    Fonseca is the choice for me if those are the options. He doesn't know Serie A, but he is known to be a good tactician. Maybe bringing in an outside guy is what we need like when Rudi came in an turned things around. Nobody wants Miha. De Zerbi is underwhelming. Fonseca can kind of benefit from being an unknown quantity.

    Roma's story is never straight forward. Mihajlovic, comes in, hated by both Roma and now Lazio fans but he turns the club around and performs a miracle, winning something important. He's now hated for life by Lazio, while Roma fans are confused on whether to take to him or not before eventually cheering him just to piss off Lazio fans more.

    Out of all those names for me I'd go with Gattuso. Like I said this team needs a hardass that isn't afraid to bring the hammer down. They need someone that knows what takes off the pitch to be a champion.

    If we don't change the culture Roma will never be successful.

    Only reading good things about Fonseca. We are already in the gutter, so we might as well take chances on someone a bit unknown. Especially when the other options are known trash cans.

    If its between Fonseca and McTuso I'll take the gamble on Fonseca. We can't get any worse.

    Looks like it’s down to Zorro vs Guardiola Jr.

    Thanks. I don't know why we're even discussing his coaching abilities. If they go for Mihajlovic after the DDR drama I might as well stop watching Roma games.

    Well it seems that it's Petrachi who is pushing for Mihajlovic, which kinda makes me doubt if I want Petrachi at Roma at all.

    I didn't mind Gattuso at Milan, tbh. I genuinely thought they'd play hideous football, but it was fairly progressive. Also, his man-management techniques, such as getting his players to slap him in the face, are pretty great.

    No idea if he's actually a good manager, but thought I'd point that out.

    But yeah, I'd rather Fonseca. He was always going to make a move to a bigger club eventually, why not let it be us. He's been on the hipster's choice radar for quite some time now, and his sides play good stuff.

    Seems its down to Fonseca vs Mihajlovic.
    From reading on both
    Mihajlovic sacked 5 times in his 10 - 12 year coaching career.

    Fonseca sacked by Porto in 2013 - 2014, failed there. Sounds like he did well in Portugal to move to Porto, failed and moved back to other lower teams in Portugal. Then 2016 replaced Lucescu in Shakhtar, did well.

    The Mihajlovic past,I cannot go over it. Although Mihalovic wont have any problem coaching here, he did coach Milan despite his Inter past. He doesnt give shit about Lazio.

    But since Roma per Mihalovic were two worst years of his career then I will go for Fonseca.

    "Spalletti leaves Roma with his head held high. Since replacing Rudi Garcia in January last year, Roma have picked up 133 points, just 10 less than Juventus -- a team that has shown that they are up there with the best in Europe since Massimiliano Allegri arrived three years ago.

    This season, Roma collected 87 points, breaking the previous club record of 85 established by Garcia in 2014, and qualified directly for the Champions League a point ahead of Napoli, one of the world's most exciting teams and one which bagged its own club record points total. By the way, 87 were enough points for Juve to win the league in 2015.

    Not only that, but Spalletti's Roma team completed the campaign scoring 90 goals, more than any Giallorossi side in history. A big part in that was played by Serie A top scorer Edin Dzeko, who netted 29 times and gave nine assists in 37 league appearances. His turnaround from last season, when the Bosnian scored just eight times and was a laughing stock, had a lot to do with Spalletti."

    The fact that we want mid-table coaches over Luciano is ridiculous. Our leadership prefers holding on to a grudge over signing the best manager that's available. He has no job! I doubt he would reject coming back. DDR & Totti are gone, we are planning on selling Dzeko and Kolarov so he would have free reign over the squad.

    Our club needs someone who can deliver top four year after year until the stadium is built and that person is Luciano. He also has strong connection to Roma as an added bonus which is something that matters.

    I would rather keep Ranieri over those three. But he is not really interested in working for James.

    Unfortunately, Totti is not gone. And as long as Totti is still in the club, Luciano will never come back.

    Have you ever considered that Pallotta might not want him back either?
