Capello Training Methods (6 Viewers)

[Bjerknes]

Does anybody here have the slightest clue about what Capello does during training? Sometimes I wonder what he actually does during training sessions because we seemingly always suffer from the same flaws in our game...specifically dealing with high balls in the box and movement and passing when attacking the opposition. I would pay a good sum of money to actually attend one of these Juventus practice sessions.

I also wonder whether or not we actually practice freekicks because we do not score many goals off of set pieces.

Your the Chelsea of Italy, save finding no use for extravagant wealth. You are tearing everything up that stands in your way, beating Inter for the first time in so long, with team chemistry depth and quality within the top 5 club teams in Europe.

When Capello say win, they win. When Capello says struggle, they struggle. When your 0-0 at half time, you finish the game with three points in the bag. Time, after time, after time.

Capello is a coaching genius of ilk the world has never seen. His command of the team's respect is absolute, and his discipline reigns supreme. That being said, do you think he possibly could possess a flaw that somehow prevents him from realising what you said?

Capello is the kind of coach who is beyond critique. I've seen fans blast Ancelotti and Mancini, but nobody has a just reason for questioning Capello.

Dare I say it, Capello has found his home among the likes of Moggi and co.

I realise I sound like a pompous asshole. But that is just because I am one.

I'd pay to attend a training session as well, even more so when Lippi was at the helm.

I think Layce hit the bull's eye in his post there. It is similar to something I tried to say yesterday.

So you think it's simple? You think that for example Milan doesn't train corner kicks, freekicks etc. because they always let the goals because of these special occasions? Layce and Jeeks, you honestly haven't seen fans criticizing Capello? Then open your eyes and read the banners. Just like me, I don't question his abilities and his statue as a proven winner, but I'd definitely like to get rid of him because of several, mostly off-field reasons.

Who give's a shit about his off-field stuff... 4 real, as long as he wins and we stay on top overall then I really dont care what he does off-field....... this is my opinion....

Eloquent post, Josh. While there are certainly serious flaws to his game, much of what you wrote here is spot on.

+rep for you.

Well, judging by some of the performances, I wonder Josh...and what does the rest of your post have do with training sessions? In this thread I'm not questioning his merits as a manager...I am only questioning his priorities during training sessions. I'm sure Capello can see at least some of the problems we address here, however from what I have seen the same problems keep reoccuring and that is why I question whether or not he works on such topics during training. Simple and valid question.

Capello is the kind of coach who is beyond critique. I've seen fans blast Ancelotti and Mancini, but nobody has a just reason for questioning Capello.

And this is where your credibility goes right out the window. Nobody has a just reson for questioning Capello? Are you serious?

As if Capello is always right...the man always makes the correct player choices, including selecting Ibrahimovic no matter what, even if terribly off form. The man always uses correct tactics and prepares the squad reasonably for each and every game, even the matches in which we lose patheticly. The man always has the right attitude before each and every match, including instructing our side to be patient against Liverpool despite our need for one goal...only one single goal. Sheesh, I can go on and on and on and not even get into the man away from his technical area on the pitch.

Half the people on this board question Capello's methods, most of the time for good reason because if you watch our side play every week you can see obvious problems holding us back. If you prefer to just nod your head in agreement with everything the man does, than each to his own. But don't think the man is free of any flaws Josh..

Dare I say it, Capello has found his home among the likes of Moggi and co.

Was that ever in question here? No...I have no clue what 90% of your post has to do with said topic.

This thread was not about bashing Capello, rather, asking simple and valid questions about what we do in training because I would like to know. Who wouldn't like to know?

 

[Azzurri7]

I guess they're not training.....playing maybe!

 

[sco_tino]

:..., but I'd definitely like to get rid of him because of several, mostly off-field reasons.

Reasons like what and what?

Now now, Im not saying he is the epitome of perfection (that title is reserved for my backside). But he is as good as it could get when you look at it realistically. It is possible that his tactical philosophy just doesnt accomodate set pieces as much as others, but I am quite sure that if he did skimp out on set pieces it was a measured, deliberate decision.

What I did was not to address your question, but to address the root of your question. And as long as there will be freedom of thought, there will be differences of opinion, and there will be people thinking THEIR formation is better, THEIR player selection is better, THEIR ideas are better.

When he refused to give DP a regular first-team spot, at first I was in shock. It was incredibly bold, benching the club's cash cow of the late 90s, the symbol of the team, a player who was at the top of his game, who even Lippi didnt dare bench. But Capello knew exactly what he was doing. He brought the best out of Del Piero. He gave DP a realistic assessment of his ability and his status, and he cc'd a copy to the rest of the world.

When Capello commented that Veron-Pizarro on the pitch together wouldnt work, I thought "What the hell do you know? They arent intended to play together, bla bla bla." Mancio himself disagreed. Sure enough, Mancio played them together. They sucked. He tried it again. They sucked. Mancio put Veron on the flank and Pizarro in the middle. They were mediocre at best. Needless to say, Inter fans were annoyed. Even if Mancini didnt directly address it, it was a slap on the face.

All Im saying is that you can disagree with his methods, scorn his style, disapprove of some of the smaller details- because everybody has their preferences. But nobody has any reason to doubt his capability to haul in the trophies. Yet. Which is what my spidey-sense picked up in your post.

Off to the wag-cave!

 

[ßöмßäяðîëя]

Don't you mean wank cave?

 

[Chaplain]

Capello, while widely criticised, won the scudetto with juventus last year, and has started this season brilliantly. Sure, two losses, but even in loss juve seem to score.

Also in the both defeats, the goals have come in the first half against, and for in the second half. If capello could only have the playing of the second half for both halves, he'll be hailed as a genius.

No, I don't think it's that simple. Many sides struggle with the same problems all season long, including Milan being susceptible to conceding goals on dead ball situations. But the only way to fix such problems is to work through them.

How you come to that conclusion is beyond me...we already won the Scudetto last season under his guidance, so saying that Capello is unable to bring in the "trophies" is a rather ridiculous statement indeed. Despite my disagreements with the way he runs our side, I have aknowledged the fact that Capello is one of the best managers in the world several times, especially when we welcomed him to the club two summers ago.

So Capello stated Veron and Pizarro could not work in the same midfield, is that so? Well goshdangit, I thought the same thing as well...that's amazing. Fielding two playmakers in central midfield in a straight four system is obviously a risky move indeed and would probably never work with those two players.

We can talk all day long about what we think of Capello, however it has nothing to do with this thread. I just want to find out what Capello stresses most in practice...topics involving whether he works a lot of freeplay or if he uses shadow techniques to train he side. I think it's an interesting topic, however unfortunately I doubt people here have any clue what Capello does in training, and from the looks of it, care.

A manager only has limited time to prepare his team before matches, and he will choose the topics to work on during training session that he finds relevent for success. That is understandable.
