    Os, you should really construct your sentences better. You English is perfect, your spelling too, you speak simple English and still it's very hard to read you. Work on it :)

    Another thing that goes in Conte's favor is that he has better players than Guardiola inherited from Rijkaard. If Gurdiola could win 6 trophies in one year with the guys Rijkaard left to him, guys like Messi, Iniesta, Xavi, Henry, Eto'o, Yaya Toure, Puyol and Abidal, imagine what can Conte do...

    Antonio Conte - Manager - Siena

    I really hate it that we're even discussing this. Basing the tactics on the new coach preferences and his incompetence to play any other formation but 4-4-2 (Del Neri) is the most idiotic shit ever. "Hey, I play 4-4-2, I played that all my life. Buy me 4 new wingers!" Well guess what dumbass...

    Absolutely. Then again, can you guys imagine how big the problem is and how much in this team is rotten, from top to bottom, when guys who give minimum effort (like Motta) are always getting to play and we never see strong reaction from our coach and management about the lack of effort shown...

    Past: Present: If he can do such a change with this team too, then I accept him :D

    That's an amazing wig. He can almost convince us that it's his real hair.

    Antonio Conte - Manager - Siena

    Maybe because he knows that in Porto the moment he creates a good team, half of those players will be sold in the summer and he'll have to start all over again, while the richer Juve can allow him to create a team and use it for much longer, adding new pieces to the team from time to time...

    Antonio Conte - Manager - Siena

    I wonder if we tried at all to sign a bigger coaching name outside serie A and serie B. If we tried with van gaal and a couple more coaches, and we failed, then what we're doing now would make some sense. But I fear that we didn't try at all. That's simply the Italian mentality. Full of...

    If we ever play in B again, we should have him in mind. Until then, thank Conte for his years as a player but keep him away from our bench next year.

    Antonio Conte - Manager - Siena

    There isn't a 4-2-4 tactic (except in desperate situations when chasing a result in the last minutes). That's a 4-4-2 with attacking wingers. It's like playing 4-4-2 with Krasic and Giovinco and call it a 4-2-4.

    Not true. The coach won't be bossing Marotta by threatening to kill him or beat him. He'll be bossing him with his authority and authority is built with knowledge and success. The one who proved his knowledge and has success behind him will not let Marotta work alone. He'd demand to be included...

    It is. I can't say anything about Conte as a coach. Maybe he does have quality. He might be better than, say, Allegri who just won the scudetto. But even Allegri (if he was still a Cagliari coach now) would have been a bad choice for this Juve because a coach can not do a miracle with a bad...

    If Conte is our coach, then Marotta will be the one building the team. Conte doesn't have enough success and authority to tell the directors which players to buy and succeed in convincing Marotta. Van Gaal would have been able to do it, Deschamps would have made a clear demand that unlike the...

    Antonio Conte - Manager - Siena

    And I disagreed with that, as you know. I disagreed with that view on things, I didn't disagree that what you said might easily be true. Back then we had a shot for the 4th place and some 14-15 rounds to go, there might have been a chance to do it. Even if it was a 1% chance it should have...

    Antonio Conte - Manager - Siena

    I don't want a new manager (professional) for so many reasons, most of which having to do with not trusting the board and being afraid that they'll keep him for next year. I can't stand Del Neri and I was literally crying for DN to be sacked in January, but if he's fired tomorrow I want some...

    It changes absolutely nothing, unless it's a top coach who we want to keep for next year too. In that case a coach change might become meaningful because the new coach can work with the players we have and know what to change, who to keep, who to sacrifice.
