Italian media football-italia reported that Italian coach Capello criticized the Italian football style as going astray. Capello believes that Italy has been imitating Guardiola's style of football for 15 years, but this is not right, because Italy does not have the technology to learn Spanish football. Capello suggested that Italian football should learn Klopp, learn German football.

After losing 1-0 to North Macedonia, Italy has won two consecutive World Cups, and the last time Italy appeared in the World Cup knockout stage was in 2006, the year Italy finally won the championship. After winning the Champions League last year, Mancini's side then entered a bottleneck period and eventually lost to North Macedonia in the first round of this play-off.
In an interview with Italian media, Capello also expressed his views on the defeat. Capello said: "Italian football has been imitating Guardiola for 15 years, we don't have that kind of one-foot ability, we don't have this technical basis, Italian football has no tradition of passing. So, we Italian football should learn Klopp's style of football. ”
"In Italy, only atalanta is playing Spanish football, but you look at their results. Brieching of Genoa, he brought something even more Klopp than Klopp. The German way of football is the direction that we can learn in Italian football, and we really don't have the technical ability to learn Spain. Capello said.
Commenting on the decline in Italian football in recent years, Capello analyzed: "The pace of European matches is fast, we are not used to it yet, and there are not enough young Italian players. There is a basic data that is obvious, but there are no mistakes raised in the past. We in Italy are actually a country that is very good at passing the ball back to the goalkeeper, and sometimes when I see some statistics, such as 45 passes by a player, how many of them are key passes, how many passes are useful passes? ”
