Carlo Ancelotti

Can someone answer this question please

If or when Carlo signs I think it’s fair to assume he would have been promised brewsters to spend on players.
how will we get around FFP rules, any idea anyone?
Pay the fine.. psg and city got fines for breaking the rules, no way they can ban any team now the precedent has been set, if they try to ban a team now they'd be hammered in court.

Valid point, but I feel like you should remember that this is Everton we’re talking about
 

Instead of asking does ancelotti do long term projects maybe ask if those said clubs do long term projects. Coaches come and go at clubs like Real Madrid and PSG.
Up until a few weeks ago we were heading straight to the championship under marco silva. We now look like having one of the most trophy honoured managers in europe. Even if he's here for a few seasons he will attract a better quality player.
I'm cautious about it i wont lie. But to go from marco silva to carlo ancelotti in the space of a few weeks. Yeah, dam right i will go with it despite being cautious.
Thanks for backing me up

You have to put some of those sackings into context when you consider some of the bonkers club owners he's worked for.

Juventus: Sacked at half-time during the last game of the season (a match they won) when they were still in with a chance of winning the league. o_O

Chelsea: Won the double in his first season, league runners-up in his second, but sacked.

Real Madrid: Real won their first Champions League for 12 years in 2014, as well as the cup, and Ancelotti was voted FIFA coach of the year. Following season, league runners-up to Pep's brilliant Barcelona team who won all the trophies on offer, so he was sacked.

Bayern: Won the league in his first season and, if not for some very dodgy refereeing, would have beaten eventual winners Real in the Champions League QF. He was sacked a month into the following season after losing 3-0 to PSG in a CL group game.

Napoli: Sacked by bonkers owner after poor run in the league.

Even for the best managers, being sacked comes with the territory. Mourinho (4 times?), Simeone, Clough.....

I totally agree. There’s context, as with everything.

But people are asking why there would be any concerns. We’re expecting a short term, title-winning, European Cup winning manager (one of the very best) to come in and bring some long term stability to a club that isn’t going to challenge for titles or european cups. It’s not saying he’s a bad manager or a bad appointment, just that it’s flawed logic.
 
United used to sing about Liverpool when they were dominating the league every year, we're their local rival... if we suddenly got boss and they turn crap are you honestly suggesting some of our fanbase wouldn't be sticking the boot in ? It's a football rivalry, people always gonna disrespect their historical enemy.

Difference is, United and them we’re going for the league. We’re doing nothing and they’re singing about us at champions league finals.
 

I am worried about appointing Ancellotti… What if it doesn't work out well at all? Masses of money spent. What if we end up sacking him in 12 months? If he spends a fortune in the summer is any of the money recoverable, if we don't win anything? We need HUGE new sponsorship deals. Could we go bust?

It's all what if's... There's no guarantee of anything I guess.
