In einem Interview , das Borna Sosa dem englischsprachigen Portal Bundesliga.com/Sky gegeben hat (das im Übrigen auch sonst sehr lesenswert ist), beschreibt er Matarazzo wie folgt:
"Pellegrino Matarazzo is like a father and a coach"
[...] As a coach, the really good thing that he has is this spirit for winning, this spirit that he's not afraid to try something against good opponents. Against every opponent. He's bleeding in young players and this is really important in modern football. I personally and everybody in the world has seen a million times that some clubs don't succeed because they think some players who played well three years ago will still play well. This is not the way it is in football. He is always looking at the situation in the moment. This is really important because the players who are playing best in that moment should play. He always brings us a positive spirit, he tries to give us this feeling that whatever happens, play on… This is what he has been trying to teach us in the last few years and I think he has succeeded. This is now, for me as a player, a big plus in my career because I always look at the positives. Even when we lose the game, I try to only take the positives out of it, from every training session, from everything.
One of the most important things for me about him is that he understands the human, not only in a footballing way but also out of football… He understands there is a life next to football. He presented this to us and now it's easy for us because we know when we work, we work. When we don't work, we can have fun. This is really important for us and for me personally as well. He's like a father to you and like a coach to you. You can speak to him about everything, and he will help you in any way he can. This is something we appreciate as a team, and we try to give everything every day in training. This is a really good thing about him.
