AFP Liliane Tannoury May 6, 2021 Inter Milan, champions of Italy. If you want a title, get Antonio Conte. The Nerazzurri celebrated their 19th Scudetto last Sunday, Conte finally ending the nine-year reign of Juventus, which he had started in 2012, and getting his revenge on Juve chairman Andrea Agnelli, with whom he exchanged insults in February. https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/antonio-conte-the-master-coach-at-inter-milan-who-has-finally-toppled-juventus-1.1217681 1/4 06/05/2021 Antonio Conte the master coach at Inter Milan who has finally toppled Juventus | The National He is, without a doubt, the great architect of their success; he took an Inter that had finished in fourth place in 2018-19, 21 points behind Juventus, to the top of Serie A two years later. After starting his career as a manager in Arezzo followed by Bari, Atalanta, Siena and Juventus, Conte spent two years with the Italian national team and then Chelsea, where he won a Premier League and FA Cup in two seasons. In May 2019 he signed with Inter Milan - where he faced resistance among fans - and after losing the Europa League final to Sevilla in his first campaign in August 2020, this year he achieved what until recently was unthinkable in Italy: taking the Scudetto away from Juve's clutches. About to turn 52 in July, Conte was born in Lecce, where he started playing as a midfielder in 1985, then became one of the most valuable players in his position. Today he is the highest paid coach in Serie A history, with Inter's Chinese owner Steven Zhanga backing his winning obsession, and putting him at the top of the pay league two years ago. Conte reportedly earns €12 million ($14.4m) net per year, almost five times as much as the next highest-paid coach in Serie A. Eleven years after Jose Mourinho's historic treble, Inter won their 19th Scudetto thanks to an enthusiastic coach whose victorious mentality prevailed. Early elimination from the Champions League prompted speculation he might be sacked but instead it allowed Inter to put all their efforts into Serie A and Conte's has masterminded some brilliant tactics to secure the title. Particularly influenced by the Italian coach Giovanni Trapattoni, Conte built with his trademark 3-5-2 the best defence in the Italian championship. Of course, it was also important to have brought in Romelu Lukaku in 2019 (the €81m fee was a club record) and also Achraf Hakimi for €40m at the beginning of the current campaign. Inter fans celebrate winning Serie A https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/antonio-conte-the-master-coach-at-inter-milan-who-has-finally-toppled-juventus-1.1217681 2/4 06/05/2021 Antonio Conte the master coach at Inter Milan who has finally toppled Juventus | The National Inter Milan fans celebrate winning Serie A at the Piazza del Duomo. Reuters A staunch defender of method and discipline, those who do not follow Conte's orders suffer the consequences. On the field, his rule means that any player who loses possession of the ball has five seconds to recover it before returning to their position. However, although he requires his players to fight for each ball, he does fine anyone who is sent off. It is no accident that Inter have received fewer yellow cards than any other Serie A team this season. Inter players always play at the limit, but rarely over. With Conte, the mind is just as important as the body. A graduate of the Italian football federation's coaching school in Coverciano, he believes that a player needs to study as much as he trains so each player receives meticulous written reports on his direct opponents. 'I train your head, then I train your legs'; It is his motto and the results back it up. https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/antonio-conte-the-master-coach-at-inter-milan-who-has-finally-toppled-juventus-1.1217681 3/4 06/05/2021 Antonio Conte the master coach at Inter Milan who has finally toppled Juventus | The National Published: May 6, 2021 11:44 AM https://www.thenationalnews.com/sport/football/antonio-conte-the-master-coach-at-inter-milan-who-has-finally-toppled-juventus-1.1217681 4/4.

Email: fi[email protected] Edited by: JoseM´ endez´ [Received on 18 December 2020; editorial decision on 10 March 2021; accepted on 22 March 2021] We consider two large datasets consisting of all games played among top-tier European soccer clubs in the last 60 years, and among professional American basketball teams in the past 70 years. We leverage game data to build networks of pairwise interactions between the head coaches of the teams and measure their career performance in terms of PageRank centrality. We identify Arsene` Wenger, Sir Alex Ferguson, Jupp Heynckes, Carlo Ancelotti and Jose´ Mourinho as the top 5 European soccer coaches of all time. In American basketball, the first 5 positions of the all-time ranking are occupied by Red Auerbach, Gregg Popovich, Phil Jackson, Don Nelson and Lenny Wilkens. We further establish rankings by decade and season. We develop a simple methodology to monitor performance throughout a coach’s career, and to dynamically compare the performance of two or more coaches at a given time. The manuscript is accompanied by the website coachscore.luddy.indiana.edu where complete results of our analysis are accessible to the interested readers.

  • Fm Boss Tactics Book
    FM Boss Tactical Guide Analysis of FM Boss Tactics 2012 4-1-3-2 of Cesare Prandelli Updated for FM 2012 The Reborn of Italian National Team Fratelli d'Italia, l'Italia s'e desta... Brother of Italy, Italy woke up... These are the first words of the Italian National Anthem. One country, 4 world cups numerous friends and enemies. But one thing the nobody can deny is the masterclass of Italian Coaches. Excellent in tactics, always extremely well prepared team and above all intelligence and flexibility. The last representative of the big Italian Coaching School is Claudio Cesare Prandelli. An ex player of Juventus, he played under the guidance of legendary Giovanni Trapattoni, winning recognition and trophies. A real fighter, despite he lost his wife in 2007 he continues to have the same desire and ambition for the game. Born in Orzinuovi in 19.8.1957 he was always the most hard working player in every club that he played. Outside of the pitch he is always smiley and humble. The Italian football federation after two failed choices trusted him till 2014. The immature experiments of Donadoni and the old time classic stubbornness of Lippi are over. Cesare keeps his nose down, he is not selling magic ideas and he is trusting a standard squad. He gives always chances to in-form players but he keeps on mind that Squadra Azzura represents whole nation so he needs to be serious and concentrated on what he does. He never speaks for the past and he rarely comments or compares opponents.

    MUSEUM INDEX 1 INTRODUCTION/04 2 BEST CLUBS/10 3 BEST FINALS/17 4 BEST PLAYERS/22 5 ROAD TO WEMBLEY/54 1 INTRODUCTION INTRODUCTION Since the competition was founded as the European Champions Clubs’ Cup over half a century ago, only 22 clubs and 515 players have won it. But, in doing so, they and their opponents have left us an incredibly rich heritage of magic moments. You might not be old enough to remember Alfredo Di Stéfano’s Real Madrid, Eusébio’s Benfica, Johan Cruyff’s Ajax or Franz Beckenbauer’s Bayern back in the days when clubs established dynasties by successfully defending the European crown – something no team has yet managed to do since the competition became the UEFA Champions League in 1992. And exactly what is it that sticks in your mind? Is it a micro-second of breathtaking skill like Zinédine Zidane’s sublime volley in the 2002 final? Do you focus on a wider time-span, such as Manchester United’s three-minute comeback in Barcelona in 1999? Maybe it’s not an image at all, but the sheer drama of a penalty shoot-out. Or perhaps it’s an emotion rather than an image. The Museum of Champions offers you memorabilia and images to inspire memories and help you to re-live the special emotions created by the world’s top club competition.

  • Stagione Sportiva 1970-71
    STAGIONE SPORTIVA 1970-71 E' una stagione stregata, sfortunatissima. Il Milan arriva vicino alla conquista dello scudetto e della Coppa Italia, ma finisce per perderle entrambe. Al posto di Sormani e Lodetti arrivano Biasiolo, Benetti, Villa e Zignoli. Il Milan sempre più Rocco e Rivera, parte molto bene in campionato (vittoria a Torino con la Juve 2-0 e nel derby 3-0) e alla fine del girone d’andata è imbattuto campione d’inverno. La prima sconfitta arriva con l’Inter alla 20° giornata. I nerazzurri si fanno sotto, i rossoneri perdono la loro tranquillità. Alla 23^ sono sconfitti a S. Siro (1-2) dal Varese. E’ il crollo. Scudetto all’Inter con 46 punti, secondo il Milan a 42. La beffa si ripropone in Coppa Italia. Qualificatosi per il gironcino finale a 4, i rossoneri si classificano primi alla pari col Torino. Nello spareggio di Genova, dopo lo 0-0 finale ai supplementari, i granata si aggiudicano il trofeo ai rigori. LA SOCIETA’ Ragione sociale Milan Associazione Calcio S.p.A. (A.C.M.)
