Flip Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Ligue Un Team of Season: Sirigu, Jallet, Thiago Silva, Nkoulou, Maxwell, Verratti, Matuidi, Payet, Valbuena, Aubameyang, Zlatan And here I've thought that Maxwell has been no more than average every time I've seen him.

Dinho lad Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Gutting for Fiorentina that would be. But I'm kinda pleased for Allegri, I like him. You like Allegri? Terrible manager. You're talking shit as usual. Allegri won the league with Milan with one of their most ordinary sides in recent years. This season, with another averageish side, and after a poor start, he gets them CL football. This Milan side is not match to their predecessors', yet he's still keeping them up there.

You think it was some type of amazing accomplishment to win the league with the worlds best central defender and a top 5 striker in the world and a Alexandre Pato before all the injuries? You can't use the word ordinary without comparing to the other sides. Give over Dinho lad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 add Robinho and Cassano (half a season) to that striking force and it was the best in the Serie A by a mile. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(Their first title since 2004) Yeah, "terrible manager". You must think the vast majority of managers are terrible, then. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flip Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Sorry for even getting into a discussion. A lot of people think Mancini is a terrible manager and he won the PL with City. Allegri had whether it was first, second, third, fifth, 50th or so a larger squad and budget than any other manager in that league. So while I apologize for using a hyperbole and calling him a terrible manager, I know he's not a good manager or that he has had an ordinary side to work with.

Flip Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Inter lost 16 league games this season. 16 Been absolutely horrible at times. Also they have that Juan guy at the back, can't bode well when you have a player who was terrible for Brazils Olympic team in your side. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ponsaelius Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Allegri isn't a bad manager, just not Milan standard. He belongs at a provincial or Europa League club.

Very few managers win prizes, consistently, with average players. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope, that's where he belongs. You might not agree, but I saw a lot of his Milan that were champions and they weren't by any means a good team side. They were just like us last season highly dependable on individual brilliance. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Allegri has had the best squad to work with for 2 of his three seasons with Milan. One league win is definitely not good enough for what he has to work with, and there is no wonder why they're on the decline. Can definitely see them missing out on CL next season if he's still here.

Mole_Toonfan Posted May 19, 2013 Share Posted May 19, 2013 Wow. I think the comments on Allegri are really harsh, he's an extremely good tactician who quite frankly Ibra aside had a team full of dross last season in midfield and offensive positions. This season he has turned the season around from mid table struggles to 3rd place and if you look at their results since Christmas i bet they are close to Juve. He is slowly but surely building a good side at Milan and it needed an outstanding 2nd leg performance for Barca to knock them out. Plus he has done really well in getting rid of the old heads and building a new and youthful Milan team which have a bright future in front of them. If he was bad as you are all saying then he wouldn't take Milan to 1st, 2nd and 3rd in his 3 full seasons as manager and with quite a massive turnover of quality and quantity in his 3rd season.

Even more than Milan did at the previous season. Anyone that has watched Juve regularly under Conte, would realise that they are, in Italy for the moment at least, a class act. I don't expect you to agree since you've got a thing against Juventus anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
