Before 2015/16 the source names the manager on fewer matches, so these rows can miss games.

Cesare Prandelli is the longest-serving: 215 matches over 4 years (Aug 2005 – May 2010). Vincenzo Montella added the most coach rating: +53.1 over 152 matches.

Club rating - the club's rating at the manager's first rated match → after the last. Coach rating - what the spell added to the manager's coach rating. Vs expected - average result per match above what the club rating predicted. Stand-in - a caretaker who covered a few matches during another manager's spell, folded under that spell.

Under Piero Giacomelli, Fiorentina picked up 1.60 cards a game, 39% below their own average in the same seasons (15 matches).

League matches since 2015/16 with the referee named (427). Cards = Fiorentina's own yellows and reds. Club avg = their cards a game in the same seasons with every referee. Under 10 matches the gap is grey: too few to call. Referees aren't drawn at random - the big games go to the senior ones - so a gap here describes, it doesn't prove a bias.
