Zidane and Gattusso haven't done too shabily either!Gerrard, Lampard, Viera have done fantastically well so far as novices , so see no reason why Pirlo won't follow suit. The infrastructure around him will give him all the tools to be a success

be interesting to see what they hope he does in the coming season. Juventus not won the CL since 1996 and Sarri lost his job because of the Lyon defeat which feels like it's becoming a noose round whoever is the Juve manager nowadays
they have to give Pirlo some time, rather than wanting too much from him. You would think winning the league would be a requirement as they have a proper NIAR in Italy
A bit like Steven Gerrard to us.
Their squads a bit of a mess
Very old and very expensive with no real assets to cash in on and rebuild
Their recruitment was amazing for years but it’s been mental recently and now hamstrung themDybala, Rabiot and Ramsay would all bring in a fair wedge. He may need to sell to finance deals.
Think it’s more Conte is close to resigning himself. He finished just a point behind Juve in his debut season and Inter are probably the favourites for the Europa League. They’re building a really cracking team so it would be a shame if Conte left so soon.Thought I read Conte was for the chop as well.
Got any lottery numbers for this week!Also wonder if they may go a bit Barca 2008 and try Pirlo.
Reminds me of Gary Neville telling the tale of Hoddle trying to explain a move to Beckham during a training session involvingGary, Beckham and Shearer. Try as he might, the bold David couldn’t master what Hoddle was asking of him leading to Glenn, in frustration, demonstrating exactly how we wanted the 60 yard pass played to Shearer who took the ball and stuck it in the net. Cue Beckham looking astonished as Hoddle turns to him and says, “That’s my bad leg, David. Surely to f**k you can do it with your good one!”.Shame.
I loved the thought of him starting off at a lower level getting increasingly frustrated at a part time plumber not being able to ping a 70 yarder after being shown for the 100th time.

Pirlo couldn't look more Italian even if he was wearing a jumper with the arms around his neck.
