Some are treading a fine line here with some potentially serious libellous comments.
It’s actually quite disgraceful due to having a different opinion on a football manager.

I respect your opinion and respectfully disagree. Managing Maldini and the like is easier than managing Coleman and Sigurdsson. World class players do the work for you.
Isn’t it against forum rules to personally insult other members and accuse them of stuff that isn’t true?
because I’ve had some terrible stuff said to me already.

I think we came away from that model to try and give Carlo the tools to get us into Europe, however all our main transfers have been injured for long periods effectively leaving him the same midfield as last season and before which isn't good enough by any stretch.
Too many injuries too key players and we get this because he doesn't trust the fringe players to perform so he shuts up shop instead.

It's very unforgiving for new posters like I say stick to your guns. On this subject though you won't get many supporters, I agree the insults are a bit much like.

I’ve reported the said comment, so we shall see. It sets a precedent if such allegations are thrown about for a laugh.
I’m disgusted in @Brisan123 actually. Disagreed with him numerous times but thought he was above that.
That’s fair. Like I say let’s see what the summer brings - but if Carlo is still serving up this terrible football next season AND still getting schooled by the likes of Steve Bruce then the fans will turn.

I think in a years time if it is still the same people will ask questions definitely.
Good grief. This post has a few of my all-time worst footballing cliches.
“imagine them having to work in an ICU!” - Why?
“blah blah blah Instagram and TikTok” - What has that got to do with ANYTHING? You do realise all players throughout history have had private lives outside of football, modern players are just more visible (through fan engagement, which we praise them for when times are good). Do you expect every player to shun their friends and families and just wallow in a pit of despair after every loss?
“PASHUN!” - Who cares if Keane was a passionate player? He’d be a crap manager! How would Dyche’s hoofball help the fact that our best midfielders are injured? Might get us a result or two in the short-term but if you’re suggesting he’d be better for us longer term that CA you’re a legit madman.
The vast majority of teams are struggling more at home this season. It’s mad to me how pundits and fans will marvel over the much-improved away records of X, Y and Z but not put that together with the dip in home form across the board, too. Increased regularity of games (and the injuries that come with that) and a complete lack of fans/atmosphere has been a huge equaliser.

Carlo isn't beyond criticism but he is far beyond some of the ridiculous shouts that infer he is some sort of fraud who has had some sort of brain transplant which means the very brain that delivered numerous trophies - can't adapt to a club which contains players who he wouldn't have considered good enough to train with the substitutes from his previous sides.
Maybe he trusts his players to see out a one nil lead against a side fighting relegation and maybe he trusts his strikers to finish one of the 7 clear cut chances.
My biggest level of annoyance with Ancellotti is disappointment - my biggest level of annoyance with previous managers was pure anger.
Maybe it's his numerous top level trophies and massive respect of nearly every player he's managed thats kidded me into feeling this way. He's got a good few Davie Moyes "circle the wagons" or Koeman "do you know who I am" matches before I start questioning if we could get any better.

A few? I thought I did a good job of getting all the best ones in!
To counterbalance this. He has also schooled Klopp at Anfield. We will have much better options next year and much less dreck in our squad with the departures this summer.
*Checks notes*
Anyone would be better than the divvys we had at the weekend.
Give some of the u23s and u18s a chance - the season is over now anyway!
You did a good job, tbf, you just missed out blaming poor performance on players’ haircuts and the suggestion that we bring in a crap player/manager from a good club because they’ve got “winning mentality” (you came close with that last point but just missed out!)
And to counter that, potter and Scott Parker also schooled Klopp at Anfield. Means nothing.
