I think its about legacy for him, and a fair amount of ego.

Being a legend at Porto would be great, I'm sure.

However, being the manager to bring Juventus back to its pre-calciopoli glory?

You can't even compare the legendary status that he would have if he chose what was behind door #2.

I think I can see why he he'd have the ambition to coach Juventus, especially if he's given plenty of resources to work with. I know he definitely wants to work outside of Portugal.

It could be argued that it is an ideal time to take over: club is nearing rock bottom, moving to new stadium, promise of decent amount of cash.

Quite possibly yeah. And it's more of a long term project, as opposed to Porto where he may not do better than winning the EL.

Tell that to my wife.

Although she feels my pain when it comes to Juve, she doesn't feel it that much to the point where she would put a monetary value on it.

She doesn't even ask me how they do during a match. All she has to do is listen from the bedroom at my insults and laughter to get an idea on how they are doing.

Next time you are in a sports shop, get yourself a Boston Red Sox jersey ;)
Hopefully those insults turn into cheers sooner than later

I've entertained this fantasy for some time now, and I know that it's mostly wishful thinking, but being constantly in the shadow Mourinho, I've often thought that Juve would be his ideal place to carve out an anti-Mourinho image. He'd be the anti-thesis of Mouriho, they both started their careers in a similar enough way, but his football and his choice of clubs would be the opposite. Dream on...

Pinto da Costa is known as the Portuguese Moggi, they were found guilty of actual match fixing before but only had a minor points penalty and still retained the league title. The Portuguese system is even more of a joke than the Italian one, heavily manipulated by the guy.

You got it right, dude. :tup:

What I read some days ago was Marca claiming Porto's chairman had a dinner with Porto-Villarreal ref. Also, a ref from the old scandal (apito dourado) published some recordings of him from 2004. He did it this month if I'm not wrong, but nothing happened after that. Fucking portuguese system.

Btw, italian system had some recordings of Moggi by the date of the scandal? Here in Portugal we had clear proofs and the man was still absolved. :sergio:
