Not a bad thing. The PL is the hardest league in the world and it would be best to get someone who knows about it. Not keen on Allegri as he has no experience of the PL and the teams he managed in Italy were far superior than the majority, in a much more poorer league. I'd go for someone like Arteta, Anchovies or Poch, even Rafa. In the meantime, i reckon the team will respond positively to Freddie and i can see us back to winning ways.
Ancelotti. I think he has consistent done well with Chelsea when he was in the PL. To be honest he didn't do much wrong before getting sacked. He's a good man manager, solid tactician and has great experience across all the major leagues. He's never done badly where ever he's gone and is good enough to get us into the top 4 and far in Europe, making us into a more solid and consistent team. I think this is a realistic expectation.
C'mon - How is this argument still going? Wenger when he came to Arsenal = No Premierleague Experience Mourinho to Chelsea = No Premierleague Experience Klopp = No Premierleague Experience Guardiola = No Premierleague Experience In fact ALL of the best managers since the the start of the EPL have come from another league. I dont think there is a Premierleague manager aside from Mourinho capable of challenging Klopp and Pep. We are better looking elsewhere IMO. What makes you think Pochettino will imrpove on what he did at Tottenham? Nuno at Wolves may not be anywhere near the top level. Same for Rodgers. At least with Allegri, Anchelotti or Ten Hag we know they can build and manage elite sides.. we have seen them do it.
How the **** is Nuno only 2 years older than Vieira and 3 years older than Freddie? Christ I feel old.
