Again our Allievi is one of the top in the country. This tournament is a big one, it featured all big clubs. It's the second year in a row Juve wins it.
The team which played the final is incomplete because they had a lot of 98 kids playing for primavera, and 4 kids to Italy U17. Among them Kean, born in 2000, who is scoring for fun with the Allievi.
They say the best kids of this Allievi and who are probably going to Primavera next season are Conti (regista/DM) and Morselli (left footed CM/AM, who assisted for the victory goal).
Allievi has been on top of Italy for 2 or 3 years now. This year the team's coach is Felice Tufano, who coached Sampdoria's Primavera if I'm not mistaken. They say the team is very well coached and plays a great brand of football, it's not only the results.
The problem starts in Primavera. The kids actually get worse when they move up to Primavera. There are too many players (Italians + foreigners signed), and bad coaching. Grosso has been doing a bad job, the teams is disorganized and players are not confident. Grosso was appointed as the Primavera coach without any experience. The former Allievi coach, Della Morte (if I'm not mistaken), who did a great job last season, instead of being promoted to Primavera, was dismissed from the club.
And then the troublesome transition to professionals, Italy's biggest problem. The best will probably be placed at some team at Serie B. Only a few of the best will be able to make the transition to Serie A. It's really tough for them. The rest will rot in C1/C2.
