We can't be patient unfortunately. Our former coach, our position in the standings, our nerves won't let us be patient.
It won't be Zac's fault if we play bad on the next 3,4,5 matches. Things have been fucked up at such a level that even a trio of Lippi, Mourinho and Ferguson won't be able to fix it, but it still won't make us be patient because we know that if we don't get the results asap, we will miss out on the CL next year.

Some good words from zaccheroni from his latest interview, atleast his got a history or professional precense rather than turning up a media circus like his previous two predecessors. Though his previous words certainly didnt go unnoticed. Anyway on the pitch the jury's out.
I guess some of the dislike is from him being an ex milan and inter coach.. quite understandble and you would expect the same from the opposition fans had it been reversed. It kind of reminds me of when ancelotti came to manage us. Of course times have so changed. He comes with some decent pedigree in serie A but his CL exits with milan and inter are notable leading to his sacking and I think on a european level his just not capable.
Its proberly a sense of deja vu for him as in 2004 he has a similar task with inter and he managed to get them in to 4th spot. Whether he can do it again remains to be seen but I feel in europa were so out.

What do you think will be a "job well done" by Zaccheroni?
Imo, a top 4 finish will be a good job and a top 3 finish a great job.
Of course, under no condition I want him to stay, no matter how well he does in these 4 months (well, except if he makes us play a champagne football or wins 90% of the remaining matches....but we all know that this won't happen).

I have nothing against Zaccheroni being an X-Milan/Lazio coach. In fact, if I remember correctly he was in charge of the Lazio that beat Inter 4-2 which lead us to win the Scudetto in season 01-02.
What I am afraid of his lack of accomplishment in almost every team he has coached. In fact, if you exclude 99 Scudetto, he has failed to achieve almost all the objectives set by the clubs he coached.
I really hope the players react well with him.
I liked the fact that the first thing he's done is to speak with Del Piero and take his insights into consideration. Its players like Alex who have won before and carried the team during the good and bad times know what is lacking and what is needed to return back to the glory days.

So did Chiellini when he was being lured from Fiorentina for that matter.
That said, it's not like Juve doesn't deserve some truthful, not-so-nice things to be said. For example:
* The Board is incompetent
* Money was wasted on mediocre players
* The players are playing only to a fraction of their potential right now
* The club is setting new records in futility every other week
* Nobody can pass, nobody runs
* We have only two goals from our forwards since November
* We failed to lure our first 6-7 coaching replacement choices for Ciro
* We waited two months too long to replace Ciro
...
I mean, how can you complement any team under the circumstances?
The last thing we need is some clown to walk in to tell us that The Project continues to go as planned ... that luck beats determination ... blah blah blah. I want a coach who can step in and start kicking some ass around the the locker room.
If Zac's pre-game pep talk is, "You guys play like a bunch of pussies unworthy of this jersey," Forza Zac.
