Zonal Defending the Italian Way will give you an in-depth look at the Italian flat back four and total team defending. The book begins with an explanation of why Italian coaches prefer to play with a flat back four. It then describes how the players in the back line function together as well as how they work with the midfielders to form a solid defensive block. There is also a detailed review of how a number of modern coaches at clubs like, AS Roma, Juventus, Inter Milan and AC Milan have applied the flat back four to the various teams they’ve coached.
In addition to the background and history of the Italian coach’s approach to defending there are more than 130 diagrams with detailed explanations that will show you HOW some of Italy’s top coaches train their teams to be so defensively strong and organized. Each has a different focus and way of organizing their team. Inside you’ll find exercises from the training session of: Arrigo Sacchi, the coach of the Italian National Team during the 1994 World Cup; Marcello Lippi, the coach of the National Team in the 2006 World Cup; Fabio Capello, former coach of AC Milan and currently the England Manager as well as other Italian coaches.
