Dossena: No Catenaccio At Anfield
Liverpool's new signing from Udinese, Andrea Dossena, has told the
club's fans they needn't fear an outbreak of Italian-style catenaccio defence next season.
Italian football sets the benchmark by which defensive excellence is measured, with the catenaccio
blanket-style defence perfected in the 1960s as the bedrock of the 1-0 win and forever associated
with Serie A, even though things have evolved and been refined since then.
