Empoli Coach SACKED! Malesani no longer the Coach and LUIGI CAGNI RETURNS!

By Anna Italia

And the MERRY GO ROUND again.... Alberto Malesani is sacked and EMPOLI recycles coach Luigi Cagni.

Ironically, Malesani, despite the TERRIBLE results, yesterday was still confident he was not going to be sacked! Empoli lost at home against Sampdoria.  Empoli 0 - 2 Sampdoria.

Just few hours later, HE WAS SACKED as I have been predicting for 1 month like in the case of Baldini, Di Carlo,  and Guidolin.  I am still waiting for the sacking of Napoli Coach Edy Reja!   The writing is on the wall!

Unbelievable.  Hey, at least Catania coach Silvio Baldini had the decency to resign instead of waiting to be SACKED!  Cagni will start immediate training sessions TODAY at 3 p.m.

I give credit to MALESANI for the good match he presented against  INTER in Week 21.  This was the match signaling Inter's vulnerability and being saved by a controversial referee decision. Referee Paolo Tagliavento in the 33rd minute granted Inter a penalty kick.  Otherwise, match was going to be draw.  Match ended Inter 1 - 0 Empoli.

Check the last 5 positions of the Italian Serie A Standings:

16. Catania  29
17. Livorno 29
18. Cagliari 29
19. Reggina 27
20. Empoli 26
  Up to the Italian Serie A Week 31

 
Here is Empoli's Record
   under the leadership 
    of Alberto Malesani
         Empoli in the LAST position with 26 points 

6 wins, 8 draws, 17 defeats, Goals in favor 24, Goals against 45, Goals difference 21   

Still wondering why Coach Alberto Malesani was sacked!!!  HIS NUMBERS ARE TERRIFYING!!!!  .... most likely Empoli is heading to the Serie B!!! 
What do you think?
