Looking at the league right now, there isn't one impressive manager in Serie A except for the obvious Benitez. By impressive I mean someone who has won any meaningful silverware. Anyone else?

what financial balance are you talking about, are you claiming that selling diego for 15mil only, was a necessary transfer, in order to pay 20mil for bonucci and martinez for 12?
If it did, it was a much much greater failure than it seems!
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/2010–11_Juventus_F.C._season

Try the above the link especially in In-Out section and look at the total money spending and revenue from transfer. We approximately only spend 19m Euro net. That include the Martinez deal on 12m, don't forget we pay it on 3 or 4 times payable so the money we spend now can be less.. Also i read from official statement, Wolfsburg pay Diego 15.5m in advance (cash).. So that's what the mean of financial balance and Marotta also trim all the players with big wages like Poulsen, Tiago, Trez, and Camo, Zebina.. And several purchase is only on loan so if next season they fail but we still can get CL, we can make a better purchase

The bad things is we can't get rid Grosso and Brazzo and save their wage bill.. But Brazzo contract is expiring and the bigger problem should be Grosso.. It's all from mess made by Secco

Exactly. Mourinho is gone, Ranieri and Leonardo's teams got the second two spots lasts season and then it was Del Neri. I'm not saying he is an excellent coach but no one can say we have a mid-table minded coach when the table consists mostly of teams whose coaches don't seem to be any better (and more welcomed here most importantly) than Del Neri.

Delneri was brought in as he has had relative success with teams working to a budget, which is exactly what Juventus needed to do. If he can reproduce here what he has elsewhere, then the future will begin to look much brighter.

The whingers who expect Juventus to be full of World Class players, and vying for the Scudetto and CL really don't grasp the complexities of the financial restraints facing the management. Prudence and good management will produce future success, both on and off the pitch.


I still feel unsure though of what the future holds.

Lets hope some of his buys can turn out to be great. Don't forget, that in our best years, we were known for spending little on unknown players to make them big (Camoranesi, Zambrotta, Zidane....). We were the once, who made stars, while others were trying to land them.

Zambrotta wasn't cheap.

i agree!! but we bought players who are known for their medicore status like, pepe Martinez quag etc... and we know that they won't improve cause they doesn't have the technical ability so it's not like that we bought Pepe and we don't know if he is good or not.. no he is bad and all of us knows that. maybe Krasic is the only example of ur concept!! anyway am optimistic about this team i gues we will reach our goals and make the big 4 :agree:

Maybe he's going somewhere with these loans but we can't manage losing games through he way, atleast not against bari as there are teams who are stronger on the way and have been playing longer together, we need a winning streak for morale boost so we can atleast bounce back if we lose a game.

The only thing one has to always remember, is unlike Inter and AC Milan, Juventus runs as a business company. Meaning, in order to keep functioning well they can only spend what they can afford.
Where as Inter for an example are running on huge donations from Moratti AND loans which are being granted due to Moratti's financial status. Same applies to Milan.

Yes, being a publicly traded company has its pitfalls. Especially when the board is more concerned with paying out a high dividend to stockholders as opposed to actually regaining glory on the field.
