I would prefer Tiago than Almiron. But, when we get Camo and Marchionni back I would play a classic 4-4-2 like this:

Iaquinta--------Trezeguet

Nedved/Marchionni-----Zanetti------Nocerino/Tiago-------Camoranesi

Of course, I would also like to rotate players as much as possible because we have some other players which can´t be forgotten like Brazo, Almiron, Palladino, Del Piero.....

I believe Ranieri is doing just fine. We just had some bad luck. We could have won against Udinese (remember the woodwork!), we could have won the Roma-game if Del Piero had scored that damn penalty and we could have won against Fiorentina if the forwards weren't playing like little girls. But hey, no problem, we're going to be more than just OK. When Camoranesi and Marchionni return, and Alex will play like a man again, Inter and those other ladies will have a hard time trying to take us down. FORZA JUVE!

Mourinho: Forget England, I Want An Italian Club

Jose Mourinho has ruled himself out of the runnings for the England national team job. Instead, he restated his desire to work for a club - particularly an Italian one...

Former Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho offered a 'thanks, but no thanks' to those England supporters who had tipped him for the Three Lions hotseat.

Current boss Steve McClaren is under immense pressure in charge of the English national side, with Mourinho rumoured to be a potential replacement.

The 'Special One' himself, however, has nipped such speculation in the bud, first explaining that there's only one international job that would interest him, and then restating his desire to manage a club.

In an interview with English newspaper The News of the World, he said, "I think there are those who adore me in England. I adore English football. But I won't go back there for now.

Nonetheless, the door isn't closed forever on a return to the Premiership.

"I'd like to come back later," he added.

Still, it was clear to see where his desires were focused.

He stated, "I'd like to continue in club management, perhaps in Italy where I can test myself against their tacticians. The national team would be for later.

"The Portuguese national team is an ambition but not for the Jose Mourinho of today.

"Being the coach of a national team is not the same as being coach of a club. It's a job for someone who doesn't like working much."

Adding to his forthright views on international management, the former Porto coach criticised the growing trend for appointing foreign managers as bosses of national sides.

"I'm completely against having foreigners with national teams," he began.

"Not because I doubt the professionalism with which they do it, but I think that a national team should bring together the best players and the best coach from each country.

"The national team is an obsession for me but it will be at the end of my career. Let there be no doubt about that."

Mourinho, 44, has been out of work since his acrimonious departure from Chelsea in mid-September.

I would be delighted to see Mourinho coach in Italy, at Juventus or Inter in particular. He would give Serie A a much needed shot in the arm IMHO. He would bring alot more character and flavour to the league if nothing else, and he's as proven a manager and tactician as any I've seen at his age.
