Ignazio Abate, the head coach of Torino, has expressed increasing excitement since taking charge of the team, noting that the atmosphere within the club gives him the energy and motivation to deliver his best.
He said in his interview with 'Sky Sports': "I need this warmth that I find here, and the adrenaline and pressure that bring out the best in me."
Abate praised the team's collective development, emphasizing that what pleases him most is seeing the players' unity grow day by day.
The change in mentality and player roster needed some time, but the group is accelerating the development process in the best possible way. The break came at a suitable time to improve physical condition, despite a large number of players leaving to join their national teams.
The Italian coach discussed his tactical philosophy, emphasizing that he always demands his players to play with intensity, aggression, and great courage when in possession of the ball.
He added that courage must be accompanied by humility, especially when it comes to defending behind the ball, emphasizing that working with humility and dedication should go hand in hand with great ambition.
Abati concluded his remarks by stressing the importance of the human aspect in his relationship with the players, stating that he enjoys the journey and seeks to build strong human connections with the group.
The results give the team more agility and confidence, helping to absorb ideas quickly. However, he emphasized that the current goal is to improve consistency during matches and make Torino more dangerous and clear in their style of play.
