Perfetto, the Return of Carletto! - Benvenuto Carlo Ancelotti

Time to bring back this tune.

 

Vasquez should not play another game. Unfortunately, we need to move valverde to right back.

 

Valverde or Militao.

 

Carlo was never a great tactician. His subs are most of the time too late and with minimal impact as late in the game it is hard to turn around things.
To his defense, mbappe was shoved into this team by Perez, Carlo never had any say in signing players, and also when our players is injured, he (or any coach under Perez) don't get a replacement. Nothing will change in mid season.
The real problem is that Carlo and the players know it his last season, it will only get worse.

 

Who in their right mind puts Vasquez as RB to face off with Theo Hernandez and Leão?

I especially DO NOT like how he has dealt with most of the younger players including our most talented canteranos.
I get it, he's an old man and has no patience to deal with them or tell them what to do on the pitch but banishing them or kicking them out is completely uncalled for.

 

If we dont give shit about tactics anyway, put Ted Lasso there, he will galvanize the team

Jokes aside, Id keep Carlo until the end of the season. He deserves that for his years of service. Then in the summer appoint Klopp or Hoenes. If the team is really nosediving and you have to do something, put Raul until the end of the season. Best case scenario it turns into a new Zidane, worst case you let him go and get a proper tactician ahead of next season hopefully with several new players with his and his staffs approval.

btw I watched a bit of Brighton to see how this Hurzeler guy is playing. Great control, structure and intensity. On the completely other side of the age spectrum, from Serie A I love Gasperini. I could see either of these two work wonders with a 3-4-3 transitioning into other formations. Gasperini in particular also takes no shit and would not let primadonnas half ass it.

( I know both of these are a pipe dream though, as likely as Ted Lasso lol)

Anyway I would really like to see Florentino and co to pick a great coach and give him a lot of control over transfers. The risk is a ETH style fiasco if you dont get the coach right but if you do its worth it. I will miss Carlo if he goes. Honestly how can you not. But the writing was on the wall and everyone kept refusing to see it.

 

Knowing Flo

we sign Luis Diaz and add to our left winger brigade lmao

 

Honestly, 2 wins and suddenly all will be forgotten for the gentleman Don Carlo.

 

Nah! Only a maniac would think he should continue coaching this team for the reason you mention. Or is 1-3 after 0-4 not enough for you? After Mbappe we were supposed to challenge for all available titles. It’s a joint disaster by individual players and the coach.
