Was meant in jest, sorry if it came off as snark. Enjoy your brew!

Will do thanks,

I just hope we do back Carlo and buy him a new midfield plus other positions he wants to turn us into a force, best manager we have had in a long long time.

What I love about Ancellotti being manager is that in the past the manager would’ve took the wrap for these disgusting performances but now these players have no place to hide as the fan base is 100% behind Ancellotti and that won’t be changing anytime soon.

Helps that he hasn’t once sugar coated the performance after a bad result unlike his predecessors

He also still has the determination to make us a CL club within the next couple of years.

He is a manager of the highest calibre. Still is awe that he manages us.

best manager we've ever had... you mean. (apart from records at everton of course)
What is 'a force' do you think/ What's success?

I'm dreaming of 70+ points for 2 seasons in a row. That would be brilliant, compared to last 30 years.
Start from there, and we'll see that it automatically means competing for EL and cups. Say 2020-21 we get 65 points, and then 70+ in 2022 and 2023 - that would be a proper progression.
Another big success is if Ancelotti is not fired, but leaves when he feels like. That means he's done well

I really hope we don't turn against him.

Spot on. Roberto would of called our last two matches phenomenal

I liked Roberto, but unfortunately he was not phenomenal enough.

GwladysBlue · July 11, 2020

He also makes the changes when the changes are needed. Our previous managers seemed to only make changes when we went 2-0 down and the game was already gone.

Hope he does not lose faith and we lose him.

They also did not have 5 subs that they could do.

Sean Dyche is a better manager than Carlo Ancelotti.

Prove me wrong.

you are strangely critical of Ancelotti
would not using the subs allowed to him give him more credit? he's only used more than 3 in 3 matches since the restart and even said he doesn't want 5 subs rule to continue so I dont understand your point at all.

Chris Wilder is a better manager than Carlo Ancelotti.

Prove me wrong.

Silva was a crap manager. Koeman was a crap manager. Martinez had decent ideas but he was very inflexible in those so he got sacked for being a crap manager.

This is Carlo fn Ancelotti here. All 3 of those managers combined will never come close to his managerial achievements. There aren't many in the history of the game that have.
