Mourinho's bluntness was good for Italian football
Gianluca Minchiotti
The president of the Italian Coach Association, Renzo Ulivieri spoke to calciomercato.com about Mourinho, who was officially presented today at Real Madrid: "I think he has improved tactically coaching in Italy. He adapted very well to our football, because he's "very Italian". Did he leave something positive? Well, we were used to speaking with far too many cliches. He was more blunt. Perhaps, thanks to him, now we are starting to talk a bit more clearly".
On the new Italy coach, Cesare Prandelli, Ulivieri said: "He's the right man for the national team due to his skill and personality".
