Bonetti: “If You Get the Team’s Core Wrong, It’s Over” – On Sampdoria’s Serie C Relegation

Ivano Bonetti, who had stints at both Juventus and Sampdoria, recently spoke on Tmw Radio during the `Maracanà` broadcast, offering his perspective on Sampdoria`s recent relegation to Serie C.

Bonetti stressed the need for a clear direction: “A project spanning three or four years needs to be built here, led by competent individuals who truly understand the significance of this club and its fanbase. I was at the stadium just last week, and the full house gave me chills, even more so than in my playing days. The Sampdoria faithful will support you if they see genuine effort, but not if there`s only talk and no action.”

He further commented on performance issues: “I observed incorrect approaches. There`s a constant belief that tactics are the ultimate solution, but the truth is, it always comes down to mentality and attitude. Quality on paper isn`t sufficient; you need players with substance on the field, particularly mental strength. There`s a lack of leaders on the pitch who can truly drive the team. If you get the fundamental structure of the team wrong, it`s simply doomed.”
