Apparently, crowd was chanting Conte, Conte last night.
Even if CR would get us 2nd place, and maybe Coppa, i think for him it would be the best thing to go. Personally I dont think that anyone would do better considering all our injuries, and i also think that we will not get 3-4 top players for next season, so frustration will be even bigger.
I also think Conte will do worse than CR

1.) I don't think Conte fits the bill for me. Hard to believe he would "knock the head" of players that played with him, even worse, players that pushed him on the bench in his late Juve days. Hard to believe for me, that he would be the guys with the character that is needed.
2.) Mourinho`s are not found on the street. This guy grew up being a coach. He was scouting opponents for his dad when he was 14....
3.) Maybe there are managers, who have unexpected success with their teams at the moment, but nobody can tell me, that any available coach would have had more success with this squad. Best example for me is Le Guen. Everybody, even me, was a big fan of his back at the Lyon days, and I remember people wanting him at Juve, but look what he has won in the last years....
As simple as it is, the situation is not as bad, as it looks, and at the moment, there are no better options.

I think less idiots at the back could be good for us
I think Conte's love for the club would go beyond his love for his old friends, regardless we will just have to wait and see what happens with this...
Our takes on the current situation are never going to co-incide, i feel with a better manager who has personality and testicles we would be performing a lot better and we would be a lot closer to inter. I think people like gasperini, mancini etc fall into that category but you disagree and that is fine.
I've just thought of the perfect candidate to take over the Juve hotseat for next season, he wouldn't take any shit!!!:
Totally agree, Os. I was having this discussion the other day, with a couple of people, after Vinman pointed out some available managers with better credentials than Ranieri. I wasn't even advocating that we hire Rijkaard as coach, just pointing out that his track record is certainly better that Claudio's in terms of trophies and that 3 major trophies in 2 years has to be respected regardless of the quality the manager has at his disposal.
I also felt it necessary to point out multiple times that he made critical subs in a CL final (the biggest possible stage of club football) when his team was behind with less than 20 minutes to go... of the two late subs he made, Larsson ended up assisting on both goals and Beletti scored the winner. It was an absolutely brilliant piece of player management, which I certainly feel is one of Ranieri's major weaknesses.
Conte is not a bad choice at all. It isn't the same case as Alan Shearer for Newcastle as this guy certainly has managerial experience and proved some of his worth. In about 2 years he has managed to get Bari from a team struggling at Serie B to a team that will inevitably fight at Serie A next year.
But I think it is still too early to safely decide and would still be considered a gamble if we sign him this season. To be honest the best decision we can take now is to sign another coach other than Conte. Gasperini is a good choice and there are others too. (although any coach is better than Ranieri)
But we should definitely consider Conte for the future, especially as a Plan B if our next coach does a Ranierata.
