2020/21 Carlo Ancelotti

[dutchblue54]

I love our 4CB back 4. Absolutely rock solid. Hilarious when a winger tries to push and run Godfrey or Holgate.

That has been the masterstroke of this season for me. We conceded too many goals in the beginning, but scoring more. Then with the injuries to Digne / Coleman it all looked to fall apart. With the 4 CB's we have stopped conceding many goals. so digging out wins. Well done Carlo

Does it REALLY matter if it doesnt?

Does it matter if we start losing because these aren't sustainable? I wouldn't be happy about it.

If we keep winning anyway? Nah wouldn't care at all. I'd still be nervous every week going into the match but thrilled when we pull it out.

Siggy upfront was cancerous, but other than that, bravo Don Carlo

Baffles me this outlook.

People worry about the future and ponder on the past far too much and let life pass them by.

As a wise man once said "LIVE IN THE NOW".

The football ain't pretty but neither is this squad so we'll take the points baby.

It’s almost like he knows what he’s doing.

MoM for me easily . Once I got over my “ WTF” moment when I saw the team and we started playing I had faith in him . Tonight reminded me of the bit in Forest Gump when the Drill Sargent said “ God damn it, Carlo! You're a god damn genius! “

The most impressive thing for me is since he’s arrived have a think of the improvement in players:

DCL
Iwobi
Holgate
Yerry
Keane
Branthwaite

Making the club 10s of millions in value, he’s worth every penny of his wages.

I dont think you can include Branthwaite in this, but other than that I agree. He was bought and has spent most of his time with u23s.

Nah I mean like I'll be worried in that hour between the lineup and kickoff

Take a bow Mr. Ancelotti

You mad genius you

I don’t know mate, I think he improved game on game toward the back end of the season.

On Branthwaite though, he has a tough gig trying to get in ahead of Keane, Mina, Ben and Holgate. Hard to believe we were light there last season.

Man utd. Won every single away game this season. Clinging on at the end there v burnley.
You were going on the other week how we should be wiping the floor with them.
Bit of perspective isnt that bad.

Do I think CA probably helped JB in those games? Settle nerves etc, yeah probably, but we haven't seen any of him pre-ancelotti and not alot post-appointment of CA. He looks a talent and if big Mick can find form under CA (it feels like he is the perfect type of Cb for him), then there is a bright future for JB under him too.
