cosmi, other than our own lippi is imo the best manager in italy and for the last 3/4 years has been head and shoulders above the rest... add to that he is a financial wizard and the best talent spotter in world football!!
He is also capable of getting far more out of a player than his talent deserves, he does things his way and is not stryed by anyone.... a great ,great manager!!

Maybe, but he wouldn't have the baggage some of the other coaches have(or their defensive tactics). Besides, there's no rule to define how much success a coach going into NT management from league management will be able to attain, look at Trap, won everything at league level, at international level...............
Italy siuation is so bad at the moment... so I think that to have a coach who is used to fight not to go in serie B is even better than to have one who is used to work in the "golden olimpo" of the big teams.
Cosmi is probably the one who has more personality and he is used to work in polemics (sorry if I use this word too mutch
) cause Gaucci (Perugia president) is the craziest of Italy... so he won't loose himself in the "heavy air" that is always around the NT...
But the problem is still the same: the FICG peaple are old and jurassic, so they will never pick up somebody like Cosmi!

Cosmi is a good choice and I have seen Perugia a few times and they do play some good football
The biggest point that Respaul made imo as per Cosmi is that he brings out the best in his players and that is what is seriously lacking in the Nt at the moment
I do have reservations however for Lippi as Nt manager, he seems to have an ego problem and that is the last thing that the Nt needs right now , another Sacchi who has/had no idea how to deal with big players, so therefore called everyone and his mum to the Nt and Italy just played with average yes men but with no style or pattern. Also Lippi's record against big teams and rival managers is not great and to win Euro2004 and wc 2006, you will have to meet and beat top teams, something Lippi's teams have a problem doing
Del Neri too is a good club manager but do Italy have the palyers to play his brand of football, I mean are there any fast right wingers in Italy at the moment
Vialli may have tapered a bit as a club manager but he has international experience as a player and not too distant, as he probably knows the modern requirement of international football as if Voeller, Hughes and Savicevic can do well, why not Luca
So the probable 2 best candidates are Cosmi and Vialli

Well the question remains how does that translate to the NT? I mean he won't have the players in training all the time, will he still get the best out of them? Not to mention that these are not young and promising players, they are stars who (for better or for worse) think highly of themselves. Just my wondering.
good point Alex....but its not about how good the players feel...its how they play.
i hear trap is a great guy with Great personality...the players love him....but he can't do $hit on the field with the NT.
Stars = young players + age + experience + more talant
so i dont think there will be too much difference
