Ciro Ferrara (34 Viewers)

Italian coaches are not the best anymore. Prandelli and Spaletti are loosers just like Ranieri.

Spalletti would be a disaster and too similar to having Ranieri's defeated face on our sidelines. Prandelli I'm not so sure of either. Gasperini has done some great stuff at Genoa and I love his football, plus he has experience coaching at Juventus, but it's hard to say how his preferred system would work here.

So it seems that Mancini is the only Italian manager available that has somewhat of a proven record.

I heared Cesar Maldini saying several times on Aljazeera sports that the club has already made a deal with Lippi to handle the team after the world cup...and Ferrara is like preparing it for him...i mean Lippi is already having a word in the team...and if this scenario is right..you cannot sack Ferrara...and even if it happenned...you wont be able to get a "Good" coach to train the team just for the left monthes...and then quit by the end of the season

May I ask why?

Look at what the man has done since he has been there. 3 Champions League and one Uefa Cup appearance (That in itself is even more amazing considering they started the year with a 15 point deduction and brought them to 6th place)

Plus, he knows how to nurture and use young players, and his transfer record, along with Corvino, has been pretty damn impressive, you must say.

Besides, I think that he is a geniunely good guy who has the respect of his supporters and rivals alike.

He was the guy that I wanted when Deschamps was unceremoniusly shown the door.

I think his record with Fiorentina speaks for itself

 

[nabulio]

agreed, no more italian coaches for a while.

Guus Hiddink!

Guus Hiddink!

Aside from Deschamps, they haven't had a non-italian coach in almost 40 years.

oh no,we lost Sergio

 

[KB824]

oh no,we lost Sergio

You are assuming that I wouldn't want to have Hiddink here?

That is not the case at all. I'm merely pointing out that everyone is asking this orginazation to buck a long-standing trend when it comes to managerial hires.

Is this board capable of going against the grain?

 

[Holdon]

Is this board capable of going against the grain?

You could argue that they already have by hiring Ferrara. A young coach with no experience.

Are you brain damaged??


Seriously. Prandelli is a loser?? Are you for real? Take a look at what he did with Parma, and then take a look at what he has done with Fiorentina, and then please tell me why he is a loser.

 

[KB824]

I think that the reason is three-fold

#1) He was familiar with the inner workings
#2) The board had a comfort level with him
#3) He was cheap.

I don't think that it was something of a revolutionary move on their part, more like a matter of convenience

 

[Alen]

Rijkaard, Rajkard, Raycard, Rightcock, same really.

He's an average coach, one of those who should be avoided.

I really don't have an opinion about his coaching abilities. I'm taking your word on this.

But I must add that a guy who played for Ajax, Barcelona and Milan and who comes from the Dutch football school, surely knows a thing or two about the football you wish Juve could play.

“The next few games won't change our project, we will stick to it,” said the patron.

“I saw my boys really mad. This hunger and rage can be turned into great results.

“Many big clubs have been suffering from a deep crisis. That's the way football works but we will get out of this tunnel.”

- Jean Claude Blanc

FUCK, I guess they are sticking with Ciro.

They don't really have much of a choice, at least for the remainder of the season

No titles, and chokes in almost all big games that matter. His team is inconsistent.

And no, i'm not braindamaged (I hope) you sanamabish.

He was one hell of a player, no doubt about that, but I don't like his coaching abilities. He could be a bit better version than Spalletti and I was cheering for Milan to get him when they needed a coach. I've never really been impressed. He won La Liga and CL but with that team I give him 10% credit.

What is it that you don't like about his coaching abilities?
I'm seriously asking because I really have no idea about him as a coach. The only thing I know is that he led a super talented Barca team to the CL, but I didn't pay much attention to his style.

All I'm saying is that, even if it doesn't have to be Rijkaard, someone who went through the Ajax, Barca and Milan school, will have to be too dumb not to know how to implement that knowledge.
Maybe such a revolution is needed in the Italian teams? Different style, and even more, the style that brings success in Europe.

He coaches for Fiorentina. Your "No titles" argument would hold water if he were the coach of Juve, Inter, Milan, or one of the European powers, but Fiorentina is not a European power.

But I'll tell you this. That team is a lot better ever since he came on board. And how exactly is a 4th place,6th place (with a 15 point deduction), 4th place, 4th place, and now currently in 4th place finish "inconsistent"? Along with 3 CL qualifications and a UEFA Cup semifinal that Christian Vieri happen to choke during the penalty kicks?

And also, let's not disregard his eye for young talent and reclamation projects, such as Jovetic, Vargas, Melo, Gilardino and Mutu

 

[Bjerknes]

May I ask why?

His teams seem to be inconsistent and some of his decisions haven't made sense to me. Prandelli is certainly better than most Italian managers though.

Who would you take? Prandelli or Hiddink?
