If Conte gets his way in Inter and we sign Sarri it's going to be a struggle for 1st place.
So Conte is the almighty and Sarri is Mr.Failure - This is your scenario..
Conte is a great coach and a great motivator no doubt about it but if he is that great as you make him to be why didnt we just take him and win the CL?! I mean if he can make miracles imagine what type of miracles he can do with Juve (and Ronaldo)
It seems to me that sometimes people here are not rational enough..

conte is an insanely effective motivator and a very well prepared coach. just have a look at the players he had at juve. he even made freakin' giaccherini look like a good player. too bad he's a spineless, greedy "professional", relies too much on his preparation and is unable to react to in-game situations as quickly as some more instinctive coaches. but he deserves all credit unfortunately. he's a perfectionist. he's obviously too good for inda.
Agree about Conte but Giaccherini didnt just look like a good player - He is a good player I dont know why you dont give him the respect he deserves..
Giaccherini might not be Zidane or Platini but he is a good player and in the right setup he can blossom as you have seen before..
Conte IMO is a great coach and I really think he will manage to make Inter go 2nd and will actually replace Napoli as the "main rivals" but in order for Inter to challenge for the scudetto 2 things need to happen
1. Conte to make a miracle with Inter - I can see that happening to a certain degree..
2. Sarri has to flop amazingly hard - We need to do very wrong on the market+not strengthen the midfield+players not fit the system...
Take Allegri`s Juve of this past year - We started well and I was amazed by our team show vs Valencia (until Ronaldo got a red it looked like the best team in the world plays the worst one and then Ronaldo got his red card and we still were far superior to them). Then came the 2nd half of the season which seemed like we are just not playing well - yet we won almost every game despite of our team not exactly playing..
Even then we won 6 games ahead - So maybe we wont win 6 games ahead but we are still heavy favorite for the scudetto and unless something rare and unexpected happens you can write the 9th scudetto to Juve..
