Marottas reputation was even worse than Giuntoli, if anything is hiring Marotta was pretty random but he turned out to be gold. Bit of a hit and miss, I don't blame the board for hiring him, Giuntoli did really well, brought in some great players at Napoli, Kvara, min ho, osimhen etc. Deserves the credit, however he is not made for us, I think we need someone who aligns with our values but most of all someone that brings in leaders, or players with leadership qualities. Marotta did that in his first season alone, brought in bonucci and barzagli. Sadly finding a good sporting director is not easy, with that said Giuntoli still needs to go, I'm not even sure who would be the best choice. As for the board going? Only a scandal can make that happen.
