Yeah that was quite an achievement wasn't it? Buy one of the best Italian ergo World defenders around, add one of the most consistent mids and top it off with arguably the most promising attacker around. Congratulations : you are a genius. Of course the rest of the team was just serie B material, just like the Milan of the Invincibles in the early 90's, that oh so piss poor Real Madrid to which he felt necessary to add Suker, Mijatovic & co, or a Roma with tens of millions to waste at the time (still took him 3 years to win something there though, and when Sensi's purse started leaking he decided to leave....ummm I wonder why?)
Look, it all boils down to this : coaches don't win games, players do. Coaches can only lose games by making stupid mistakes, and for the money they earn, they simply shouldn't be allowed to make them.
