I am the feeling of one and at the same time the omnipotent consciousness of all things living, dead, inanimate. Spanning time, reality, iterations and cosmic granuls
It was clearly a very bad joke but the fact that the coach of JUVENTUS made a comment like that is an extremely bad look and imo is close to a sackable comment for me.

i think context is important. it would be one thing if he had a juventino past ala Conte but when he has a trash past, frequently made derogatory comments about juve getting favors before, flipped off fans, and claimed he was glad to help Napoli then these comments are not appropriate.

Meh, he clearly doesnt use any kind of filter. We knew that when we hired him. Funny comment though, not gonna hold it against him. But I will hold him accountable for results at the end of season...

I disagree. It would be way worse if former juventino made this joke, especially when he is at helm of our biggest rival. People would be jumping all over the place. Sarri? I dont give two fucks about his comments.

Coming from someone like him with an anti-Juve past, it can easily be seen as one of the jokes with some truth in it. It gives fuel to the widely held belief that Juve is systematically favoured.

no i meant if conte had made that joke while still coach of Juventus/ pre inter. obviously now i would resent conte if he made jokes about juve match fixing while coaching a rival.

By whome? Anti juve crowd? They will think this way regardless of what anyone says. He should be more careful when adressing media, but we are talking about a guy who showed middle finger to our fans, who was often badmouthing us when he coached Napoli so I didnt expect he would suddenly adopt a more classy behavior after joining us. Whatever he does, its more on Agnelli and Nedved and testament of their capabilities to evaluate someone's character, if he is a good fit for this establishment, can he cope under pressure, etc...
For those that understand Italian, here is the actual quote
Sarri è finito nel mirino dei social anche per una battuta pronunciata in conferenza stampa sui mancati rigori: "I rigori con le maglie a strisce?Quest'anno non abbiamo le strisce e infatti ne abbiamo avuti pochi, forse bisogna ritornare alle vecchie maglie
“The penalties with the striped shirts? This year we don’t have the stripes and we’ve only had a few (penalties) maybe we have to go back to the old shirts”

It was meant as a “joke” but still...FFS nobody can actually defend him for saying shit like that especially after saying he doesn’t mind losing against Napoli.
