SILENZIO STAMPA!

I don't want to hear any more excuses or "No more mistakes", "We can win the Scudetto" "Inter? We can beat them and then catch them". Fuck off, just show it on the field.

Thing is, considering the way we spend, it clearly shows that the board does have ambitions. The q really is, why an unproven manager?

The transfers under Ranieri weren't good, a lot of mistakes. The transfers under Ferrara were a lot better. Imagine if Ranieri had the better players. We could actually have won something.

If Ranieri had these same players he'd probably have Diego playing out left or leave him on the bench for Salihamidzic.

Would Ranieri have picked the players we bought this summer?

Didnt he had a say in his transfer period about the players he wants?

Last year we were in the exact same situation, only difference is most of us here were asking for ranieris head. But since ferrara is a "juve legend"we just call him "unproven coach". Goes to show, how some members here go with the flow of things. I dont think ferrara is doing a better job than ranieri honestly especially with his substitutions, they might be more offensive but they come either too late or don't fit the scheme of things.

Anyway, I think there's no chemistry between our players this season it might be ferraras system and tactics or lack of. Or maybe, some players on our team just don't work well together. And of course our favourite thing to do over here for the last 4 years, blame the management.

Well, he is unproven.

And my thesis is usually you need to give managers at least a half of a season to settle in and get things clicking. Did the same with Ranieri but if we lose one of these two next games he has to go.

Do you think that's unfair, though? I don't. Ciro really is unproven, that's not an excuse we invented. You have to take into account people's background. It makes perfect sense to demand more from Ranieri, after all isn't he over 60 with decades of coaching experience?

How can you make someone available?
I dont know. Chelsea didnt seem to have a problem sacking one coach and bring in another. Real Madrid do it every now and then (no i am not saying they do it in a successful way, just proving my point).


Truth is Juventus deserves a better manager. Have we really fallen that much behind some of the others? We arent attractive enough for top coaches?
