The English media are full of shit. 2 or 3 bad games and they will crucify him. They love to build someone up just to knock them down.

Yup — he'll be lambasted by next season once their form tapers a bit

Which will happen as teams slowly figure them out. But it's nice to see coaches try different things. Anything.

De Zerbi is fast becoming the darling of EPL commentators and is hailed as the second coming of Jesus in EPL








Here is a question : which Italian coach had the biggest impact in premier league?

for me it is Conte, rarely any EPL team used a three man defence in the two decade prior of the season 2016-17 (Antonio first season @ Chelsea), four man defence was the default with the 4-4-2 the most used tactical setup. By 2020, the 3-man-defence was enjoying a revival as almost one third of the premier league were using the 3 man defence as their primary set up .

and of course a big shout out to Mazzarri who forced Conte to switch his tactical system in the famous Juve -Napoli of 2012

I think it was less about Mazzarri and Napoli forcing him to change it and more due to the fact that back then we had world class CBs and CMs but we didn’t have enough qualify in wide midfield/wing positions to play his preferred 4-4-2 or 4-3-3.

So the 3-5-2 let us play our best all at once and gave us more solidify in all areas of the field.

Any team with 'Arry and DDG in it is handicapped.

Lol too bad I doubt they'll hold on — hope I jinx it. I won't be able to watch rest of the game

Should have started Turner.

Should have started Turner.

I don't even need to watch the match or know who else is starting instead to know this is true.
