Malfredi, and he fits the Bologna to Juve part, but Espectro was talking about someone who made Bologna play great football in his time there, and looking at the standings from those seasons, I'm not sure it was the case. P.S: I think he means Del Neri, but confused Sampdoria and Bologna.

No idea :( I wasn't kidding when I said here some time ago that I played futsal with him in high school. We grew up in the same place and he's a year older than me. I obviously want him to join us and succeed. But I really can't predict how he'd do here. He has the character. He left home at 20...

There are at least ten cases where a Serb/Croat player plays a major role under a Croat/Serb coach. Especially in basketball and some other sports. And players from ex-Yu are best friends in teams, no matter if they're Croats, Bosnians, Serbs, Montenegrin, Macedonian or Slovenian. A pro like...

Sure, with two Serbs in the team, bring a Croat to be their manager. The last time something similar happened (earlier this year, when Juve faced Torino), Torino's coach Juric replaced his player Radonjic after only 14 minutes.

I don't mean that they will oppose him with words and arguments. I mean that the majority of our players don't have the characteristics to play a completely different style. And some, like Cuadrado for example, don't have the legs for that. The names of Fagioli, Iling and Rovella are being...

Yes, indeed. We were so dominant and we went to the CL final that year, that I completely forgot what was happening behind us on the standings.

I understand, and I agree. However, I don't believe a 64-year-old manager would have the patience to provide us with that, and even if he does, I doubt he'll be allowed to do so. The characteristics of most of our players are the opposite of what Spalletti expects from his players. The...

Wasn't that Rudi Garcia?

I believe we don't have the players for that. It will take him ages to create a squad capable of playing like his Roma or Napoli (but with better players which Juve should be able to buy), and it's Spalletti who doesn't have the time. We will most probably witness two disastrous years with...

Palladino is a very pleasant surprise. I admit that I didn't expect him to do this well as a manger, or to become a manager at all. He had amazing technique as a football player. Excellent talent. But he never made it big as a footballer, either because he was too lazy, or because he wasn't...

For half a year or so, I played futsal with Igor Tudor when we were in our mid-teens. I wasn't that good, but neither was he. Yet he made it at the top level and here I am talking about him in a football forum. I don't regret it tho because those who were better than both me and Tudor ended up...
