I genuinely think Carlo is giving too much credit to our naff players being able to understand and play a game of football. Needs to hold their hand more and teach a solid system.

We have a system. It's defensive and pragmatic until we buy significantly better players or until we have our best players fit again.

When our 6 best players have played together this season (DCL, James, Allan, Doucouré, Digne and Richarlison) we have won 5 and drawn 1. No one was bleating about systems and style of play then.

Simple as that.
 

He perhaps is more risky than carlo. But give him 5 years and I'd bet there's a good chance he will deliver a trophy. As that's what he does. But in this day and age of bed pissing 'now now now, mamy make me my dinner now' he won't get that time. Altough having said that he has them in a final already. That's at spurs. At Everton he can have all the time to throw who he wants under the bus and slowly build his own team of Jose diehards and see what he can do at Everton. Cause getting a world class manager is/was a lotto win. I wouldn't be throwing away the ticket.
When did he ever stay anywhere 5 years? Mourihno has never ‘built’ a team. He normally comes in spends some money has quick impact wins something peeing off half the squad on the way which then leads to a break down in relationships effecting performances and then he’s sacked.

Built his own porto team, built his own Chelsea team. Alboet it with plenty cash in few windows. And if he inherits a fully equipped sqaud he wins things.

I never said he spends 5 years anywhere but thats what I'd give him at Everton. He wouldn't chose Everton anyway and I would prefer to have carlo Ancelotti too. I'd say he would be much riskier for reasons you are getting at. But If we did get him I wouldn't turn my nose up giving our history since the 80s. I'd give him all the time and all the players he needs to throw under the bus as sometimes I'd like to be the driver of said bus and run over most of our players myself.
 

SOME OF THE ANCELOTTI PRE MATCH SPURS P/C

Ancelotti on Gbamin​

The plan for him is to be back at the start of the new season. He doesn't need surgery.

Ancelotti offers injury update​


Pickford, Allan, King and Gomes are fit for Spurs
DCL, Mina, Delph and Bernard back next week


Ancelotti on injury-crisis​

All teams have this problem. The fitness of the team is good. The players who have come back are in good condition and don’t need minutes to get fit as they’re already fit, It's true we had a lot of injuries. We were able to manage the absences of Allan, Digne, Richarlison, James. To have these kind of injuries all at the same time makes it more difficult


Ancelotti on form​

There were games where we were not good enough. It's a difficult period for us which came now with a lot of injuries.
But we have to continue to fight

Ancelotti on European challenge​

There are a lot of teams involved there. We dropped some points in the last few games. We need to get the result against Tottenham and then we have some important games. It is open for everyone but difficult for everyone

Ancelotti on Mourinho​

Every manager tried to do his best. We try to do our best. I am not able to judge Mourinho's job. In my opinion he always does a fantastic job.
Pressure on a manager is normal. Every manager has to manage the pressure

Ancelotti on Spurs​

It will be an open game. They need points and we need points. They could score but we could score also.
It is unpredictable to say what could happen

Ancelotti on Europe again​

To judge our season, we have to wait until the end. It could be a fantastic season if we reach Europe. It could be a good season if we don't do this.
I think it will go the last game. Lots of teams have inconsistent results.

Ancelotti on Concussion Subs​

My view is there is a medical specialist on the pitch that has to take the decision if the player is able to play or needs to be substituted. I think we need to give that decision in the hands of the medical professionals

Ancelotti on Lewin absence​

The absence of Dominic is important but upfront we have options. We have done well without him in some games

Ancelotti on Gbamin reaction​

He is a strong guy with a strong character. He has managed the injuries he had last season and this season. His character is so strong and will be even stronger after these unlucky situations. It will help him in his career for sure.
