They are the same, really? How? Also, why are we playing in the league that demoted us and set us back 10 years then?



You REALLY think an italian coach and former player, choosing to accept the highest honour and position in his country's football is WRONG or hypocritical? I understand critique when it makes sense, but this makes none whatsoever.

On an emotional level I understand that you want to coach Italy's national team. But it also means cooperating with the very people who tried to fuck over your team and yourself for years. I also think that representing your country as a player is a far bigger honour than coaching the team.

In the end it's best to accept we know very little about why he accepted. Perhaps he wanted to rub it in those people's very faces that they didn't destroy him and that he is now coaching their national team. We don't know shit.

WE DONT HAVE A CHOICE IN WHAT LEAGUE WE PLAY IN FFS (in b4 Juve should play in France) and even if we refused to play in Serie A, we'd be banned for years. Conte made the CHOICE to work for the same organisation that nearly derailed his career. Juventus could have EASILY turned their back on him and disassociated themselves with him during that timeframe, but we stood by him. And our reward? He leaves mid-season to play buddies with Tavecchio and the other slimebags at the FIGC. Also, the fact that he is coaching the NT at such a young age is retarded, he could have waited a season or so and seen what other top jobs became available, y'know, top jobs for CL winning clubs, a trophy that he sees himself winning but not at Juventus (his words)

Ah well, he's making great money from his NT job....whilst Allegri is managing our team to near-trebles, Conte is coaching the likes of Parolo, Pasqual and Eder to scrape wins against the likes of Malta and Azerbaijan . I just find it hilarious how you Conte nut-huggers just cant accept the fact that he nearly fucked over our team last season with his decision to leave us (for god knows what reason) in the middle of a pre season.

Now Im done discussing this with you and Hashim.
We are done when I say we are done, Aussieboy.

Juventus could easily have turned their back on him during the betting scandal? Well how good were we before he signed for us? Let me remind you.

7th place with Ferrara/Zaccheroni, 7th place with Andrea Agneli, Beppe Marotta, Paratici and Delneri.

What was the difference one year later? Conte. He won the Scudetto undefeated in one of the best season I have witnessed for Juve. Everything was perfect, we crushed our rivals, kicked everyone's ass. Could Juve have turned their back on him? Hell no. It was impossible.

What has Tavecchio to do with Conte accepting to work for his country? Tavecchio worked in LEGA Pro when Conte got his ban. The FIGC prosecutors work independently from the organization anyways. Conte was not banned by FIGC, he was banned by Palazzi.

Almost fucked up our team by leaving in the middle of pre season? He built a machine of soldiers and left on the first day. Even if Delneri came back he would have won the Scudetto with Conte's team.

We are seeing Juve without Conte effect and without his players and mentality now. Where are we in the standings? Please remind me.

If you think the management didn't expect Conte to leave then you are deluded. How do you explain Allegri not taking the Lazio job, the Azzurri job, and signing for Juve one day after Conte left?

What a load of nonsense.

Where was Juve before Del Piero, Lippi, Trappatoni, etc... We'll always have few rough years along the way, transition, lack of motivation, etc... but the club has always managed to get themselves out of the tight spot. We have resources and infrastructure to support our ambition. Conte is undoubtedly our legend and has fair share of credits for our success (2011-2014), but attributing it entirely to him is beyond being biased.

If you disregard Lichtsteiner, Pirlo, Barzagli, Vučinić, Vidal, brand new stadium, then yeah Conte did it all by himself.

Once again according to management themselves. Conte told them he was leaving at the end of the season and THEY told him to postpone that decision until after he returns from holiday and gets back to work hoping he would change his mind. Management are the ones that set the timing not him. Management was not shocked or surprised.

:agree:

It's the management's fault as much as it's Conte's fault. He should have insisted on leaving in May if that's what he wanted, and they shouldn't have told him to continue till pre-sesason.

I'll assume he already had 240 credits, since it's prerequisite to enroll yourself to this kind of program (4+1). 300 credits is master degree. Have one :p

I am sorry its not his fault at all. It is their job to run the club and the hiring/firing and all that kind of stuff. Its not his job. Its also their job to secure a plan B. They did and everything turned out great and no harm was done. They hoped he would change his mind after the break. That was their risk to take and their risk to mitigate (which they did by lining up allegri). They did it very well and to me thats a great success.

They didnt just let go of him (after all the successes he achieved) when he told them he was done. They tried to talk him into staying and took a risk that they mitigated by lining up allegri. That was world class management.

You can't blame Conte for leaving at that timing because that was part of management's responsibility and they planned very well for it. You can't really blame management either since they really tried to make him stay and they planned perfectly for his departure with great results. Blame assumes that they fucked up which they did not. They managed it pretty well. Nothing wrong happened for people to want to "blame" either Conte or management.

They made me stay :cry:
This is as dumb as Amauri's agent claiming that Amauri was a victim of his contract.

A degree in gender studies doesn't make you an intellectual zach

Like it or not, Juve treated Amauri badly and unprofessional.
A fat contract and 6 months of abysmal performances before we tried to offload him , but he refused cause big ass contract ?


How is that juve treating him bad and unprofessional ?

We tried to force him out of the contract WE offered him.

Didn't let him train with the first team with whom he signed the contract for, froze him out. None of the offers he received was anywhere near what he was getting at Juve. It's Juve's fault they offered him so much money.

His job was to be great striker too, didn't live up to that too. I would say it's unprofessional on his side if he is getting payed so much and not being able to bring the results he was paid for.

Actually the fault would lie solely on management for overpaying him. They were the unprofessional ones with their poor valuation and shitty sense of business.
