It's not the fact that he's not coached a big club that is what is held against him. But when you see that no big clubs are approaching him 25 years into his career, you'd probably take your blinkers off and see what I mean.
It's not about having coached a Barcelona. It's about having coached clubs from the other end of the spectrum. When youre in that environment, achieving 40 points at the end of the season is what everybody is overjoyd with. When you spend years doing that, your thinking is that much smaller. Your goals too. That's not Del Neri's fault, it's just human for that to happen. This guy for better or worse doesnt know what it takes to make the cut at a big club. In fact, I'd even discount that, if he didnt have 25 friggin years and nothing to show for. Unfortunately, after that long, your thinking is always a lot more set and rigid and not open to new ideas. It happens to all of us. Like I said, we are not a feeding ground for people to discover their talent. We are a team looking to win titles like we've done for over 100 years.
About Beppe and Del Neri, you can read my previous post. That's what i said, Marotta has adapted a safety first approach, because of his relationship with Del Neri. Hopefully, that's what I'd take most consolation in. A more cohesive approach on their front.
Again, read my post. That's what I said about Ranieri. If he didnt get who he wanted, and didnt come out and say it, that only went on to show that he wasnt somebody who could stand up for his ideas. And what he believed in, and was nothing but a mere puppet. We dont need that now more than ever. We need someone like a Capello who would get who he wants and do what it takes to make us win. Remember why Hiddink rejected Juve? Not because of the money alone, but because of how unclear the board was in articulating what they have in mind. He walked away, because he believed in his ideas and didnt agree with or understand those of the board. That's how winners are.
Yea, there's probably a better comparison between Ranieri and Del Neri, except, Ranieri's been at bigger clubs and probably achieved more in his time as coach. And we saw that despite his results he didnt have the respect of the dressing room by the time he was sacked. Zaccheroni on the other hand has actually won something, but he too is so passive that he cant motivate big players and big teams. That's just how it is. A big team needs a coach that can stand up to them. A coach who commands respect. And a coach who can tell them to shut up and play when they need to. Ferguson, Trappatoni, Mourinho, Lippi, Capello, Ancellotti? What do they have in common? They have the respect of the teams that play for them. They get the best of their players, because their players respect them and know that they know what it takes to win. Now dont tell me they're not available and we need to try someone new. If that's the case, then you're better off with the other people we've been associated with. Because some of them are winning wherever they go, and because the others dont have so much experience in losing.
PS: Dont tell me the speculation aggravates you. Dont read my posts if that's the case. When you speculate it's love. And when I do, it's sex? Fuck that.
