Massimiliano Allegri (203 Viewers)

Third is a solid rating though, depending on who was before.

Zidane
Jardim
Allegri

for example seems sensible

Allegri over Jardim, obviously.

But yeah, Conte shouldn't have even been in the top 3.

He dominated the Premier League in his first season there, when everyone thought the title battle would be between Baldy and Jose.

It's hard to rate coaches, Zidane and Allegri did what was pretty much expected of them and their teams, which is tough when the expectations are sky high. Conte broke records and won PL in his first season there with a revolutionary system and Jardim surprised everyone with Monaco getting great results and playing great football. For me any one of these coaches deserve the prize.

He had much greater claims to the top coach award when he had an undefeated season with us in 11/12. Winning the PL with Chelsea isn't that huge of an achievement, they only won it two years prior with the same squad.

In the end it will always go to the coach who won CL (or WC/EC).

Buffon votes Allegri Coach of the Year
By Football Italia staff

Massimiliano Allegri received just five first place votes for FIFA's Coach of the Year, getting the nod from Gianluigi Buffon but not Giampiero Ventura.

The captain and Coach of each FIFA nation was asked to pick three tacticians to receive the prize, with their first preference receiving five points, second three points, and third one point.

Real Madrid Coach Zinedine Zidane won in a landslide, but perhaps more surprising is that Allegri, a double winner and Champions League finalist with Juventus last season received so few first preference votes.

Juventus and Italy captain Gianluigi Buffon voted for his club Coach, but Azzurri CT Ventura went for Diego Simeone, followed by Antonio Conte and Zinedine Zidane.

St Lucia captain Randy Poleon picked Allegri for his first choice, as did the Coaches of Bosnia & Herzegovina, Chinese Taipei and Taiwan.

A media representative from each country was also given a vote, but Gazzetta dello Sport’s Fabio Licari put Allegri in third behind Zidane and Conte.

Carlo Ancelotti finished seventh overall, with 3.62 per cent of the vote/

Utterly disgusting

Oh, he won the greatest unforced defensive error league, with all competition beeing buzy in europe or beeing poor


Allegri won our 6th scudetto, coppa and was '45 away from a trebble


What the fucking hell is your problem

 

[Bianconero81]

So, because he doesn't agree with you it becomes a problem? You really do enjoy being a cyber bully.

Allegri failed in the biggest game of our season, where we got annihilated 4-1 by Real Madrid. I'm not endorsing Conte as the best, but he also has a claim. Zidane won both La Liga and the CL, so he clearly deserves it.

Max out!

 

[Ventus]

Defence not as good, but attack best its been for a long time. If we can somehow fix the defence in January we have a shot at the CL again.

 

[Hængebøffer]

He really needs to figure out what to do about the defense. I don't like it at all. But this forum, ffs. The people moaning about the defense, are the same people who moaned about not scoring enough, when the defense was superb.

Got a feeling we monitoring Porto's right back, though that seems unlikely for January. any decent options would be cup tied.

 

[Boksic]

When we move the ball at pace we look dangerous, we have done it well in a few games this season but need to do it more.

Maybe they just want a balanced team and to improve on our weaknesses.

 

[MikeM]

There are some matches where I ask myself if we're a sleeping giant. We are scoring 3 goals per match so far this year while last year it was only 2. That kind of increase in attack is worthy of praise. Then you look at the defence and it's worse. But is it worse enough to negate our attack? I don't think that's true.

But the big factor for me is the RB position because last year we had Alves in the 2nd half and you could legitimately say that at times our RB was the best player on the pitch. This year, however, you can definitively say our RB (whoever it is) is easily the worst player on the pitch. Our RB is offering nothing in attack and nothing in defence.

So I wonder how much difference someone like Howedes makes. An option that offers nothing offensively but surely makes a big difference in set pieces and defensively. Sometimes going from the absolute worst option to average can make a big difference.

Then there are even smaller variables like Dybala's PK misses which have cost us 3 points. If he scores them, the "cracks are papered over" quite well. VAR decisions have not always been beneficial either.

TLDR: I think our ceiling is a lot higher than last year but we just aren't seeing it yet.

No. They want to moan.

Always on point.

Our attack is yet to be tested against a top CL club except for Barcelona, but it looks to me that although it's very good, it's not exceptional relative to the European powerhouses. We are not and won't be scoring as much in Europe. Hope to be wrong.

Revolutionary only in the prem. Those formations and tactics have existed in Serie A since prehistoric times.

If we have at least 4 of Marchisio/Khedira/Pjanic/Matuidi and Bentancur fit, we are set. The RB is still a spot for concern though.

our best shot is Meunier, he hasnt played a single game in CL yet so if it stays that way, hes the best we can do for January imo
