This interview is a bit old(after Italy's failure to qualify ) but I found it interesting.
Here's the Interview .
I apologize in advanced if this doesn't deserve a thread, I wanted to bump an older thread but couldn't find a suitable one so I just made a new onw.

This part may pick your interest as it's a jab at some foreign strikers, fair to say that he doesn't rate the likes of lukakuItalian football has imitated Guardiola for 15 years,” Capello told Sky Sport Italia.
“There were no vertical passes or physical strength, there is no habit to making challenges. On the other hand, we should follow Jurgen Klopp’s playing style.
“The only ones doing that in Italy are Atalanta and look at their results. Vincenzo Italiano is trying something similar, same as Alexander Blessin at Genoa who is offering even something more than Klopp. The German way is the model to follow, we don’t have the technique to look at the Spanish one.
“There is a high pace in European competition and we are not accustomed to it,” the ex-coach continued.
“There are not enough young Italian players, but there is a wrong idea at its base. We are the country of the back pass to the goalkeeper.
he also addedVictor Osimhen, Romelu Lukaku and Tammy Abraham were just normal strikers abroad. They became champions in Italy. This should raise some questions.
Interesting insights some of which i think applies to United as well.Sometimes, I am surprised to read some stats. ‘That player made 45 passes…’ Ok, but how many were key passes? How many of those passes were useful?”
