2019/20 Carlo Ancelotti

[SpongeBob brown shoes]

Carlo Ancelotti is just a charismatic Sam Allardyce.

Haha LOL

 

[Toffee-nerd]

There's been a quantifiable improvement in defence, attack and results. But apart from those, no

Great post.

Carlo player manager

Tbf, he'd probably still do a job compared to some of the jokers we have

 

[AussieToffee11]

Sidibe is absolutely awful

You see how Gomes and Davies played? Agree it’s like picking the best of a bad bunch. But I prefer the five at the back.

 

[COYBL25]

He’s not exempt from criticism.

we’ve been bossed and outplayed in every game since the restart apart from Norwich who we looked about the same level as.

We have NO discernible midfield.

Suggestions on a stamp please.

Tbf to Carlo he dug us out a point there with the shift to 352 we have to be much much better but the lack of a home crowd and a midfield means we look like the away side in every game.

Euro is gone now but under Silva we would lose today. Need the boss to back Carlo to buy qualities.

He’s inherited crap, nobody is turning on him, stop wetting your nappies ladies. He is however open to scrutiny as is every manager / player.

 

[EFCPaul]

If this were Ramsay's Kitchen Nightmares he'd have lashed everyone out the door and shut the place down.

 

[billyblue80]

We have to play with three midfielders until we can buy none of them are good enough to play 442.

Exactly this. Even with the dross he has in front of him he needs to get a better tune out of them.

As I’ve just written, we’ve been bossed in every game since the restart apart from Norwich. How is that an improvement? We look absolutely woeful for at least 70 mins of every game.

Compared to before he took over, we have scored more, conceded less and put more points on the board. Yeah, it's not scintillating, but games with Davies, Iwobi and Sigurdsson as your midfield rarely are. I'm willing to give Carlo Ancelotti more than a year before casting judgement

 

[Big_nev]

He's gone from coaching some of the best players in the world to having to switch up his formation at half time because our midfield can't tackle, press or even pass. From Seedorf, Kaka and Pirlo to Davies, Iwobi and Gomes, no wonder he looks bemused on the touchline sometimes. Some of our lads can't even get the basics right.

We have been shockingly bad in every game, don’t pretend we deserved to win against Leicester for starters

Liverpool - First match back, kept it solid and comfortable, should have won with the Davies chance.

Norwich - 3 days later. Poor first half. Shifted formation second half, raised our game to win.

Leicester - Came out flying, two goals up. Shifted it around second half when they came back in to it to ensure a victory.

Spurs - Two poor performances. Lost to a deflection.

Southampton - Looked better than us for most of it.
