It is true that Conte and MArotta are not in as close as they should.
MArotta has failed to get our primary targets far too many times, esp on certain positions and this has forced Conte to make huge compromises many times.
Despite the fact that Conte made it work good enough in the end, he still feels he plays with a handicap because of MArotta's incompetence.
One straight example is MArotta's inability to find a decent LB and his inability to resist signing opportunity targets for the CM and SS position in each and every transfer window.
When Conte joined us asked for a CB, two new wingers to replace kak options MArtinez and Krasic and a finisher.
We were stacked up in the midfield with a huge ammount of CMs. Because MArotta has failed again and again to get us a LB, Conte was forced to play a three man defense.
He might wanted the tactical option for a 4 man defense, to switch to a 4-3-3 or 4-2-2 for certain matches/occassion, but this tactical option is not available due to MArotta's incompetence to find a proper LB since the day he joined. Kak players like Zeglier, Peluso and whatever can be conisdered good enough as starters and while the search is limited in the peninsula only, we will never find one.
The best thing MArotta could get us is yet another pair of CMs in Asamoah and Isla, to be used as hybrid LWB and RWB, but still not eligible to be used as LBs and RBs.
So we are still suffer of the 4 man defense option.
The situation up front was unbearable, with the largest load of supportive strikers in Europe, but no finisher.
The pathetic attempts of Borriello, Bendtner and Anelka and continous failures to get any Dzeko, RVD, Higuain, really tested the huge ammount of Conte's patience!
So he demanded from our board, that our transfer department will either step up, or he will wont sign an extension.
I dont believe he really intended to leave us, but this was his best chance to try and do smth about the main issue that prevents from becoming as compeitive as we could.
And it has worked in a degree. Marotta this year managed the best mercato of his carrier.
He has signed early our priorities in the defense and the attack, of course he could better, signing Llorente a season ago and dont condemn our CL chances last year, getting the more prolific and younger than Tevez, Higuain. And get either a better than Ogbonna, but non Italian CB for all that cash, or pay less for him.
But regardless, he did good enough (apart from yet another failure in the decade long quest for the LB/LWB, for a 6th consecutive transfer window and the co own deals) job this season and our tactical options are now expanded in good measure, our finishing options now allow to hope for better luck in Europe.
Apart from the signings, there was a lot of pressure put on Marotta for his sales performance, which were horrid since the day he joined, for the common fan and maybe even Conte, who just want option avaialble, it might be much, but for the shareholders, it does matter a great deal, as they have seen far too many 25mil investments gone with the wind, provoiding no performance leaps, nor cash returns.
So Marotta really had to struggle to make a couple of decent sales as well, as the board have more say to his suit, than Conte.
Of course, everybody would officially deny such things, on the outside we need to show that we are united and eveything we do, we do with purpose and determination.
Having our coach admitting that our transfer director does not sign the players he wants and that he is wasting our budget on opportunity targets, because he can only go that offer, would hurt our iamge a great deal.
Also the morale of of our team. giacherini was a player trying really hard, we cant just publically admit, that despite his best efforts, he was too limited to succeed here, but Marotta couldnt do any better and he was desperate to find anything slightly better than Martinez to fill that slot. so Conte had to publically admit that he rates the player, he is a usefull tool and he "believes" in him.
But what would he say now, that MArotta finally got his chance to make a decent profit from one of our fillers, for the very first time with us?
That suddenly he doesnt rate the player anymore, he doesnt believe in him, he doesnt appreciate his efforts?
The coach works with these players, even if he knows about their limitations, he must show them some respect and ambition them, in order to get the best out of them.
This is how Conte have managed his epic first title with us.
He cant let MAtri, Giacche, heck even boriello knowing that he doesnt really rate them and that he knows that we cant really win the CL, because of their limitations...
What Bucchioni says was a certainty at the begining of this mercato, but we can only make guesses if it still is now.
As long as both of them are our employers, we will never know officially, only if one of them leaves, he will reveal what his true thoughts were...

I agree Marotta has failed to sign a LB which is not good enough. They are not really that expensive yet we cant land a decent one. I hope we get Zunniga on a free next season since we didn't get him this season it would be nice. That is really the only area he failed in. Also does any body think Caceres shouldn't be playing CB and instead play more RB to give Lichsteiner a rest. 90% of the time i see him play i see him playing in the 3 man CB line but i like him a lot more as a RB.
I dunt think so. I believe they didn't find anyone better for LB than Asa. Zuniga is more of a Isla replacement than Asa replacement. We could have moved for Coentrao, Ekotto or Siquera if we were really felt the need to move Asa to middle.
Thats not the case. The coach and Marotta wants to play Asa on left cause there is hardly a better LWB in the market than him at the moment, taking out the old timers like Evra,Cole..

Marotta calls for reform in Italian football
Giuseppe Marotta says Italian football needs to undergo an “essential” process of reform if it is to stand any chance of reducing the gap on its European competitors.
The Juventus CEO, who spoke to reporters at the 39th edition of the Ambrosetti Workshop, an annual economic conference held in the town of Cernobbio, touched on a variety of subjects throughout the duration of the interview, but began by expressing his views on the fundamental issues currently affecting the Italian game.
Marotta said: "The varying tax regimes in other countries are penalising Italian football. These need to be harmonised because otherwise they create disparity, which is why I hope UEFA intervene.
“It's essential Italian football undergoes reform, beginning with stadium facilities, most of which are currently in disrepair. We need new legislation on stadiums because one of the reasons we're lagging behind other countries is the difference in income from stadiums."
Having overseen the construction and development of Juventus Stadium, Marotta is fully aware of the criteria that need to be filled when designing a brand new arena.
And he is confident that the Bianconeri’s home, which will host the Azzurri in Tuesday’s World Cup qualifier against Czech Republic, has ticked all the required boxes.
"A modern stadium, part of the club's heritage, which is welcoming, iconic and safe. These are all prerequisites for a good arena. Meanwhile, we hope the Italy game can be decisive for qualification. It’s a real point of pride for us to host the national team at Juventus Stadium.”
Looking ahead to next weekend’s resumption of the Serie A championship, Marotta concluded by predicting an intriguing battle when the Bianconeri square up against a rejuvenated Inter on Saturday night at the San Siro.
“It will be an important test against a new-look side who will certainly enjoy a decent season. I know Mazzarri well, he’s very good at what he does and has been able to breathe new life into the environment. Inter will be involved in this season’s Scudetto race and should be considered among the favourites.”
