The Bianconeri wing-back has hailed Juventus manager for his ability to get the best out of players, and the vision to turn good payers into champions.
Mauricio Isla has stated that he sees Antonio Cote as parallel to Marcelo Bielsa, and has stated that both the managers posses the quality to bring out the best from their respective teams.
The Chilean international recently joined the Turin giants from Udinese, as the Champions look to revamp their squad for the next season’s UEFA Champions League, and the player has been left impressed by the first impression of his new manager in the pre-season
training.
Isla revealed that he still follows the culture that he had internalized during his time under Bielsa, and insisted that he sees a lot of similarities between his ex-coach and Conte.
The former Udinese defender stated that the Bianconeri manager is a person capable of bringing out the best from his team, and insisted that he also has the ability to help good players grow into protagonists of tomorrow.
The Old Lady wing-back went on to stress that he is relishing the opportunity to play alongside the likes of Gigi Buffon, Andrea Pirlo and http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Giorgio-Chiellini-c14963 at Juventus.
The Bianconeri defender added that it is a great experience for him to play in Juventus’ new stadium, and insisted that he felt great warmth at the arena despite the snow.
While talking to the press, the Chilean international said:
“I have the mentality of http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Marcelo-c23554 Bielsa, which is that of a culture of work. It might also be a coincidence, but the first thing Conte said was identical to what was said during my time under Bielsa. I don’t know him well enough yet, but Conte gives the
feeling of getting the most out of his players. If you are good, you can become a champion with him. Plus, you are next to champions like Buffon, Pirlo, Chiellini, whilst there is also now the Juventus Stadium. I played there in the snow, but it conveyed unique
warmth.”
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Mauricio-Isla-c24922 went on to conclude that he has played on the right-wing in the 3-5-2 and 3-4-3 systems, and will be comfortable doing the same under Antonio Conte.
