Hopefully FIGC can come up with another brilliant idea to save Serie A, maybe go from 1 non-EU player to no EU players at all.
Well believe it or not there are rumours that the FIGC is going to scrap a one-eu player and going for two non-eu spots.

What's this animosity towards FIGC? They didn't go with the non-EU rule to help the clubs, they did it to help the Azzurri.
And if in the next WC the Azzurri do better than in S.Africa and manage to pass the groups, then the 1 Non-Eu player rule was well worthy.

Seriously, a team consisted almost 100% of foreigners and players coming from non-EU countries wins the CL and you create a rule which suggests to do the opposite of what Inter did. It was obvious that FIGC didn't care about the club football with the non-EU rule and they cared only about the Azzurri.

Indirectly....the Italian NT is hurting serie A and Juve.

Oh, and not to be misunderstood, the non-EU rule certainly isn't the reason why the Italian teams will suffer a fiasco this year. Absolutely not. The reasons for that are of different nature and they came long before this stupid rule. The problem with the non-EU rule is that it pushes calcio even deeper in shit.

If the FIGC want to help the Azzurri then they need to help Juve first all the great Italian teams were mostly Juve dominated and Juve was dominating when the national team was winning

Exactly. Which is why every single Juventus fan should hate the shit out of that decrepit national team.

Seriously though, the weaker the rest of the league gets, the harder it will be for Juve to return to the top. So people do have a point with the success of other Italian teams indirectly affecting Juve.

In theory you'd have a point. Milan winning the CL in 2007, Inter winning it in 2010 and Inter dominating serie A for years should have forced Juventus to invest more, work harder and do everything possible to reach the level of its greatest rivals. But that didn't happen.
