Now with an end to this disaster Who are the candidates for the new manager Something to look forward to after the gloom and doom. And which players (if any) will remain
I'm honestly not as sad as I should be, after 2006 Italy has only seen few good moments, last of my memory was Euro 2012 excluding final. It really boggles my mind how much this team fell apart without Andrea Pirlo. If Italy has gone through, good chance is they'll be out from groups. It has been very frustrating as a fan to see so much disappointment one time after another. When you cheer for the Azzurri, you're going for the win, getting out of group stage ain't gonna cut it. Italy needs drastic changes, in my lifetime I've seen Italy win a world cup in 2006 that gave me such joy and see them not qualify for a world cup just now, which is a huge disappointment. Now for the topic, I'm hoping for a miracle and a coach joins that doesn't have his head up his ass, and prepare a strong team for Euro 2020 that we can finally have some confidence in, a team that can ********ing pass the ball properly and setup plays in the box instead of relying on failed crosses after another, a whole revamp. I've never seen Italy win a Euro before and I want to see it happen.
who the hell cares at this point?......this thread is way too early anyway considering there is no urgency to hire anyone....the whole system needs an overhaul
It's going to be a long time before we even need anyone, any interim coach should do just fine to handle the friendlies until it gets close to Euro qualifying time.
Let's get gattuso in there at least as assistant manager. Need a fiery southerner to whip some a$$ like conte
We need a man's man with balls of steel and a burning fire in his gut; a man who'll get these pampered momma's boys by the scruff of the neck and boot them to the top. A man who'll take no prisoners, no shit and will tear up the ancient trees of Italian football and build a new dynasty the like of which has never been seen before. Are you thinking what I'm thinking? That's right, there's only one man who can carry the weight of this monumental task on his shoulders:
OMG, if Gattuso had been on this team, he would have strangled half the players (and Ventura) after such a pathetic display.
Does anyone think Diego Simeone might be a good idea? It looks like his time at Atletico has run its course. Presumably he speaks Italian. I don't think he'd be interested however.
No reputable coach is taking that job with Carlo there. Nobody wants to work with the old Bozo. Conte said he not coming back, Roberto said he's good where he is and now Carlo just ruled himself out of the job after asking the status of his old fool Carlo. This tells me Carlo was told the old fool is not going anywhere so said F that. This is why I said it's just as important to get Carlo out of there as it is to get ventura out. As you can see no reputable coach wants to work with this guy. The old man is pimping Italian football and he won't step down because he's using it to line his pockets. Might as well start looking at Serie B coaches at this point.
Ancelotti's agent said he don't want the job after asking about the status of the old fool. http://app.football-italia.net/?ref...jects-italy-job#article/footballitalia-112961
If that's not enough to light a fire up someone's ass i don't know what is.I just hope something is done before another team snatches up Ancelotti
I have a feeling Ancelotti might take the Croatia job for the World Cup and then come home to a Tavecchio less FIGC. #TavecchioOut
I doubt it because the Croatian Federation has confirmed its new coach until the end of its WC campaign.
Tavecchio: "Colpa di Ventura. Non dormo da 4 giorni. Ora Conte? Fuoco..." Branchini sulla Nazionale: "Ancelotti ha detto di no" Ranieri: "Io sulla panchina dell'Italia? Se dovessero chiamare..."
Of course Tavecchio was going to throw Ventura under the bus to try and save his own arse, but he has to be forced out for making that call.
Sarri defended Ventura on Sabato Sprint saying it wasn't entirely his fault. Montella implied the same thing from what I heard .....
