Why do not the gamers just like the 66-year-old coach? – Gasperini’s strategy bordered on dictatorship? You mentioned that. I did not need to discuss it earlier as a result of I used to be afraid that the media would like to speak regarding one thing else. That is how Gasperini made choices. If we had a double coaching session, we needed to spend the night time on the middle and we might not go dwelling. The administration model was partly based mostly on worry. I wanted a change. I did not really feel like an individual, I heard a quantity, Joakim Maehle mentioned in an interview with Aim Italia and triggered an avalanche.
– I had no relationship with the coach. He may torment you over little issues. He reprimanded us once I took Rasmus Hojlund to coaching. He did not need us to spend time collectively or speak. I do not know if that is typical of all Italians, however in the long term it pisses you off and tires you, he added.
When AC Milan followers heckled him following their favorites gained the match, he threw a sandwich at their automotive. Some name him a dictator, others a genius. Summa summarum, each phrases appear to mix into an entire. Gian Piero Gasperini polarizes the soccer group. He’s uncompromising and ruthless. He takes no prisoners.
There are not any equals or extra equals
Alejandro Gomez discovered this out the onerous means. The Argentine was a residing icon of Atalanta. Amongst different issues, and even perhaps primarily due to his nice play, the Bergamo membership turned from a mid-table group into a number one Serie A group.

It began within the 2016/17 season (Gasperini began working). Atalanta then completed the competitors in fourth place, though the 12 months earlier than it was solely thirteenth. Gomez himself scored 16 targets and added 10 assists. He did not decelerate following that. He led his colleagues to additional successes. In 2020, the group from Bergamo superior to the quarterfinals of the Champions League and was near eliminating PSG (one match was performed because of the pandemic, the Parisians scored two targets ultimately and gained 2:1).
The followers in Bergamo cherished him. He appeared untouchable. Nicely, he did. The match towards Midtjylland modified all the things. In the course of the break, Gasperini argued with Gomez. Many harsh phrases had been spoken. Based on media studies, which have by no means been formally confirmed, the insults didn’t finish there. The lads had been at one another’s throats. There have been fights. It grew to become clear that somebody from this duo would depart Bergamo. And rapidly.
The group was satisfied that they might fall for the controversial coach. He mentioned “I am checking”. Town and his teammates stood behind Gomez. It did not assist a lot. He was compelled to go away. He went to Sevilla. He lowered his flights there. After three years, he returned to Serie A. Monza signed him. He performed solely two incomplete matches and… was suspended for doping, and he desperately tried guilty his spouse. Though he won’t ever shake arms with Gasperini, he’ll go to him for a few years – in his worst nightmares.
He harassed the gamers regarding silly issues
The battle with the Argentine might have been probably the most media-related of all of the Italian coach’s quarrels, nevertheless it was under no circumstances the one one. The record goes on. Gasperini had a stormy breakup with Simon Kajer, Martin Skrtel, Pierluigi Gollini and Timothy Castagne. The latter accused him of an inhumane strategy to his career. Gollini admitted that he didn’t need to see him in individual.
– As soon as he made a fuss regarding Hojlund and I going to coaching collectively. Hojlund did not have a driving license, so I organized with the membership to provide him a experience. However Gasperini did not need us to experience collectively as a result of then we may speak and calm down collectively on the way in which to coaching. I used to be reprimanded, the coach may torment the gamers regarding such silly issues, Maehle recalled in an interview with Tipsbladet.
Will the consequence save him once more?
Nevertheless, there should be one thing to the Gasperini phenomenon. In any other case he would not have spent 9 seasons in Bergamo. Though he’s well-known for his punishing coaching classes, and Gomez mentioned that he rests throughout matches, not throughout preparations, he is ready to make gamers “appear like folks.” For instance, Remo Freuler admitted that if it weren’t for the Italian, he would by no means have reached the extent of representing the nation and taking part within the Champions League.
Gasperini can also be defended by the outcomes. Throughout his tenure, Atalanta completed exterior the highest 5 in Serie A solely as soon as (in 2018 and 2022). Every part signifies that he’ll win a spot within the Champions League within the present competitors. It additionally superior to the Europa League remaining and can attempt to finish Bayer Leverkusen’s unbelievable streak (51 matches with out defeat in official competitions). If she succeeds, the Italian coach might be nice once more.
– Being with him on daily basis is troublesome. The work is mentally and bodily exhausting. However if you happen to survive this, there isn’t a means you will not develop into a greater participant. There is no such thing as a higher participant than Gasperini for a younger participant, mentioned Dejan Kulusevski, which appears to be the right punch line that sums up the Italian.
