Carlo Ancelotti

I had Zola in that period.

And at the beginning, I was playing 4-4-2.

I was not playing with number 10 in that period.

So the first game of the season, I tried to put him on the right side, like a winger.

He didn't like a lot.

He did well, in my opinion, but...

He would like to play in the middle.

And so having Crisp and Chiesa in front, I found a space for him on the right side that he was not so happy.

At the same time, he had an opportunity to go to Chelsea.

And in January market, I think he chose to go there and I left him to go.

Yeah, with Zidane, I tried to change my idea about the system.

I think that Zidane was the first player that gave me the possibility to change the system, to play in a different way.

And so when I had Zidane, I played the first year in Juventus, I played with the system 3-4-1-2, having Del Piero inside in front, Zidane a little bit behind.

And the second year, I played with the back four, but keeping in front two strikers and one number 10 like Zidane.

Zidane...

changed my idea about football I was so focused before Juventus in 4-4-2 and after that with Zidane I changed I wanted to put him in the best position for him to let him more comfortable on the pitch

In my player career I had Lidl that was one of the first managers that played in zone but it was not 4-4-2 it was back four

But in midfield, we didn't have a specific position.

And after that, I had Ericsson in Rome, and he played 4-4-2, and Sacchi in Milan.

So I started training, having the idea to play 4-4-2.
