“Our goal is to outperform last season,” Marco Baroni repeatedly said during his months as Torino’s head coach. A manager not prone to bold declarations, he nonetheless set this target—one that remained far from reach. Following a 3-0 defeat to Genoa, Baroni was dismissed with Torino sitting on just 27 points, a stark reminder of how far the club has fallen short of its ambitions. The transition from Daversa to Baroni was meant to signal a new era of growth, but the numbers tell a story of stagnation rather than revival. Under Baroni’s tenure, the team struggled to find consistency, failing to build on the foundations laid by his predecessor. The data reveals a side that lacked defensive solidity, an overreliance on individual brilliance, and a failure to convert promising spells into results. As Torino looks to rebuild, the question remains whether the next tactician can break the cycle and finally deliver the resurgence the club has been yearning for.
