L'ex centrocampista parla a Dazn

"Il ritmo è la più grande differenza tra Serie A e Premier League. Contro il Parma non siamo riusciti a trovare gli spazi giusti. Fab Four? C'è tanta qualità quando giochiamo insieme: mi aiutano a migliorare. I tifosi ci supportano bene e noi cerchiamo di farli emozionare. Finale di stagione? Vincere per qualificarci in Champions" Il calciatore del Napoli, Kevin De Bruyne, è intervenuto in esclusiva ai microfoni di Radio CRC, emittente partner del club: Di seguito le sue parole: «Abbiamo conquistato molti punti in queste ultime partite, anche se non abbiamo preso i tre punti a Parma. Sento che c'è qualcosa di diverso da quando sono tornato, l'atmosfera è un po' più positiva: era stato un momento difficile. Abbiamo provato a competere, abbiamo conquistato tanti punti e dobbiamo vincere tante partite per qualificarci alla prossima Champions League. Come sto? Mi sento bene, sono tornato bene e prima del previsto. Per me è stato davvero bello a inizio stagione, ho giocato molte partite, ma poi è arrivato l'infortunio. Adesso, però, secondo me sto facendo bene: sono davvero felice. Penso che la Serie A sia molto diversa dalla Premier League, ma devo ammettere che anche quando giocavo con il City, molte squadre ci affrontavano con il blocco basso, perché per loro era molto difficile pressarci visto il modo in cui gestivamo la palla. Quando giochi contro queste squadre, devi trovare il modo di trovare gli spazi giusti. Purtroppo non siamo riusciti a farlo contro il Parma ed è un peccato. Ma a volte succede. La decisione di lasciare il City è stata presa di comune accordo con la società. A volte, quando si sta insieme tanto tempo, succede. Avevo offerte da tutto il mondo, ma mi piace ancora giocare a calcio ad alti livelli e il Napoli mi ha dato questa opportunità. Quando si prendono queste decisioni ci sono tante cose da considerare, come soldi, famiglia e tutto il resto, ma alla fine ho deciso per il Napoli. Differenze tra Serie A e Premier? In Italia le squadre giocano in modo molto simile tra loro, annullandosi un po' a vicenda, mentre in Inghilterra ci sono molte squadre che giocano in maniera diversa. Giocatori che vanno uomo su uomo e che poi giocano basso o che giocano alto, moduli diversi. In Italia molte squadre giocano a cinque dietro, con il 5-3-2 o il 5-4-1. Direi che il ritmo è la più grande differenza tra Italia e Inghilterra, ma soprattutto per lo stile di gioco. Qui a Napoli ho trovato un gruppo ottimo, sono rimasto sorpreso dalla qualità dei giocatori, penso che abbiamo molti buoni giocatori. Sono stati molto accoglienti, per me che arrivavo da un gruppo che conoscevo benissimo non era facile. Ma il gruppo mi ha fatto sentire subito inserito e penso che tutto sia andato molto bene. Fab Four? Non mi interessa nessun nome. Sento che a volte intorno c'è troppo rumore. Sai quando giocavo al City, giocavo con i migliori giocatori del mondo: penso che tutti possano giocare insieme, è solo una questione di adattarsi con i ragazzi con cui giochi in quel momento. C'è molta qualità con tutti e quattro in campo: hanno fatto molto bene in passato, stanno facendo molto bene ora, mi hanno aiutato a migliorare. Capacità di scanning? Non mi sono mai realmente allenato su questo e sugli assist. Penso che sia il mio stile di gioco, ma cerco di adattarmi ai calciatori che giocano con me, per cercare di metterli nella giusta posizione e nelle giuste condizioni in modo che possano performare al meglio. Sai ognuno è diverso: se giochi con le ali o no, cerchi di trovare le soluzioni giuste per poi eseguirle nel migliore dei modi. Penso sia importante avere i tifosi che sostengono la squadra. Penso che la gente sa che sono venuto qui per lavorare sodo e al meglio delle mie capacità e va di pari passo: se andiamo bene, ci loderanno e sosterranno. Ma lo percepisci in città, sai che c'è una sola squadra a Napoli, è un po' diverso da Manchester che ne ha due. Ci stanno sostenendo molto bene e cerchiamo di farli emozionare. Mi sto ambientando abbastanza bene. Vivo un po' fuori città, cerco anche di trovare il mio spazio, perché sono quel tipo di persona. Ma ho anche tre figli, seguo ogni cosa che fanno, quindi sono abbastanza occupato. A volte vado in città , cerco di vederla un po' e godermela, perché ne hai bisogno nella vita. Capisco abbastanza bene l'italiano, ma parlarlo è un po' difficile. Ci sto provando, ma non sono bravo ancora abbastanza per fare interviste come questa. Però quando le persone parlano tra loro, capisco abbastanza bene le frasi, anche perché so parlare francese e altre lingue. Napoletano? Prima l'italiano e poi il napoletano (ride n.d.r.)».

Il mondo del pallone piange Alexander Manninger. La tragica scomparsa di un ex portiere, ma per chi l'ha conosciuto da vicino è qualcosa di più: la perdita di un amico. Dalla Fiorentina al Siena, passando per Torino e Bologna fino ad Arsenal, Liverpool e Salisburgo, le squadre in cui ha militato l'austriaco hanno mandato i loro messaggi di cordoglio. E poi c'è la Juventus, ci sono i giocatori che per quattro anni hanno condiviso con lui lo spogliatoio fino alla conquista dello Scudetto nel 2012. Anche Leonardo Bonucci ha ricordato sui social l'ex compagno Alex Manninger, scomparso oggi in un grave incidente: "Pochi mesi fa ci siamo visti e mi hai raccontato la tua nuova vita. È difficile accettare tutto questo. Riposa in pace Alex!", ha scritto su Instagram l'ex difensore bianconero su Instagram.

L'ammissione del nome forte della Lega Serie A

Siparietto curioso negli studi Sky nel post-partita della Champions League.

Lunga intervista di Simone Tiribocchi, ex attaccante e ora allenatore e opinionista tv, a Fanpage: "I ricordi legati al calcio sono tanti. Sicuramente ero un bambino molto timido. Non ero particolarmente sveglio o “furbo”, come si diceva all’epoca. Facevo fatica anche solo a giocare con i più grandi. Una volta, addirittura, ho vomitato per l’ansia di dover giocare con loro. I provini mi preoccupavano, qualunque cosa somigliasse a una prova o a un esame mi creava agitazione. Mi ricordo però che ero molto, molto veloce. All’epoca non esistevano i campi a cinque, a sette o a nove: si giocava direttamente a undici, su campi grandi. Con la mia velocità riuscivo a fare davvero la differenza e a segnare tanti gol". LA PASSIONE PER IL CALCIO E PER LA ROMA "Io e mio padre eravamo tifosi della Roma, è stato lui a trasmettermi questa passione. Con il lavoro che ho fatto, però, quella fede si è trasformata in una simpatia. Perché è difficile mantenere una fede così forte, quando il calcio lo vivi da dentro. Con mio padre comunque ho visto una quantità enorme di partite. All’epoca c’erano anche programmi sulle reti private che parlavano di calcio, e prima di Internet tanti risultati li vedevamo sul Televideo. Oggi basta prendere il telefono e trovi tutto subito". BOMBER SENZA GOAL "Due o tre partite senza gol ci possono stare, ma poi arriva l’ansia. La gente te lo fa pesare, i giornali, i media, e oggi ancora di più i social. I numeri certificano tutto: tiri, tocchi, errori. Non mi toglieva il sonno da giocatore, ma la responsabilità la sentivi eccome. Più non segni, più aumenta la pressione e meno rendi". PARTITA DA CANCELLARE "Ero all’Atalanta, in Serie B. Dovevamo vincere il campionato, ma partimmo male. Sbagliai un rigore con il Modena, poi venni espulso contro il Livorno. In quel periodo lo stress fu enorme: mi venne persino l’alopecia alla barba. Era un periodo difficile anche a livello personale che non ricordo molto volentieri". CONTE E GLI ALLENAMENTI DI VENTRONE "Niente palestra: esercizi da Marines, musica compresa. Usava strumenti avanzati per l’epoca, come il GPS collegato al computer. Con lui dovevi lavorare con il cuore oltre al 95% per 50 minuti. Se non lo facevi, non era soddisfatto. Questo portava anche al vomito, dovuto all’acido lattico. È successo anche a me, ma fa parte del lavoro". MOMENTI DIFFICILI "La difficoltà legata alla nascita di mio figlio, che ho già raccontato. I tanti pianti sotto la doccia dopo prestazioni brutte o periodi di forte pressione. All’inizio ti vergogni a dire che hai pianto, poi con il passare del tempo capisci che può liberarti. Ricordo un pianto fortissimo nello spogliatoio del Benevento: ero stato messo sotto pressione dai tifosi, ero stato molto criticato nelle settimane precedenti. Scoppiai in lacrime dopo aver segnato un gran gol al volo, non ricordo contro chi, forse il Palermo".

Il canadese traccia un bilancio dei suoi primi mesi alla Juventus

Brazil former star Filipe Luis highlighted the importance of Carlo Ancelotti at this crucial moment. With two months to go before the start of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Brazil are hopeful that Carlo Ancelotti can provide the national team with a tactical identity that allows them to compete for the title in North America. Filipe Luis expressed confidence that the Italian coach will get the job done in time. “Ancelotti brings us many good things,” Filipe Luis said during a conference organized by Conmebol this week, according to Diario AS. “There are no guarantees we’ll win anything, but it’s the best that could have happened.” The former Atletico Madrid defender pointed to the timing of Ancelotti’s arrival to take over the national team. In mid-2025, Brazil were coming off a heavy loss to Argentina in Buenos Aires and, with four matches remaining in the South American qualifiers, had not yet secured their place in the World Cup. Carlo Ancelotti delivered the results needed to achieve that goal and has since used every FIFA break to shape a team that had struggled to meet expectations since the departure of Tite after the 2022 World Cup at Qatar. Vinicius Junior is subbed off by Carlo Ancelotti, Head Coach of Brazil. Filipe Luis believes in Brazil’s chances The general consensus among fans and analysts lists Spain, France and Argentina as the top favorites to win the 2026 World Cup. Despite being the most successful national team in the competition’s history, Brazil are not placed in that top tier, but rather in a second group alongside other powerhouses such as Germany, England and Portugal. However, Filipe Luis warned those who might count Brazil out of the title race. “Brazil will always be one of the favorites, even when things aren’t going well,” said the former Flamengo manager, extending that view to Argentina as well. To support his confidence in Ancelotti’s squad, Filipe Luis pointed to the team’s individual talent: “People don’t believe Brazil can win. But if you look at the five best players in the world, we have two: Raphinha and Vini Jr.” Brazil’s path in the 2026 World Cup Brazil are in Group C of the 2026 FIFA World Cup. They will open their campaign on June 13 against Morocco at MetLife Stadium in New Jersey, before traveling to Philadelphia six days later to face Haiti. Their final group-stage match will be on June 24 in Miami against Scotland. If everything goes as expected and Carlo Ancelotti’s side finish top of the group, they will advance to the Round of 16, where they would face the runner-up of Group F — made up of Netherlands, Japan, Sweden and Tunisia — in Houston on June 29.

Chris Richards’ towering header sealed a 1-0 win over Saudi Arabia to send the USMNT through to the Gold Cup knockouts. Jimmy Conrad, Charlie Davies, and Tony Meola break down the highs and lows from the narrow victory over the Green Falcons. The first half lacked attacking threat, but a more assured second-half display - with standout performances from Tyler Adams and Sebastian Berhalter in midfield - proved enough. Mauricio Pochettino rolled with the same starting XI for a second straight game, but with the knockouts looming and Haji Wright nursing an injury, will he tweak the setup going forward? Could a two-striker system be on the cards? The guys also preview Sunday’s group stage finale, where the U.S. take on Haiti looking to wrap things up with a perfect nine points.
