Wow. All due props to him. But surprising, given his lack of experience. (Though that didn't stop Klinsmann...)

Donadoni named Italy boss
Thursday 13 July, 2006
Roberto Donadoni is the new Coach of world champions Italy after the departure of boss Marcello Lippi last night.
The 1990 and 1994 World Cup player was in pole position to succeed the Viareggino and he’s been confirmed in the role this evening.
Donadoni, born in 1963, started his playing career at Atalanta before a highly successful move to Milan where he became one of Italy’s best ever wide-midfielders.
The Bergamo-born ace, who also enjoyed a spell in the MLS with New York Metrostars, took up coaching in 2001-02 when he was named as Lecco boss.
His impressive spell with the minnows saw him win the Livorno job where he caught the eye and subsequently joined Genoa.
However, his Marassi stint lasted for just three games as he was quickly sacked by fiery President Enrico Preziosi.
Donadoni returned to Livorno during the 2004-05 campaign where he kept the Amaranto in Serie A after their struggles under axed tactician Franco Colomba.
Yet he left the Tuscan outfit in sensational circumstances last term when despite being as high as sixth in the table, he quit after being publicly criticised by chief Aldo Spinelli.
Donadoni is thought to have signed a two-year contract, even if that has yet to be confirmed, and will be presented to the media on Tuesday in Rome.

god not donadoni, the man who caused the paranoia of italy missing penalties, i dont think he will succeed, despite the fact he hasnt coached milan he's still a milanista and like sacchi and c. maldini, i cant see him succeeding, tho i know sacchi got us to the 94 wc, we came only 2nd. personally i wud of given it to gentile, i rate him highly as a coach and at this period of transistion, he wud know the players best.
