Luciano Moggi says Juventus must sack Ciro Ferrara this week or risk disaster. The former Juve sports director has been publicly backing Ferrara, but could not find anyother solution to the crisis after yesterday's defeat to Chievo.

Moggi said: "Now Ferrara must go because it is obvious that the dressing room is no longer following him. If Juventus were to lose next Saturday against Roma, the crisis would become irreversible.

"Only Diego and Melo on the field (yesterday) cost as much as the whole Chievo team. Ferrara will pay for what (Alessio) Secco has done because he does not matter, he decides nothing.

"I do not know who could replace Ciro."
