But Juve never seem to get on with these newfangled fancy fresh coaches do they? And looking at their squad, I can see maybe 3 players who fit the playing style Motta has earned plaudits with at Bologna. It's not like they've got the finances to buy him a new team either.
Pirlo was different: he was a personal choice from the CEO, simply because they saw Pirlo as a symbol of the club, he also promised that modern brand of football and everybody wants to find the next Guardiola.
The end result was that having a lot of knowledge of the game is quite different from knowing how to apply your knowledge, and Juve actually still had a solid squad when Pirlo was in charge.
Now I really doubt someone is expecting Juve to win the title if you take a look at both Milan clubs squads. And with all the financial restrictions they are having at the moment everyone will expect to be a roller-coaster in the first season.
