He has found a set-up where he can talk to great champions, who have won a lot of trophies and achieved a lot. There comes a time when you have to be brave enough to accept other people&rsquo;s advice because the result becomes paramount. We have asked him to do certain things, and at this moment in time, he is doing them.&rdquo; Meanwhile, Prandelli has dismissed the growing allegation that Spain are a boring team. &ldquo;That assessment comes from the fact the same side has always been winning. I don&rsquo;t think they are boring in any way, shape or form.&rdquo; Prandelli also revealed Italy had not arrived in Kiev from their Krakow base until 3am.
