Juve told to hire Mancini
Juventus should look to appoint Manchester City boss Roberto Mancini this summer, says former striker Michele Padovano.
The Turin giants are expected to show Gigi Del Neri the door after a difficult first campaign in Turin and Mancio has been linked.
“I would go for Mancini,” said Padovano, the Bianconeri’s super sub striker from the 1990s. “I know him as a player and he’s surprised me with his excellent results as a Coach.“
I’ve talked with a few players who have worked under him and they say he has a very good relationship with his squad – that would help Juventus win.
“I think he could be the right man for the job.”
Siena boss Antonio Conte has also been suggested as a possible appointment and Padovano knows him well after their playing days in Turin.
“Conte is predestined for Juventus,” Padovano, the scorer of 18 goals in 63 games for the Old Lady, added. “One day he’ll be the Coach.
“He’s worked his way up the ladder and has done well by putting himself up for discussion again by going to work in Serie B.
“He’s a Juventus candidate.”
Conte is currently looking good to lead Siena into Serie A, just as he did with Bari earlier in his coaching career.

I don't know if Mancini would be a disaster here. But one thing is for sure, he would have to be able to use the crew at his disposal. He managed to win the Scudetto in a weakened Serie A, and now has the transfer world at his feet, basically having his own central bank to throw money at players.
I don't even know why he'd want to come here. No free lunch at Juventus.

Forget Italian coaches, you'd be on a list of about 20 coaches worldwide with that criteria. Do you mean he plays a style of play 'that suits Europe'? Fergie found that switching from attacking to defensive counter attack was the way it suited his team, horses for courses, it depends what category of player we have.
heres a link about his revolutionary 4-6-0 formation

Found these parts interesting.
An 11-match winning streak in 2005/06 helped him win the Serie A Coach of the Year award, while he also proved time and again his tactical nous was better than that of Internazionale’s Roberto Mancini. Roma triumphed 3-1 at the San Siro in 2007 in a season where they would also win 7-4 on aggregate in the Coppa Italia final against the Nerazzuri. The following season Spalletti added more silverware at the expense of Manicini and Inter, with a 1-0 win in the Italian equivalent of the Community Shield, the Supercoppa Italiana. They defended their Copa Italia in 2008, again beating Inter, this time 2-1 in a single match final.
Whether the 4-6-0 system was intentional, or as Michael Cox thinks an Alexander Flemming-esque accidental discovery, it’s hard to say. But it was often very effective, as Spalletti’s domination over Mancini in head-to-head matches shows.
