    Sure, but he was still an important player for Inter in Italy

    Gonna take a while to adjust to former Inter star being a Juve manager, has it ever happened before?

    I think what we need most right now is to restructure the squad to a more financially healthy model and stop overpaying players. On paper we have more revenue than anyone in Serie A, on pitch we're not in the Scudetto race for 4 seasons in a row now. Knowing what Conte usually requests - bunch...

    Imo in times like these we need to rely on our glorious past and status to get a promising manager thats okay with the limited funds and has ambition to return the club to its rightful place. Too bad we hardly have anyone in the mgmt to sell that idea though, the top mgmt is Guintoli, Elkann and...

    Someone like Klopp has to be courted and seduced, bags of money wont be appealing when all it does is create pressure, the very thing he's running from. Too bad we only have boring people in charge and no footie legends

    I agree with the comparison with Fiorentina, Id say the squads are comparable. Possibly with Atalanta as well. Lazio definitely is below Juve, Napoli, Inter, Milan and Roma when it comes to resources. Torino are a lot more shit though :D

    Tbh I don't see a single reason why we'd hire either, so it's probably not going to happen. Just wanted to say that for me almost anything trumps Allegri staying.

    I'd watch Sarri's and Gattuso's Juve. I don't think either has a high chances of working out, Sarri is stuck in the past with his ideas and Gattuso has been very very inconsistent in his coaching career. On the surface level I don't see why his experience with Valencia warrants a promotion to a...

    This. It was a good season for Lazio, they did well in the most important competition, but the final placing in the table is a bit misleading. The season they seriously challenged for the Scudetto against Sarri's Juve and Conte's Inter was definitely peak Lazio since I don't know how long. Even...

    Tbh hardly anythigng can be worse than Allegri's 2nd stint, whatever comes it'll be better than this shit. If its a 50-50 choice between Allegri and Conte or Allegri or Bielsa or Serse Cosmi or whoever, there're not many options worse than keeping Max for me.

    I agree on their transfers being more sensible, imo their squad matches their financial capabilities and they should be competing at the level of Atalanta and Lazio. If Italiano is responsible for the transfer strategy I'd consider to bring him in an appropriate role, however as a coach the...

    How has Italiano's Fiorentina punched above their weight? Theyre doing worse than they should be if you're asking me. de Zerbi's Sass didnt do much punching either. In Serie A imo there are 2 coaches that stand out consistently, considering the financial power of their teams - Juric and of...

    My thinking was that he knew the environment, knew the staff and club inside out and how they functioned during the successful years, had worked with some of the experienced players + he gave that interview on Pirlo, saying what are some of the mistakes that needed correcting and that he'd have...

    I didnt mind Allegri back, thinking he'd steady the ship. Plenty of other users thought the same or even expected more than just steadying the ship. I think we all need to take a reality check and in hindsight admit that the guys that foresaw Max sucking have superior knowledge and feel. Pls...

    I'm inclined to agree that most of them seem to be overvalued. Still, I didnt view his Sass achievements as smth special at the time, he did a super solid job for sure, but nothing remarkable. No idea on how he's doing in the EPL

    with Sass 2018-2021 he finished 11th with 43 points, 8th with 51 points and 8th with 62 points, so a clear upwards trend. what worries me is the amount of highly valued players in those Sassuolo teams he coached - Demiral, Lirola, Sensi, Boga, Traore, Locatelli, Scamacca, Raspadori and of course...

    Yeah, tbh I think Conte v1 is good enough for Juve, I just think its a longshot with the likes of Grosso, Palladino etc. We should pick a slightly more seasoned coach

    I'm not saying he's good or bad. I'm saying its a shot in the dark given his lack of Serie A experience, one we shouldnt take.

    Grosso currently has coached 3 games in Serie A, all three for Brescia, all three losses, 0 goals scored, 10 conceded. Just like for players, there's levels to this, Serie B =/= Serie A, he could be the next Conte or he's the next Pippo Inzaghi, which isnt a bad thing, but not exactly Juve...
