Allegri was great but he was not a coach that wanted to control the game with the ball ALL THE TIME. Sarri might not either though. I do think Sarris style is ,ore proactive offensively and relies less on our defensive shape to produce situations for us to get to goal. Sarri can also be picked apart by having his press bypassed and not work effectively.
There was a good article I read a while back about the debate of possession vs position. Basically every coach wants to control certain parts of the game. Having possession doesnt have any impact on the game statistically until its over 63% by itself. Saying that it relies on having possession in meaningful areas of the pitch. and also controlling where the other team has their possesion.
Thinking off my head on the Inter game. They had more possesion than we did statistically but where was their possesion? Was it in our 3rd of the field with good link up around the box leading to chances? I think our possession was much more meaningful.
Bringing this back to Sarri vs Allegri- I think both of them had ideas about how to limit meaningful possesion while also having ideas about creating chances for ourselves.
If Sarri can control the game the way his style wants we should have a lot of possesion in meaningful areas and have a boatload of chances eventually.
Allegri when he controlled the game perfectly gave almost nothing away and controlled not only the pace of the game but also where he allowed you to play and that led to chances and Danger for us.
So I dont think its wrong to say Allegri was more defensive or that Sarri is more offensive but its incorrect to say Sarri is ok with a completely open game with loads of chances from both sides where as Allegri wanted 3 chances all game.
