The problem DD had is that his coaching/managing resume was not nearly as extensive as Ranieri's. Yes, DD had very good results with Monaco, but he has only won one trophy, the Cadetti with Juve. Ranieri comes with 20 years of coaching experience, a Supercoppa, a Coppa Italia, and European Super Cup, as well as a history of setting teams up for success and most recently, saving Parma from assured relegation. Far from an elite coaching record, but still a more impressive resume and more impressive former employers.
I doubt Ranieri would have signed for Juve without some assurances, one being indirect, but binding control over player transactions. He had to have seen what happened to DD (probably even talked to him personally) and made those demands... especially seeing as in Chelsea and Valencia, he had a lot of input.
For that reason, I have hopes that if Secco is offering Giovinco, Ranieri is shining his boot to kick Secco's ass with.
I wish that was true, but the sings demonstrated it isnt, i am not a DD fan,
actually i was one of his big critics here, if you were here earlier you wouldnt have known, i dont want to defend his value as a coach, but i do respect him as a player and as a man.
Our board was pleased with his work,initially, he did his work!
CR wasnt the upgrade we were expecting, the experienced coach who would guarantee success by his sheer presence.Someone who would guide our club to its former glory/successes.
The reason we chose him involved some things our owners wouldnt prefer to publically admit. We have discussed this matter extensively about one year ago,
when you first joined here,
unfortunately, the salary and his willing to comply with the board choices were some important factors that determined the final choice in our coach short list.
Factors that should fit in our usual approach to find the right man and factors that should be worthless when our future and maybe even our entire existence as a FC are threatened.Such an important decision should ask for maximum sacrifices and shouldnt be an obstacle for a better coach, NOT at this moment!
These were not they only reasons, but they played their role to the selection of our coach and this proves how important they are for the ones in charge!
CR was not in a position to ask for more power than DD had,
but he is a smart man and i hope that he can work his way to become more influent.
Certainly his opinion is more valuable than DD's and he is probably the reason we got Sissoko and Secco reconsidered for the Giovinco case.
As long as there are no conflicts of interest, then Secco will try and make CR's will. But there is no doubt who the real boss is here.Our owners really trust Secco will work for Juve's interests and they afraid to replace him with a better manager just because they are afraid they wont find anyone else as loyal as Secco.
CR is smart enough not to oppose any threat and make some grave abjections, to Secco's will and our owners orders.
However, this is a positive point that proves that there are forces within our team that want Giovinco back and they tolerate/support CR's comments/efforts to bring him back.
This is the only thing that puts a smile in my face and i hope that, it will be proved to be decisive and determine the final outcome.
I dont know who impose us to buy Amauri and insist on him so much...
Shyne has a point there, certainly the media will do their best to dramatize the situation and create more interest.
But the direct quotes of players, directors, managers, presidents, etc
demonstrate, that this is not just a made up story, there is a real interest here and some serious complications!
These managers are not in a position to create the type of smokescreens Moggi used to create, this is just the maximum they can do!
They are vulnerable to manipulation and the press'es pressure proved enough, to dominate us for once!
There is little we can do for that, i dont think that Secco's accident was just a coincidence, Milan owned Blanc's big mouth and Secco's work at this very moment!
The press is a part of the game in mercato and our transfer's director is no longer in a position to control it!
