So, thank's to Tennie's Sacchi-Milan post we got to the idea to make more threads. Initially the Capello thread was next to be made, but I wanted to test the idea with you and so I decided to start with one that is a bit more simple.

Any additional info, questions, adds, etc. go here or you can PM me. All the talks about the former players (well except Capello and Baresi who got their own threads) and the Italian-football 70ties...please here!
