Former Inter coach Andrea Stramaccioni backs Roberto Mancini and calls criticism of the Italy manager “ridiculous” after only three days. He argues that there is not enough time to judge Mancini’s work or results, given how quickly international set-ups can change and how short early impressions can be.
Stramaccioni also says Mancini cannot simply repeat the same tactics that delivered success at Euro 2020. He points out that the squad currently available differs from the one that won the tournament, meaning any plan must account for player strengths, roles, and form. Across the coverage, the emphasis is on maintaining perspective during a transition period rather than focusing on immediate outcomes or early tactical decisions.
