Following another disastrous defeat in the hands of Chievo, Andy Golding investigates the short comings of Juventus post calciopoli.

It is of no secret that Juventus are facing their toughest period in club’s history, not only are they losing matches, but also their identity. With manager Ciro Ferrara facing the sack, the responsibility lies solely with the Club's management. It has been evident from the start that (Jean) Blanc, (Alessio) Secco and former president (Giovanni Cobolli) Gigli lack any footballing knowledge. Having spent in excess of £200 million on big names signings such as Tiago, (Jorge) Andrade, Amauri, (Sergio) Almiron, have failed to live up to expectations.

The sad truth is that Juventus are crumbling faster than a house built on quicksand and shows no sign of the damage stopping any time soon. Despite this, the board remain adamant that their five year plan will succeed and their intentions to complete it, if this is the case there is no hope for Juventus fans any time soon unless massive changes are made. Firstly replacing Ciro Ferrara is not adequate enough to secure long term success, whilst it is becoming increasingly unlikely that Blanc will bring a manager of Guus Hiddink's calibre, not because of his huge wage demands, but simply because Blanc wants a manager who will comply to his 'plan', hence the resignation of former manager Didier Deschamps, whom despite his success in taking Juventus back to Serie A, his vision did not match those of the incompetent board.
