The first talking point on tactics was about Cristiano Ronaldo:”He has won everything at the individual and team level starting from the left side. The first attempt will be to use him from that position, but with his qualities moving him ten meters doesn’t change anything” Maurizio Sarri started his press conference to introduce the International Champions Cup match against Tottenham this way.
Sarri was asked about his new addition Matthijs De Ligt:”He has yet to practice with his teammates, but he’ll certainly play a part of the match. We are behind Tottenham in terms of preparation but I hope to see right mentality on the pitch”
Sarri was then asked about Paul Pogba:”I’m not a sporting director, I’m a manager. Pogba is a player that I like, but he’s a Manchester United player. I don’t know more that that”
