Is he though? He has his team playing a particular system, successfully might I add, and they have caused numerous teams problems over the years, punching well above their weight with a budget 1/10th of ours.
Some might call him one dimensional tactically inflexible stubborn.Definitely Atlanta have a good scouting system and youth system in place.

So, an Allegri with a smaller budget? :boh: :b81: I keed. I get what you mean, and he's definitely not had the success a top tier coach would have enjoyed at a bigger club, but I don't think anyone is disputing that he's worthy of a top bench, barring a few hipster buffoons.

One might perhaps call Gasperini the Immobile of coaches.

gasperini and his team punched above their weight for years. this is clearly a disappointing season for them, still, some of their previous achievements can only be respected. that squad was rarely top4 quality yet they made it multiple times.

Gasperini definitely has higher ceiling then Allegri due to training and attacking patterns.

It could begin slowly. The EPL did not turn super rich overnight. It all began under the purchase of Chelsea.
EPL transformation began with SAF and Wenger first, especially SAF, he made English football come out from their kick and rush dark age first, making them able to compete with the best league which was serie a at the turn of the millenium...

A similar story somewhat to the rise of la liga, it was Barca and Madrid that elevated their league first before slowly dominating...

You can have the best marketing and business capability but if there were no sports powerhouse teams in it that made the league worth to watch then nobody would want to watch and no foreigners would invest in the industry...
