Fabio Grosso beats Claudio Ranieri . The former Frosinone coach, now without a team after his experience at Lyon, won the Silver Bench as best coach of the last Serie B championship. The 2006 world champion beat the Cagliari coach by six votes (22 against 16), thanks to the surprising path of the Ciociaria club, winner of the second category.

However, Ranieri's placing was excellent, placing him on the second step of the podium despite his fifth place finish: the rossoblù's comeback was therefore rewarded, allowing the Roman coach to precede Alberto Gilardino , third.

In Serie A, dominance for Luciano Spalletti . The championship won by Napoli allows the coach from Certaldo to destroy the competition, with 42 votes out of 61 voters. It is his second Panchina d'Oro, after the one won for the 2004-05 season as coach of Udinese. Simone Inzaghi second and Stefano Pioli third.
