Eriksson, Benitez, Blanc discussed at Juventus
Sven Goran Eriksson and Antonio Conte are among names being considered by Juventus to succeed coach Ciro Ferrara.
La Stampa says Juve president Jean-Claude Blanc and patron John Elkann spent yesterday discussing candidates to replace Ferrara.
Eriksson, Marco van Basten and Conte were all considered, along with top two names Rafa Benitez, the Liverpool manager, and Bordeaux coach Laurent Blanc.
Benitez is currently Juve's No1 choice, but his long contract and commitment to Liverpool is proving a major obstacle. Elkann and Blanc accept if they were to go for the Spaniard, they would have to wait until the end of the season to land him.

Those names linked are worrying, Eriksson has achieved nothing and is VERY overrated, Conte is the same as Ferrara, to inexperienced, Benitez is a joke, horrible manager who blames everyone but himself when things go wrong and is shocking in the transfer market, wasting so much money and only getting a few signings right.
Blanc is the only name there that looks any good, but even he is very inexperienced, although hew has done very well so far at Bordeaux.
I'd do whatever it takes to get Hiddink, but failing that bring in Trapattoni till the summer to settle the ship and re-build then
