2020/21 Carlo Ancelotti

[MikeH72]

seriously people questioning Carlo Ancelotti.

you’re as bad as that blert Danny ‘extra from lord of the rings’ Murphy

Why are we not allowed to question him? Give me a real answer.

 

[Gilbert..]

We will see at the end of the season where we are, im not expecting much though

I expected mid table again. If thats the disapoinment you mean.
Think we have a mid table keeper. Mid table centre halfs. Mid table squad players who are being used again.
I will change my opinion if after another few windows and his signings come in and dont have any impact.

His decision marking and tactics for the last five matches have been, let's not sugar coat it, piss poor. He sorts it out or he is out; simple no?

I do not think that anyone truly would like to see him leave yet. But, I can understand why some fans are growing impatient. As many have said, it is reasonable to criticise and normal to feel disappointed after recent results.

Whatever happens, the fans will keep supporting Ancelotti and the team and hopefully things improve. 9th position in the table, where the team is now, is about where you would expect this team to finish at the end of the season too.

That would be disappointing as the team has wasted the advantage gained in the first games. But if you were looking at the teams you may expect to finish ahead of us, 9th is where the team are.

I'm sorry, that's just blatantly wrong. If we finish 9th we have MASSIVELY underperformed. You don't bring in Allan and James and give Carlo 11m a year to finish 9th. We brought in those players for the sole reason to immediately improve.

Well, not really. You've seen what's been happening at Everton for a good few years now, yeah?

To question him is fine with me.. but to suggest he shouldn't get an ample amount of time to do his thing is not.

Well, I am disappointed with Carlo so far. He has underachieved for my money and not lived up to the wages
he's getting. He gets a 5 out of 10 for me.

Signings: Paying 20+ million for a 29 year old Allan is nuts. Allan is ok but he does not have the engine or skill either to run a midfield or play box-to-box. Doucoure is a machine but he is not a creator. And getting James,
who is the most skilful player EFC have seen this century, means that because he cannot tackle or run back
the team has to be specially constructed. And that has not happened. The team needs a top right winger which
means that James has to play at no. 10. Can he do that?

Style of play: Nothing definable.

Game management and tactics: Average. He has fallen into the Silva trap of playing people out of position. And when will the team learn to take good, fast corners? We have three or four tall players but they rarely get decent delivery from set pieces. The tactics first half at NUFC were terrible totally lacking in ambition against a mediocre bunch.

I hear that manager at WHU is doing well...

Seasons only 11 games old.
As ridiculous as it was seeing champions threads on here after 5 games its just as much as people wetting the bed 5 games later.

His remit is Europe this year. He's said it before. If he finishes 9th he has completely underperformed.

What a rollercoaster of a season already though.

And then we appoint who?
We'll be back here again after another year....rinse and repeat. The problems with this club go deeper than the manager.

He could have us 12th again and some people will say it’s acceptable because it’s Ancelotti.

Yeah I said this the other day, whoever we had in at the min we need to at least let them see their contract out, bar any real threat of relegation.

We can’t just keep going through a never ending cycle of hiring and sacking managers.
Luckily for us, we’ve got someone in who’s got a cv to best most people in the game. Whether he’s showing that right now or not, is a different story.

I’m not saying he’s unquestionable, but for those who actually do want him sacked (very small minority), you should probably get used to him being here for the next few years.
