Serie A bosses with a point to prove: Jose Mourinho, Max Allegri, Maurizio Sarri set for new season

Daily Mail  

Fans of Italian football probably watched the aftermath of this summer's European Championship with a warm glow of contentment about the state of Italian football, at least at international level. Jose Mourinho looking to bounce back from Tottenham failure at Roma, Max Allegri returning to rebuild Juventus, Simone Inzaghi aiming to retain Inter's first title in a decade after Antonio Conte's exit, and plenty more besides. Not exactly an auspicious beginning for Inter Milan fans hoping for optimism in new manager Simone Inzaghi's first press conference, but at least an honest one. Maurizio Sarri was not universally popular at Juventus or Chelsea but is now installed at Lazio Gonzalo Escalante has admitted the players are still getting used to Sarri's demands Sure, the Lazio squad is nowhere near as strong as his last two teams. Napoli manager Luciano Spalletti will have to keep club president Aurelio De Laurentiis happy De Laurentiis may be forced to sell several players before the transfer window shuts His outside-the-box thinking and innovative formational changes at Roma saw aging skipper Francesco Totti shine in a false nine role, but he was not overawed by the legendary figure and stood up to him figuratively as well as literally while at the club.
