Genoa manager Andrea Mandorlini had an anecdote from his time at Inter to describe his reinvention of Armando Izzo: “Once when I was at Inter, Giovanni Trapattoni put me in the number 10 role and I said, ‘Mister, do we want to make people laugh at the San Siro?’, But he was right: a player must be universal. And Izzo has the qualities.”
