Matias Soule, Roma winger, shared his thoughts on Allegri and Ranieri: `We know less than you about the new coach (laughs). I learned a great deal from Allegri, then I moved to Frosinone to play more, but I spent a year with him. The coach wanted us to play very tight to prevent the ball from passing through and then attack. I believe that for him the fundamental aspect is that, and then he gives you a lot of freedom. He also wants us to stay compact, preventing the ball from passing through, and then to come out without taking risks in the middle. With me, as soon as I arrived, he clearly saw that I was struggling.`
He told me: “Now that you know well that you are struggling, the only thing you can do is play simple, and then little by little better things will come to you. Now you need to be more concrete.” He is like that, he gets straight to the point simply, he reassured us with his words. He speaks, and you know he has experience on his side. He reassured us in the bad moment we were going through.`
