Description

The Thinkers' Factory is the compelling story of Italian coaching, uncovering how Italy has consistently produced football's finest managers. For nearly a century, Italian coaching has been the gold standard.

From Vittorio Pozzo's World Cup heroics to Nereo Rocco's intelligence, Arrigo Sacchi's innovation to Carlo Ancelotti's obsession with winning, this book explores the coaching careers of the men who gave Italy its unrivalled reputation. Italian football has been shaped by politics, religion and society.

From the dark days of fascist rule to the current era, the country has always found a way to keep winning.

Through deep influences, education and frequent reinvention, Italy has ensured it remains on top - and as it continues to develop the sport's best coaches, that carousel of success is unlikely to stop anytime soon. Through interviews with key figures, stories and tactics of some of the best Italian-led teams and analysis of the great coaches, this book brings you the inside track.
