Antonio Conte (105 Viewers)

That team trashed Barça 7-0 agregate, there was no comparaison at all, they were levels ahead of us, it wasn't funny.

Ofc it wasn't funny. It was humiliating to witness. The entire team pussied out and coach seemed incapable to alter his approach for the return leg, when we saw rerun.

He's emotional, close to his players, he jumps like a madman and celebrates every goal, the guy runs more miles on the sidelines than Rooney for instance, but how does he cope with defeats? I feel that someone that tense, and always on a verge of emotional outbursts will have difficulty processing defeats and that will eventually reflect on players. One of the things that made us great in 2011/12 is exactly why we looked terrible in Europe after two abysmal encounters vs Bayern. imho

How can you say he is the best coach when there are two world cup winners there?

This. Wtf

 

[zizinho]

Conte is definitely better than Low

No doubt it was one of the best CL teams I came across. Juup heynckes did an amazing job. I personally I'm not upset with the defeat to that incredible team but rather just accept there were many levels above us.

He's arguably the best coach in the Euros right now.

Lets see how far the best coach of the tournament takes his team.

At least you said arguably.

At least.

Of Benfica or draws against Danish teams. Failing to create a single chance against a team with a man down for half an hour, was disgraceful.

As for Bayern, it wasn't a defeat itself that was an issue. We can all agree that Bayern was a level above, but how we lost, never looked capable of endangering their goal. The entire game we looked well out of depth and passing the ball back to BBC and Buffon. One of the worst games I've witnessed. Humiliating.

Watch the highlights again. You are mistaking us for barcelona. We created plenty of chances especially in the first leg. Bayern's superiority showed in the second leg.

At least.

Who's better?

 

[lgorTudor]

Who's better?

The obvious ones are Löw and Del Bossque. The debatable ones are Deschamps and folks who made it to Euros with a dwarf nation

Low

And Del Bosque is Spanish version of Lippi right now

 

[Vlad]

These two have won more, but right now not many would prefer them to Conte.

Low is fortunate enough to have one of the most talented generations of German football players at his disposal, unlike Conte.

Conte is quite clearly the best coach in the tournament.

Conte worked on limited budget while on Juve and now he worked on limited talents while on national team.

It would be interesting to see how he would do with a team of unlimited budget/talents like Chelsea.

Del Bosque.

you mean Chelsea in 2 or 3 years at which stage he will be tired and sign for another club that he thinks is on the highest level only for them to collapse before he signs and he gets stuck rebuilding again. He will forever be re-builder.

Del Bosque.

Del Bosque's resume' beats anyone 2 CL titles, la liga titles, worldcup and Euros. He won it all.

Hopefully his ideas are outdated

I don't rate del bosque that much. He won the CL with one of the most talented sides to ever play in Europe.

Won the WC and Euros with the best team by a mile who were already European champions before he won anything and had Spain playing rather poorly compared to their previous coach.

Still a good coach but I wouldn't rate him as highly as others.

Won the CL twice within 3 years. That is no easy feat no matter who your players are. It would actually be miraclous if he did so with poor squads. Its also very difficult to win WC and Euros even if you have the best team on paper. They totally dominated that era of International football.

 

[zizinho]

Spain was better with Aragones in 08 than with del bosque in 10 and 12 though. del bosque simply continued the work of the man before him, he didnt do anything extraorinary with Spain, just what was expected of them

 

[lgorTudor]

Conte is a nobody on international stage who has yet everything to prove. It's disrespectful to put him in the same league with coaches who consistently put out results on the highest level of football, disregarding how much talent their squads might have had. Some enjoy their sandbox universe where coaches and players are judged in a vacuum based on arbitrary factors. But for me coach is only as good as the results he brings in the real world. Bonucci makes 5 good tackles against shitty EPL players and suddenly Conte is the best coach in the tournament. We can reevaluate him after the Euros.
