The Ancelotti Thread

In PL:

- David Moyes for me is a very good choice.

outside:

- Guardiola

- Guus

- Villas Boas

- van Basten

David Moyes, fair choice, but hardly unlikely.

Guardiola i like, but won't be available this summer.

Guus...already discuss a million time, so a no go.

Villa-Boas, again discuss a million time, another no go.

Van Basten.....that's a wild card. So you want this guy??

Out of all this, only Van Basten is available this summer....

Agree with Moyes - very underated. Martin O neill should also be mentioned but would not work with Roman. Guardiola wont take it, Hiddink don't want it, Boas is to young. You are also missing off Jose on the list, but he wont get it.

If I was putting money on it I would go for Van Basten, Hiddink is in Romans ear to give him the job but I think it would be a msitake and we would be back to square one....

Let me mention that David Moyes, Martin O'Neill and Van Basten are lesser coach then Carlo. And going for them we are going back.....

Only two names that makes sense are Guardila and Boas. But they are NOT available this summer.

[steve5221 91]

There are also huge rumors that Avram Grant will be back as director of football. How will that be recieved by the fans??

[neel 257]

Carlo's record against the 'Big' teams in the League speaks for itself tbh

Vs Man United: Chelsea 3-1 United

Vs Arsenal: Chelsea 3-1 Arsenal

Vs Liverpool: Chelsea 2-2 Liverpool

Vs Spurs: Chelsea 2-1 Spurs, 1 draw.

Vs City: Chelsea 1-3 City (This is poor, I know)

All in all, against the top 5, Thats Chelsea 11-8, and even at that If it wasn't for City it would be 10-5.

when these were played?

Edit: oh sorry I understand now

moyes or o'neil do not have the strong resume to manage chelsea. these types of coaches are very good but may not handle big ego and expectation. It will end up like roy hodgeson

Disagree about Moyes and O Neill - both of those r better than Carlo in my eyes. Just because they are British does not make them poor managers...

[Shane 2,275]

Since Carlo was manager.

If that's your opinion, then I am done talking to you.

Moyes is a good manager, but can't really stand him. Don't think he's Chelsea material though, Oneil however, i think he's a good one.

For him David Moyes and Van Basten are better then Carlo....

Anyone who said this, have not been looking at the sport for the last couple of years.

As David Moyes, and Van Basten have not done much club wise or internationally.

Heck even my candidate Marcelo Bielsa, has a better resume then Van Basten internationally.

Well we've got a good manager anyways, Van Basten is a no for me, Moyes the same.

It is fucking infuriating that we are discussing the future of a manager that delivered the double and not just that did it in unbelievable style aswell.

You need 3 years in club management to stamp your authority atleast give him the 3rd year see where it takes us, what makes me even more annoyed is that people still stick their heads up Jose's ass despite the fact in his 3rd year we had some seriously lame performances under him.

The Christmas slump

If Jose is so invincible why did it take him numerous attempts to stop us leaking goals for fun?

Liverpool 2-0 Chelsea Anfield 2007

I have been supporting Chelsea since i was 3 years old and i have NEVER seen us play that labored and bad and still aint, we looked like a conference team playing damaged limitations in a David V Galliath FA Cup match.

Newcastle 0-0 Chelsea and Chelsea 2-2 Bolton

Man.Utd were crumbling with injuries just drew at home to Middlesborough and were there for the taking instead of taking full advantage we labour to two avoidable draws.

Liverpool champions league semi final

Jose's refusal to take risk's in the second leg cost us a place in Athens.

We may have shown spirit at the Emirates but the damage was already done, Jose got it tactically wrong at times that season but did any one bash him no and why was that? because the fans have too much love and respect for what he did prior to that season to even think about it, so WHY THE FUCK CANT HALF OFF YOU DO THE SAME FOR CARLO? He has made mistakes this season (just like Jose did in 06/07) BUT HE DELIVERED THE DOUBLE IN RECORD BREAKING FASHION DURING HIS FIRST SEASON FOR FUCK SAKE.

emelano or whatever can not be a manager because he does not have necessary accreditation for that

Really? Did grant have?

If you want an ultra defensive team then O Neil is the man,,,always has been

[Kojo 4,676]

By the way could this turn out to be the the longest thread on the Harding Stand?, well it's good to break records.

[Kojo 4,676]

I'm just curious of what a man like O'neil could do with a lot of money behind him.

[Shane 2,275]

IF Carlo was to go, Which would leave me to probably breaking everything in my room and geniuly question why Roman is intent on fucking up with every good manager we had, The ONLY person I would like to replace him is Owen Coyle, He knows the English game, Has done very good jobs at Burnley and Bolton, gets the best out of his players, Plays decent football and I'd like to see what he'd do with Finacial backing.

I know it is your opinion but the whole point in posting on forum is to question others opinion so here is mine:

To say that moyes and o neill are better than a two time champions league winner and your clubs double winner is sonethig that baffles me. Oneill at Aston villa spent more than Chelsea did in the summer transfers and yet couldn't finish in top 4. His idea of playing the same first 11 throughout the season would exhaust our squad by February considering we play in 4 competions at a higher level. And you call him better than Carlo.

David Moyes is a good choice but at a bigger club with big egos and pressure of Europe he will struggle to perform. Some coaches are good at lesser teams with lesser pressure working with lesser budgets they get found out when they manage top European clubs.

Roy Hodson is a perfect example. Good with mid table clubs, bad at Liverpool had his ass fired and now good again at west brom

Same thing he did at Villa. NOTHING!!
