I always like Italian's coach !
French's breed never comes into my mind !
For example , remember that Roberto Mancini , that ex-Lazio's long serving player , he's doing a fantastic job with Lazio right now , he doesn't need to buy expensive players , but look at him , Lazio has been brilliant this season !
One best thing is , this is only his first season as Head-Coach !
Some Italian squads are like that. But if you look closely, Lazio's squad by itself if already quite good.
I can still remember the good old days of Parma where they turned nobodies into somebodies.
Crespo (I can't remember if he came from Parma)
Buffon
Carnavaro
Chiesa
Veron
Ortega
Stankovic
......and many more.
