With the ones in charge right now I would be happy with anyone who isn't a major risk like Ferrara was or someoen like Conte would be.

Although I would love to have Blanc.

I like the look of Blanc's Bordeaux. If eh can get Juve to play like that...

Other than him, I'm cool with Benitez, Pellegrini, Gasperini, Prandelli. In that order.

What do you mean by successful? Making the 4th/5th richest team ending up 4th and now being 11th in the league?

No denying that he took over a Fiorentina who just came from serie B and made them a top 4 team, but with the money provided to him, no-one expected anything less than top 4 or top 5.
For Fiorentina and for the expectations there he was very good, but if we measure success by fulfilling the minimum expectations, then lots of other coaches have been successful, including those who managed to keep Siena out of relegation in these last 5-6 years.
Ok well you can look at success in different ways, especially as he is building for longer term. I also think it would be an added advantage to have a coach with Serie A coaching experience. I'm not averse to Blanc, but always worry about that factor.

Blanc himself is hardly scrapping around with change either, doesn't spend as much as Lyon but also doesn't make as much. Needless to say he has done a great job at Bordeaux though.

Prandelli is indeed overrated here. He's yet to prove a loooooooooot. I can't believe people dare to compare him with Benitez. Maybe Prandelli will one day coach a big team and do good with it. But until he does it, he's just a 52 year old who never won anything in his career. Just 4 years younger than one other coach ,who never won anything in his life, was in 2007.

On the positive side, he's one of the rare Italian coaches who doesn't prefer the typical Italian style of football. His 4-2-3-1 that transforms to 4-4-2 or even 4-3-3 and 4-4-1-1 when defending, with speed and lots of ball movement, is refreshing in this league. Maybe that's why he's doing so well in Europe this year.

It's true he shouldn't be compared to Benitez, at some point he will need a chance at a big team and win something big to be classed at that level.

Not taking much away from blanc, his had it quite easy with a pretty eye catching yet unproven side.
What is unproven about his side? He won the French league from Lyon who has been dominating it for years. Now tell me that Lyon is not a decent football team.
