“First of all we are focused only on the next game, which is the Coppa Italia against Bologna on Thursday. That is an important objective for this season. After that, we will think about Roma.”
I don't think Conte would have been as ready as he is now Gray. As for Deschamps staying? Well I expect we would have been very successful. Apparently this was the first half time where Conte didn't yell at everyone.
DD would impose quality over quantity, build upon our remaining champions add a few more, scrap the Nationalism favorism that kept us back so much,

O boy, we would be champions by now, playing in Europe, recover most of our loses, having a new generation of champions.

If Prandelli is smart he will play Chiello (LB) - Bonucci - Barzagli at the Euros. They will be even more solid together by then (unless of course, we get Hummels or a LB in Jan. :lick.
