After their loss to Lyon in the CL?
Maurizio Sarri's team have only won a couple of their last 7/8 matches and some players are almost as old as he is. At Chelsea he was a bizarre figure. Squabbling with his rebellious keeper, playing Kante further forward to accommodate his favourite Jorginho and generally confusing one and all. despite their unrivaled success in Italy, Juventus has not won an international competition this century which could be God's way of punishing them for their match-fixing, but must be a source of frustration to fans and owners alike. So time for a change? Candidates might include: Pochettino Conte (ex player) ZZ (his days at Madrid might be numbered and he is another ex-player) David Moyes (the self-proclaimed "winningest manager") Jose (the perennial candidate)

Yeah, looks like they may sack him.
Shame for Ronaldo - he broke Juve's club record for goals is a season. Bagged his 36th and 37th last night.

Neil Lennon would be ideal. He has what it takes to win a league where only one team can win. It's handy for the Vatican too.

Sacked: www.theguardian.com/football/2020/aug/08/juventus-to-evaluate-everything-after-champions-league-exit-to-lyonJuventus have sacked head coach Maurizio Sarri after they were eliminated from the Champions League by Lyon, the club have confirmed. Despite winning the Serie A title, the club’s ninth consecutive league championship, in his first season in charge at the Allianz Stadium, Sarri was dismissed having lost on away goals to Lyon on Friday night. Sarri has been the target of criticism since early on in his tenure and the European failure was the final straw for the club’s hierarchy. Lyon condemn Juventus to another exit despite Cristiano Ronaldo double Read more A club statement read: “The club would like to thank the coach for having written a new page in Juventus’ history with the victory of the ninth-consecutive championship, the culmination of a personal journey that led him to climb all the divisions of Italian football.” Earlier, club president Andrea Agnelli said he would review everything following their Champions League demise. “The balance of the season is obviously bittersweet,” Agnelli told Sky Sport Italia. “The season was very difficult, we wrote a fantastic page with the ninth title and especially with a coach who started in the amateur leagues to reach the highest point. “The Champions League is obviously a disappointment for us, the players and the fans,” he added. “We will take a few days to consider, evaluate everything and discuss how to go forward for next season.” The Fiver: sign up and get our daily football email. Despite their domestic dominance, Juventus have not lifted the Champions League trophy since 1996. “The Champions League has been a dream for us, but now it must become an objective,” said Agnelli. He was convinced that 35-year-old Ronaldo, who he described as the best player in the history of the Champions League, would remain for the third and final year of his contract. “He’s a pillar of Juventus,” said Agnelli.
