Roma, Zenit, Napoli and Inter. Not exactly peanuts.

Be realistic, there's no way in hell Allegri is the only guy pushing for Lukaku. It's either a big part of the board that wants this deal or the whole rumour is pure bullshit.

The real reason (Superleague) is not being reported. And only having to pay half of it if we comply, doesn't mean rule out more sanctions if we don't comply, obviously which is what we should fear.
Also, Allegri doesn't nearly have the power within the club to decide all those things himself. It's pure bullocks. There might have been a period last season with the board going out hence why the Alex Sandro case could be true. But if Lukaku is coming, he has big support from the board.

at Roma he was knocked out by the eventual CL champion twice and was 2x manager of the year.
Qualified Inter for CL for the first time in like 5-6 years, and made a similar resurgence when he returned to Roma
Took Zenit to knockout stages of the CL for the first time in their history.
Won Napoli a scudetto for the first time since what, the 90s? I also dont think Napoli ever made it to the CL QFs until he came around.
Dude has pretty much overachieved everywhere he's been. Give him Juve and he will win trophies.

Spalletti is alright but two notes:
1- Roma did make the CL before and after Spalletti. However, they finished 2nd under him, which is the highest table position Roma achieved in the past decade.
2- Mancini did finish 4th with Inda, as did Spalletti 2 years after him. But his 4th got them to the CL since they changed the rules to let more Serie Ass teams in. He did it somewhat controversially too (De Vrij, who was going to join Inter the season after gave away a penalty)

Thats potential but doesn’t place him in the company of Conte let alone Carlo. Conte won the league with Inter, Juve, and Chelsea all of whom were far from challenging before his arrival. And until he does something big in Europe he’s not in the same stratosphere of Carlo.
Carlo is amongst the GOATs with a huge legacy at Madrid and Milan.
I would be happy with Spaletti ofc he would probably pick up titles coaching Juve. Allegri, Sarri and Pioli did.

What a sad situation. Why do we keep insisting on signing this princess ? All signs say it's a bad idea, but they won't budge. Why not focus on something else for a change?
And if it's Allegri asking to sign him, why does he get a say in transfers? He hasn't earned that privilege considering last season's disappointments.

. The only thing I have with him is he tends to bottle when really pushed hard. At Napoli and Zenit he wasn't troubled at all.
