The Inter Miami coach discussed getting ready for the upcoming campaign
Gerardo Martino, the head coach of Inter Miami, has revealed his strategic approach for the upcoming season, emphasizing the need to build a cohesive team rather than relying solely on individual brilliance. Martino acknowledges that the team’s success will hinge on unlocking the full potential of their star player, Lionel Messi.
“We need to devise playing styles that allow our players, especially Leo, to showcase their best abilities. However, it’s not just about individual improvements. We’ve reached a point where opponents are less surprised, our ball movement has slowed down, and rivals can predict and counter our strategies.
Now, the focus is on creating a unified team, uncovering its optimal version through the collective efforts of all players. My attention is on how we can strategically position Messi within the team, connecting him with teammates, all while keeping our game plan unpredictable to opponents,” Martino emphasized.
With the MLS season set to kick off at the end of February, anticipation is high. The demand for tickets for the second-round match between Galaxy and Inter Miami is evident, as they sold out in an impressive six minutes. The stage is set for an exciting season, and Martino’s tactical insights suggest a commitment to both individual brilliance and a collaborative team effort.
