In Allegri We Trust

Hiring Allegri has many ramifications.
First, we'll get a lesser coach who is extremely hated and disrespected by all fans in Italy. Our rival fans are celebrating this hiring and all our fans are in melt down. The mocking and the meltdown in itself is not the problem. The pressure that this lesser coach is going to work under, however, is the problem.
Literally everyone ranging from media to juve and rival fans will be following him with a microscope and the man, management and squad will almost certainly suffer significantly from that enormous pressure.
Conte suffered from the pressure of having fans demand more in Europe and it reflected on our performances in europe. The lesser Allegri will have ten times the pressure. Every mistake will be exponentially exaggerated. Every loss will be labelled a crisis. Everyone is waiting for him to fail and it could very well become a self fulfilling prophecy. Allegri and the management are in for an unprecedented shit-storm now. If there was any chance allegri could do well under normal conditions, this chance is now halved to say the least. In short, we have a lesser coach that has to deal with ten times the pressure.

Second, signing allegri carries suspicious implications about our management's intentions. Let me explain why.
Allegri is a puppet. Berlusconi, Barabara and Galliani consistently jerked him around and he never took a single stand against how they tore his AC milan apart. He is spineless in that regard and I doubt he'd ever resign out of his own accord regardless of how far management corners him. He is the perfect scapegoat. Any failures will be made out to be Allegri's and he'll be sacked while any success will be credited to the management.
If either Pogba or Vidal leaves this summer then Allegri is definitely a sucker for having fallen into the same trap twice. I am worried that by Hiring allegri, management thought they could hire a guy they could tear his squad apart before rebuilding again. If thats true then expect one of our two best players to leave, get replaced by the guarins of the world and Allegri to just nod along, do his best and let his reputation suffer even further.

Brace yourself. Winter is definitely coming.
cronios 2.0. I will be sure to laugh at this post when the time comes.

Agnelli is so entrenched in taking this club to new heights and working with Allegri, Marotta, Paratici that he doesn't even have time to tend to his uni-brow.

Such dedication and devotion towards the club is priceless. I thank all gods and cult leaders that we are blessed with such divine management

You're not missing anything at all.

I think we're right where every club aims to be
Obviously we aren't where we want to be, Dru but every club has a different way of doing business. If Conte hadn't had been a little bitch about the 352 in the CL we would have made it farther and probably not having this stupid conversation.

All bow down to the great uni-brow :delpiero:

I'm glad Conte is gone. That useless f was only holding this club back from the soaring heights that management is working for us to ascend to.

I don't think we're selling either of them.

But let's say we sell Vidal in order to get Reus. Would that be wrong? I'd totally do it.
Agnelli himself said that we can't refuse a big offer for them. You can bet those big offers will come in eventually if not already, but luckily Conte was forcing them not to sell. Now that he's gone and they have yes man Allegri I'd be totally surprised if even one of them are here by the start of next season (15/16).

Reus is not half the player Vidal is, not to mention he's definitely going to want to join after seeing our best players sold to other clubs.

Makes sense

Especially since Marotta and co. have an amazing track record of signing high-caliber/priced players.

Things are looking better than ever since the day we clinched our 3rd in a row.

:rofl: Come on! Reus would definitely take us to a higher level. It's not like our midfield would die without Vidal, even our boy Pogby would start playing in his best position.

The rest of your post is pure speculation. What if we have a good CL campaign this season and win the league? I think that'd play a big part in keeping our star players. I'm sure Agnelli knows it's in his best interest to keep those players because we need the CL money.

Yeah because he always had 100M to spend.

I trust in management and their faith in Allegri.

I'm sure Allegri will make us forget about Conte rather quickly due to the impending success on the horizon

Good post.

Definitely the Allegri appointing is a very dangerous gamble...but it seems we were hand tied on this...as no experienced coach was available.

What i think, is that the board looked at him as someone , lets say "more maleable".. to not say a puppet, yet. What i mean?....just look at why the problem with Conte started. uit started because he was winning scudettos but he wanted to compete in the CL with high profile-top notch buys which we would be never able to deliver. The board had diferent ideas..and they instead were aiming for a more steady growth financially before commiting heavy dollars, but Conte had other plans..and when those plans werent fulfilled , he raged and then happened what happened yesterday.

IM pretty sure that with Allegri, things went on this lines : "Listen man...we are not going to spend like madmen because we have a financial aim for next year...we just need you to help us achieve that and serve as a bridge this season...we need you to continue winning and bring us a better run at the CL, and then, if you do good..maybe youll be able to stay. But for now... lets try to find opportunity players that you would like to use. SO please understand this."
either the management is following a gradual growth strategy (that wasnt fast enough for Conte) and couldnt find anyone but allegri to take the post at such short notice or they chose alegri to actually perform radical changes that will include the sale/retirement of key players and massive restructuring.

The pressure bit is scary though. The environment that this guy has come in is horrible.
