Sarri

I Agree, but its also down to Sarri that he can't win dressing rooms over. There is plenty of evidence to suggest that he has poor man management skills and he lacks the communication skills to relate to a club's fan base. I believe these factors are what count against him having a more successful career.

He's a difficult manager to understand/get behind if you don't share his principles, and tbf those principles clashed with us from day one. If it didn't work instantly it was inevitable sections of fans would turn on him sighting ambiguous, unquantifiable arguments. I imagine the same thing happened at Juventus.

Does deserve a bit more respect though. From his standing base in football, the fact he's even managed clubs like Chelsea & Juventus makes him more of a winner (to me) than individuals who've got double/triple his trophy haul as managers

Fair points. I am surprised he isn't managing a club at the moment. His win percentage since 2015 is consistently between 62 and 66%, which is very good.

he had it perfect at Napoli ware the players were good enuff 2 b able too carry out his technical/tactical ideas but not to big that names that they didnt wanna do the hard work involved.

Thoughts?


Sarri got the credit he deserved and in equal measure the criticism he deserved at Chelsea.


Was on a path to destroying this clubs future prospects, self-defeating actions made his position untenable.

In an alternative reality(under Sarri)...could have ended up with:

Hysaj over Reece James
Rugani over Christensen
Vecino over Mount
Higuain over Tammy
Paredes over Gilmour
Hudson-Odoi gone

Not to forget about Kepa who Sarri scouted and endorsed (with the help of Pepe Reina), deemed worthy of paying a record fee (There is copous amounts of evidence to substantiate that Sarri requested the club sign Kepa, before anyone claims otherwise).
Which is the worst of the lot.

At Juventus...he was already at a disadvantage fighting a losing battle, given the rivalry and comments made whilst at Napoli.
Reminiscent of Benitez at Chelsea, fans were never going to embrace him.

I think his Napoli team is/was underrated, for how well they did. For two seasons he had them reach over 90 points both season if I remember correctly. They happened to be up against an anomaly of a machine of a team in Juve at the time, but for literally any other league at any other time what they did would be enough to be title winners by a large margin.

in his last season, we got enuff points 2 win 18 of the past 20 championships

Yesterday's news...couldn't care less really, hated most of his tenure, but fair play he did well...then facked off
