Antonio Conte (329 Viewers)

[Badass J Elkann]

Yes, you can blame Conte or more so his training methods. Everybody knows that he likes to push his players harder than anyone else. And when the trainings suddenly becomes more intensive, players start to get injuries.

There we have three injuries in short period of time - Florenzi, Pasqual and Marchisio. Something similar happened before when Conte was preparing for games against Albania and Croatia. Pasqual, Ogbonna, Balotelli and Verratti left the camp with injuries. So Mister have his share of blame for those injuries.

for crying out loud Marchisio got injured in a warm up, a bloody warm up! it has nothing to do with Conte's methods.

Look at the number of injuries england have suffered this international week? do you think hodgson makes his players work any harder than Conte?

Marchisio's case was just sheer bad luck and if anything his injury would have been attributed to the fact he has played a hell of a lot recently

I wrote about tendency in general that players get more injuries in Contes training camps. I also didn't blame him alone, I just said that he have his share in this.

Conte: 'Don't use past against me!'

Azzurri Coach Antonio Conte lashes back at his critics, saying his teams 'don't work hard, they work well'.



The Italian expedition to play against Bulgaria on Saturday did not start on the right foot, with midfielder Claudio Marchisio picking up an injury that could keep him sidelined for six months, and the inevitable fury of the Juventus supporters.


“I'm bothered by those who try to use my past against me,” said the former Juventus Coach in today's Press conference.


“But I don't mind the controversy, I've always lived in it. Professor [Enrico] Castellacci already explained everything [about the injury]."


Fiat Group President John Elkann was among the most prominent critics, publicly asking why the national team forced players to work so hard.
“I wonder why Elkann didn't ask me that when I was at Juventus? We don't work 'hard', we work well.


“Marchisio is an important player for us, but he'll be replaced aptly by [Andrea] Bertolacci, who will play in his stead.


Professor Castellacci, also present at the conference, made a statement to clarify the circumstances in which the player hurt himself.


“We're doing some exams to quantify the injury,” he said.
“His injury was absurd and inexplicable. He hurt himself while warming up, running without the ball."
“It's a shame because it happened in a paradoxical manner, when the training still had to begin.”

Conte clearly took a sledgehammer to Marchisio's knees, it's all his fault.

I recall Juve having one of the fewest injury casualties when Conte was in charge of Juve, perhaps we ought to question the physio's at Juve now and the conditioning methods used

What? Conte was constantly complaining about injured players. We had our CB crisis last year when a different CB seemed to get injured weekly in the winter. Plus Vidal's injury. Plus Pepe being injured for 2/3s of Conte's tenure. Vucinic last year. Etc. We had lots of injuries under Conte.

 

[Juvellino]

Marchisio's injury is not Conte's fault but it is hypocritical for Conte to get mad at club coaches when he got mad when his players would get called to national teams.

 

[Post Ironic]

And if Marchisio actually managed to rupture an ACL during a warmup without the ball then something is seriously wrong with the warmup methods of the NT, or else they're warming up on shit turf or grass that would allow a freak injury like this to occur.

in comparison to the likes of milan? we were lucky to call upon Pogba, Marchisio, Pirlo, Asamoah, Tevez, Llorente, Matri, Giovinco, Chiellini, Bonucci and to a certain extent Barzagli till last season most weeks

again that has nothing to do with Conte, this is the responsibility of the fitness coaches.

Shit happens stop pointing fingers and just accept it.

Conte was so desperate to set the points record last year that he played an injured Vidal against Serie A minnows during the run-in and basically turned him into half the player he was.

'Conte? Once a Coach, now...'
By Football Italia staff

Fiat Group President John Elkann says Antonio Conte is 'not a Coach' as he escalates their argument.

The man behind Juventus as a business and the man who used to be behind their tactics are caught in a heated polemic after midfielder Claudio Marchisio picked up a cruciate ligament injury in training.

The Bianconeri lose the player at a crucial juncture as they prepare for the Champions League quarter-finals against Monaco, and this prompted Elkann to publicly question Conte's work-loads in training.

On from the triple Scudetto winner's response, Elkann stoked their argument again.

“Conte used to be a Coach in Turin, but in the national team he's just a cherry-picker,” he said, as reported by Gazzetta.it.

“Those are two different jobs. Perhaps he'd like to be remembered as the cherry-picker with the highest number of injuries.”

That looks like a Lazio symbol on his shirt FYI

 

[oldlady87]

Elkann should stick to his cricket club.

 

[Post Ironic]

Conte should probably ask for a new medical staff. The current one apparently doesn't have the ability to understand an MRI.

yet he was made to play through a world cup following knee injury, common man the chile manager has just as much if not more of the blame in all this

 

[Zacheryah]

Conte overplayed Vidal, wich resulted in Chile beeing pissed off. They respodnded by fielding him in meaningless games, aggrevating the situation.

 

[MikeM]

There's no question Conte played Vidal for no reason.
