt to the players, and sometimes to the opponent, but you also need clear ideas about what you prefer as a coach.”
He concludes by saying: “In the end, the team becomes what you care about, and what you choose to prioritize.”
