interesting how his presidency was marked from mostly brilliant decisions to some of the worst things that happened to juventus in recent memory:
- carrying out the stadium project: brilliant
- replacing the former management with marotta and paratici: brilliant
- hiring conte (whether it was his or marotta's idea it doesn't matter): brilliant
- replacing conte with allegri: brilliant
- trying to go global with rebranding: meh
- building his european reputation via uefa/eca positions: very good
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- firing marotta: wtf
aaand every subsequent major decision/consequence ranged from bad to straight out idiotic:
- replacing marotta with tici
- signing ronaldo without a proper sustainability plan in place
- firing allegri, replacing him with sarri, then getting pirlo, then rehiring allegri
- superleague (inevitable idea, terrible implementation)
- cutting every tie with european football diplomacy and alienating almost everyone within italy
- letting paratici loose on the market
- letting the covid losses to be covered with artificial plusvalenza
such a controversial presidency. thanks for the 9 years of domination, it wasn't possible without him. and not so many thanks for the recent few disappointing years when he was an equally important protagonist.
