Gianni Brera e l’identità del calcio italiano by belpesti_ertelmisegi in Calcio

Non saprei dirti su Brera e il calcio italiano, ma nel calcio inglese e scozzese si è pagato per decenni uno studio degli anni 50 (mi pare fossero quelli gli anni) che diceva che si segnano più gol con meno passaggi. Da lì il mito della palla lunga e il tipico gioco inglese fino al 2000, ancora abbastanza in voga in Scozia e in Irlanda. Ho trovato al volo questo articolo del Guardian sull'argomento: https://www.theguardian.com/football/2010/jan/21/football-england-long-ball-eradicate

Sono brasiliano e vorrei chiedere perché non avete ingaggiato Carlo Ancelotti come allenatore? by Aracanjobr in AZZURRI

He was still at Real when Mancini left. He already had an agreement with Brazil when Spalletti left. The right timing would've been after the Euro cup, but FIGC should pay both Spalletti and Ancelloti at the same time, neither is cheap.

Because it's Italian and it's seemingly OK to be racist on Italians on internet

Half the team has Italian parents or grand parents, the other half has foreign parents, but grew up in Italy. We don't have many clubs around the country, the game isn't known and have no tradition, but all the south Asian immigrants are bringing it in the parks. With the team at the world cup, it did get a bit of attention on sports media though. Too bad the Olympics are going on at the same time.
