The difficult season of the former FCS coaches

It hit him on Tuesday. Giovanni Stroppa was eliminated after six games and five defeats dismissed from Serie A promoted team Monza. Last year, Stroppa was promoted from Serie B to the top league with the Berlusconi club.

Two other former FC Südtirol coaches work in Serie A, Paolo Zanetti (Empoli) and Marco Baroni (Lecce). Just like Monza, Empoli and Lecce have not yet won. While Zanetti has collected four draws in a row with the Tuscans (before losing against Roma on Monday), Lecce has three points. This means that Empoli and newly promoted Lecce are just above the ominous line. By the way: Baronis Lecce was also Stroppa's last opponent on Sunday. The game ended 1:1. Javorcic has to deliver at Venezia Venezia is struggling hard in Serie B and is nowhere near where it would like to be. If it hadn't been for the Dusel victory against FC Südtirol, the Lagunenstädters would be in the relegation zone. They are in 16th place – with two points less than the FCS. Did Ivan Javorcic, who led the White Reds into Serie B as master coach, speculate? There is no rush to judgment, but one thing is clear: Javorcic should score points quickly with Venezia, otherwise he is in danger of quickly being eliminated from the promotion candidate.

There are also problems in Modena. The promoted team is one of the relegation candidates and is trained by Attilio Tesser. The former FCS coach knows that staying in the league can be his team's only goal - which is why the situation for him is much less critical than for Javorcic. Either way, the season so far hasn't been an easy one for the former FCS coaches. But who knows, maybe the tide will turn for Zanetti & Co. soon.
