Ciro Ferrara (40 Viewers)

[Showdown25]

I don't really like the idea of installing Conte over Ferrera. Ciro has done a good job in one game which isn't enough to judge at this point. But, he obviously has the backing of the team, and he can motivate them, not to mention they are motivated to play for him.

I think he should be given a chance before we gamble on another unproven coach. He knows the youth setup very well and would probably do a better job of incorporating the youngsters into the current squad.

oh come on this is not a charity here. Ferrara knows himself he was brought here to fill the blank for two weeks, I doubt anyone asked him to prove himself in these two matches, and he was very aware that he wasn't going to stay for next season before signing that contract..

Well, I guess looking on the bright side if Conte is the coach next season, and Ferrara goes back to the youth sides then communication between two will be excellent and perhaps Conte will be more willing to give Juve's future more chances in the first team than ranieri ever did.

Diego would get slaughtered in the middle. Poor Momo should that happen


@Ahmed> I agree, I too wish Ciro would stay. He has a lot of class, if Conte does come I hope they have a great relationship between youngsters playing in the first team and what not.

Looks like a done deal and Antonio is our Next Coach...

it'll be interesting.

 

[Hust]

Well it's been real Ciro...keep doing the good things with the youth, hopefully we will acquire a coach that uses what you help produce for a change.

Regardless, it isn't about being a charity or not. You already have one inexperienced coach, why in the hell would you bring one who is just as inexperienced to replace him? No logic, no sense... don't really know what to say about that. Conte isn't proven and he isn't our savior . If we replace Ferrara it should NOT be with Conte but someone more experienced. They both played for the club so that shouldn't be the deciding factor.

Fact of the matter is, if we are going to have an inexperienced, young coach then we may as well stick with the one we currently have instead of having to compensate Bari for another one who may not even work out or be able to hack it at the top level.

So in conclusion, it would be absolute bollocks to install Conte because he has just about as much experience in coaching as Ferrara. Plus we'd have to pay to get him here. I'd prefer to see someone with more experience and know how if we do replace Ferrara.

I have my doubts but you can not say with any certainty that you know for a fact that Conte is not gonna be great here just because he does not have that much experience. If we do well on the mercato with signings like Diego, Conte brings Guberti, now Cannavaro is back and Criscito comes back with a RB purchase...Conte is going to have one hell of a good team to work with.

I think what "showdown" said is true. If we're going for an inexperience coach then why not just keep Ferrara instead of getting Conte.

Personaly i've always thought of Ferrara as a leader with a more charismatic personlity. I never thought the same about Conte (great player though). Not saying that this alone decides if a guy will succeed or not as a coach but i think it does help ...

 

[Hust]

Keeping Ferrara makes sense too, but I was just saying that it is hard to say that one or the other will not be our savior. It is hard to predict something like that. Either one could be immensely successful with us. That is the point I was making.

The base for Conte is 4-4-2. But once in the attacking phase, it turns into 4-2-4. The wingers (Guberti and Kamata) are very attacking, but they still come back to defend.

I understand that completely. But like I said to replace one inexperienced manager with another that we would have to pay for makes no sense at all. If we are going for a young juventino we may as well keep Ferrara for the time being. But if we are going to bring in someone else we should at least try for Spalletti since he might be without a club come seasons end.

Not too reassuring IMO...

Ferrara: It's me or Conte
Thursday 28 May, 2009
Ciro Ferrara admits he cannot say who will be on the Juventus bench next season, “but as far as I can tell it’s a battle between me and Antonio Conte.”

The former defender and current co-ordinator for the youth sector was appointed caretaker manager last week when Claudio Ranieri was fired.

He won his debut game 3-0 at Siena, securing their spot in the Champions League next season, but it remains to be seen whether he will keep the job permanently.

“I couldn’t tell you what my chances are of remaining the Juve Coach, but in reading the newspapers as far as I can tell it’s a battle between me and Conte,” said Ferrara on Juventus Channel.

“I think it’s around 50-50. When I took on this role, I did so with pleasure and the knowledge I could continue or not.

“I try to take it one day at a time and therefore have no difficulty in accepting the possibility a new Coach could arrive.”

There are reports that Ferrara could quit the club if he is not given the job permanently, leaving his duties with the youth sector.

“That is not true, I have another year of my contract as the co-ordinator of the youth academy. Clearly I would like to be a Coach, but I have not yet decided if I will leave Juve.”

Ferrara and current Bari boss Conte were teammates in the successful Bianconeri side of the 1990s and President Giovanni Cobolli Gigli hinted it was indeed a decision between these two men.

“For the moment we are leaning towards young Coaches, unless of course something remarkable emerges next week.”

Youth coach yeah?

One would wonder what kind of coach we would have today in DD if we kept him for the past two years... when DD joined us he already had a better coaching experience compared to today's Ferrara and Conte with 1 year in Serie B and 2 other in Serie A his experience would be the last thing we need to worry about...

 

[Elvin]

Ciro over Conte for me. I feel like Antonio might have some ego problems, Ciro is more calm, cool and rational. I might be wrong tho.

I understand that completely. But like I said to replace one inexperienced manager with another that we would have to pay for makes no sense at all. If we are going for a young juventino we may as well keep Ferrara for the time being. But if we are going to bring in someone else we should at least try for Spalletti since he might be without a club come seasons end.

I see what you mean, but i don´t really get your point. What difference does it make if we go on with another young (unexperienced) coach ( first i need to tell that i prefer an experienced Coach) ? I mean, Ciro will not have this big influence to the team in this 2 or 3 weeks, that with a new Coach everything will be turned upsidedown. It doesn´t matter if it´s gonna be an experienced (like Spalletti) or (new) unexperienced Coach - the whole team needs to start from zero, so there won´t be any big changes, i think.

 

[swag]

Nothing against Conte. All due respect and all. But Ciro has always won my heart.

 

[BIG DADDY!!!]

“For the moment we are leaning towards young Coaches, unless of course something remarkable emerges next week.”

Could he mean if Spalletti becomes available?
