Ancelotti talking about his style of management.
“Learning about the players’ character is the most important part of my job – you need to have different relationships, considering the character of the people”
“I want to have an open relationship with the players, I don’t want to be above them or below them."
“You have to be yourself when you manage a team. I am not a dictator, I am not a surgeon."
“I like to have a good relationship with my players and for them to be professional. I can control the players at the training ground but not in their private lives – and I don’t want to."
“They have to be professional because they have a responsibility to show their best to all the people who support them with a lot of passion."
“Now I have 25 players and most of them want to play in the games. You have to manage this because you need to keep the players motivated."
“The players who are not going to play influence the intensity of the training, they have to be motivated all the time if they don’t play. I understand that sometimes I have to be patient with them."
“Sometimes at past clubs their behaviour was not so good, not so professional, but I have to understand the fact that if the player does not play it is frustrating for him. I have to pay attention to this.”
