Former Player: Sacking Grosso After Three Matches Was Ridiculous, Too Little Time to Judge a Coach

According to reports from TuttoMercatoWeb Radio, former player and coach Massimo Bonanni discussed Grosso's dismissal by Fiorentina and the key Serie A match of this round.

Question: After the league matches this weekend, who would you most like to dedicate these words to?

Bonanni said: "I want to dedicate them to Alvini and Frosinone. They are on a very important path. Getting six points after three matches is significant for a newly promoted team. I hope they can continue like this."

Question: Grosso was dismissed after three matches in charge of Fiorentina, and Vanoli returned. Was this decision correct?

Bonanni said: "In my opinion, for the management to dismiss a coach after only three matches is simply ridiculous. The time was too short to evaluate a coach's work, especially when the team had almost completely changed its squad, and both the coaching staff and management had also changed. There should be more trust in choices that have already been made, and this also applies to Vanoli. Bringing him back now means denying all the decisions made a few months ago. If this decision was made by the owner, it means the sporting director was also bypassed."

Question: Between Roma and Inter Milan, which team impressed you more?

Bonanni said: "Both teams confirmed what I believed. I already thought Roma would comfortably beat Atalanta, although the scoreline was somewhat misleading and did not reflect a bigger margin. As for Inter Milan, I also believed they would beat Napoli. The Nerazzurri were even in danger of losing at one point, but they eventually completed the comeback. As I have said many times before, I believe Inter Milan will win the title, and Roma will be the only team capable of causing them problems."

Question: What answer did Napoli provide against Inter Milan?

Bonanni said: "If Anguissa had scored, things might have been viewed differently. However, I do not agree with Allegri; his characteristics do not match this team. Next comes Arsenal, and do not forget that the president's goal is to see Napoli continue advancing in the Champions League. The team must take this match seriously, but the goal should be to prove that they have the ability to compete."

Question: Between Milan and Juventus, which team convinces you more?

Bonanni said: "Neither. Among the players, I have to say I prefer Woltemade; I think he will be the one to feature later rather than Muani. Technically, this German player is a better fit for Juventus."
