Bologna FC-Roma 2-2. Genoa. The stereophonic vision.

The first analysis of the match is that, even if in the specific aspect of the Dall'Ara challenge we were lucky to get the penalty in the last second of injury time, we never manage to win a "dirty" match, that is, a match where we are not completely dominant. Then when we face Genoa, we also have the possibility of taking home the 3 points with an evident dominance in the game and in the score.

Bologna is an excellent team, coached by an excellent coach like Italiano, so it was difficult but we could still win by following a couple of tricks.

Meanwhile, the problem of counterattacks. I had already raised the alarm on this aspect. It is not acceptable to suffer a counterattack while we are ahead as happened in Bologna. Ranieri also spoke about the famous "preventive" that DDR criticized us so much, that is, our players must always keep a position consistent with the offensive phase and the defensive phase.

It is the stereophonic vision of the game, which Flavio Tranquillo has spoken about so much, that is, always taking into consideration the two options of play. In the defensive phase to be ready for any choice of the opponent. In the offensive phase to be unpredictable.

The ball carrier must also always have at least two options in play. This depends on the intelligence of the ball carrier but also that of his teammates who must know how to propose themselves. As in basketball, the pivot must be able to choose between the 3-point pass and going around the defender. Like Dovbyk, he does not necessarily have to lay off (an aspect he is very good at), but also think about going around the defender, especially when he is in the opponent's area.

Stereo vision means varying the choice of play. Don't be too predictable. Varying the choice means preparing the right choice and the right choice often makes the difference between defeat and victory.

In practice, stereo vision is the basis of the game tactics. It means to predict the opponent's choice and act on what he does not expect. In some way this can work for world peace. To know what the other side really wants to achieve a win-win result for both and, equally important, to always leave room for at least two options.

Like Trump's America, it seems, it strongly wants peace in Ukraine but, at the same time, it does not want to leave Kiev at the mercy of the Russians so as to have the same peace that Russia wants, but with the guarantee that Russia will not attack Ukraine again in the future.

From this perspective, a European multinational force is an excellent compromise that allows Europe to be a leading player in the world, to begin to speak decisively about European Defence and a European army, and for Ukraine to believe more in the EU.

In this respect, the victory of the big traditional parties in Germany is essential, even though Elon Musk is heavily promoting the Alternative fur Deutschland, a neo-Nazi party and, from the latest performance of Tesla shares (Elon’s best horse), it has not been a great deal. I intend to talk more in depth about Musk in future articles.

In the last 5 days (today Monday 13 January 2025), Tesla shares have lost more than 7%. The majority of Tesla shareholders are left-wing environmentalists and do not like bullshit like support for AfD or fake news about the British Labour government.

According to the stereophonic vision, we must also take into account the (very probable) hypothesis of a great success of this far-right party which, however, either normalizes itself with a more rational thought and consequently a government alliance with the CDU or it will continue to be a pariah of German politics.

At the same time, normalizing the AFD even by simply accepting Europeanism would mean for Germany avoiding the Nazi danger that brought Europe to its knees and, especially, brought Germany to the ground.

Stereo vision is also necessary in Friday's match at the Olimpico against Vieira's Genoa.

Vieira, a former great French midfielder, with a history particularly linked to Arsenal, has given Genoa a new boost with the 4231 which then becomes 442 in the defensive phase with Thorsby as an added striker.

Here Miretti is deployed as second striker. Here in black at home against Napoli in white. Match won 2-1 by Napoli.
Badelj is usually the center of W. Here in the last match in Lecce with the white kit. You can also see that in the last matches Vieira prefers de Winter to Sabelli. Here in Lecce with the white kit.
Here Thorsby also returns to help, deployed as a midfielder, with Frendrup as the main midfielder. At right back is Norton Cuffy, who is expected to be injured.
Under construction, when Miretti plays left forward they swap positions with Martin, here too we can see how the reference midfielder is Badelj.

Miretti helps Martin also in defensive phase.

On the corners, they defend by zone. Here in Empoli with the black jersey.
The most offensive midfielder is Thorsby who can also press the goalkeeper and therefore can be more advanced than Pinamonti.

Pinamonti is the central striker. Good with both feet and in the volley game.

Thorsby is a central attacking midfielder like Perrotta. Excellent at pressing, recovering the ball. Quick in running. With great stamina. Good at offensive insertions without the ball. The wrong man in the right place or the right man in the wrong place as one of my brothers from Sud called Perrotta.

Stereo vision is a philosophical concept valid for all games, like football, like politics. Genoa is a good team that has found new strength with Vieira, but we can win. Daje Roma!
