I just want a change of manager, Conte is not ideal in my opinion because he's still not really proved it in Europe yet although he only had 2 seasons here so maybe a bit harsh

If I have to choose between Conte or Allegri I would pick Conte because I just want Allegri to go as I can't stand watching us play anymore

Getting Conte back is sheer madness! I would rather keep Allegri :(
I might want someone more flashy who could get us move the ball around better but I actually rate Conte very high!
I think he will make our players bleed on the field and make them defend better.
I also think that he will use Dybala better and its not because Conte is such a great manager but because Dybala is dying for another manager to set him up better!
I still dont know if it is the Dybala we want but certainly better than this version.
IMO Conte>Allegri for us right now but I would happily skip both for Guardiola and Hag

I genuinely think we've been cursed to go after the same manager types again and again until football ceases to exist

Having said that, this is like sitting on a 17 at blackjack. You're definitely not gonna win with what you have, but you'll probably be fucked with what you get anyway. So I guess I'll take Conte and hope he has a point to prove than another season of Allegri doing the same shit.

I don't remember half as many injuries under Conte & friends so that alone is enough for me to be ok with this

Unfortunately, as much as I love Conte IMO he's not the right fit currently. He was the perfect manager when he took over. He brought back the hunger, desire and killer instinct that had disappeared after finishing 7th two seasons in a row. When he left I was upset, but it proved to be right. Tactically, he's not good enough at the top of Europe. I didn't want Max, but he proved that he was the right man for the Job at the time. But I think he should've gone at the end of last season. We have a team full of big names and ego's, we need someone with a track record who they will respect. Conte will scare them, but they won't respect him.

The club probably made a mistake not moving on Zidane when he was available and have paid the price. I'm not sure who the right person for the job is. Maybe Didier Deschamps, who knows???

#Conte : priority #Juventus , will wait for black and white before making final decisions. #Roma on the upside, likes the team and met the Giallorossi, stand by with #Inter#calciomercato

#Conte : 'In June I return to the bench. I choose the project, not the budget '

Would set us back 5 years (and not in a good way). Did people actually forget how one-dimensional his football was? Conte was all about grinding results and defending leads, even more so than Allegri. We could forget about any European success with this guy as a coach.
His first years were anything but one-dimensional we played some nice football. I wouldn't mind him for one season only but that's all, which is hardly a justification to have him i guess.

Conte wouldn't be a step back, more like a sidestep, but since we regressed heavily this season despite improving the quality of the team it could be a necessary sidestep if we don't find a more suitable option. So far he has overperformed at each team he has been in, but since our goal is pretty much the CL, he hasn't been very good in those matches so far in his career. He would reinstill some grinta into the midfield and a force us to play a more heavy press, plus probably introduce a change of formation which I feel we need. Contes 3-4-3 could work amazingly with our set of players if we manage to sign a new DM.
