Didn't Blanc participate in the mercato? Even giving the ok to Secco's picks would get him fired IMO. You can't give carte blanche to ALESSIO SECCO. You need to know a thing or 2 about football if you're Blanc.
I thought that Blanc took some part in negotiations, but it was still primarily Secco/Ranieri determining strategy.

That's my problem with Blanc: I don't think he understands football. I believe him to be a sound businessman, but that isn't really enough.

Don't get me wrong on Blanc, I didn't say he was any good, just the least bad.

Its more of issue of being the least incompetent. Blanc is clearly a businessman and not a sporting man. Teams should have guys like him around in some capacity. However, if you have a guy like Blanc, it is absolutely essential to have a strong Sporting Director. As far as I could tell, Blanc simply undertook negotiations and completed plans that were put in place by Ranieri/Secco.

I think they got it into their heads that Secco actually learned something from Moggi.

They also got it into their heads that Ranieri is a top tier coach, because he happened to muddle in good teams before they became great.

Exorcise those demons, put in some quality football minds, and having Gigli and Blanc will be fine.

I dont know if it's all Secco fault..

Juve was talking with Xabi, so there must be a person who had the idea to bring Xabi, but if Ranieri doesnt want Xabi, what can Secco do? Probably Blanc supported Ranieri in this case and ....

Also, Secco brought some good players. And I remember an article in Tuttosport with all the summer transfers over the years... And every year there were TOP players and BAD players...

It's hard to make 3 or 4 TOP transfers...

I prefer to kick out Ranieri and Blanc and keep Secco, with Marotta (Sampdoria) and Prandelli..

Plz god No !! If you want to fix a problem then fix the whole thing. Send ranieri and secco out of the club and get new people in their place. If it was my choice then i would kick cobolli gigli out with them too....

I can well understand not doing anything in January.

We have done well so far and have Buffon, Trez, Zanetti, Camo, etc. to return.

According to the Italian daily Gazzetta dello Sport, Juventus will renew the contract of their director of sports Alessio Secco.

The Bianconeri want to do so as Secco is wanted by various other clubs, especially in Spain, even though he has always declared that he wants to remain in Turin.

:wth:

O well, that shouldnt surprise us, the new Juve has been shaping up 2 years from now and this season really confirmed our fears, we have to dismiss our hopes of ever seeing any improvements on some specific parts of our team...
at least in the near future...
