Prandelli takes full blame for the early exit , he chickened out with the formation & tactics..

Shame I had high hopes in him but his selections were odd & stupid

Antonio Cabrini is the latest name. Also, Francesco Guidolin if he can be convinced out of retirement. So basically, anyone Italian with a coaching license is a possibility. :p Cannavaro's agent also made some comments today, saying Fabio would be honored but there's not much to it yet.

Sky Italia are saying the new frontrunner for the job is Conte... he'd remain at Juve and just coach the Azzurri part time. Similar to Hiddink with Russia and Chelsea. Not sure if that's such a good move, but at least he's familiar with some of the core players.

Will still keep failing in Europe :mou:

Not sure if he'll stay on until then, earlier they were saying if he took the job it will just be a caretaker role and they'll appoint someone else before 2016. Not sure if that's still the assumption. If Juve fail again in Europe this season he might end up losing both jobs anyway.

Every team that faces King should count themselves lucky, he cant find the goal if his life depended on it.

He is fast and that's it. Got nothing else. If they are hell bent on using him then it would be better off as a super sub to stretch the tired opposition defence late in the game.

If they are hell bent on using him, he should be a winger, where he can use his pace and somewhat decent technique to something useful. Seeing as we mostly play the ball long to create opportunities, we should have one of our big guys up front to win some headers.

Good for Zaza to get his first int'l goal, with Balotelli being unable to play he's getting a chance to show what he can do. Especially since he plays for Sassuolo and isn't named Berardi, he isn't that well known.
