Ok if there is another JM thread out there just merge, shoot me etc etc
.
I wanted to intelligently (sorry mASStermark we haven't developed the translator yet
) discuss the pros and cons of the "Special One" instead of the silly rhetoric "JM=god
", "JM sucks" or the ever popular favourite "Anyone except Anshitloti".
I will attempt to list the pros and cons of JM and be as objective as possible (Well as much as an Ancelotti groupie can of course
)
PROS:
1) If JM is KNOWN for anything it's consistency (we haven't had that in a while)
2) Arguably increased probability of league success
3) Definitely the squad will be improved as only the fittest and the most in form will get in. Oldies will be booted. Liabilities will be sold.
4a)Ba will win FOUR WOPY/Golden balls consecutively muwahahahahaaah
4b) #4a Will NEVER happen as Ba will be auctioned on Ebay for an even more faggotty looking scarf
5)Width will be restored and the likes of Quaresma will wear red and black
6)Mourinho will SURELY get a new GK and there will be a collective sigh of relief among most.
7)He won't take shit from B&G and demand what is required
8)Our team will for the first time in years be able to compete on all four fronts
9)Most likely we'll acquire more Italian talent and less brazilians
10)Paloschi will be properly nurtured for sure
CONS:
1) Mourinho can be a bit of a bad ass at times and this may erode the family atmosphere somewhat
2)Kaka might end up suffering as do many CAM'S under Mourinho who prefers wing play.
3)The finer elements of the game tend to get lost in his workmanlike displays......manytimes you could watch a Chelsea game and fall asleep even though they are winning 3-0
4)He is not a true rossonero unlike MVB, Ancelotti, Rijkaard, Guillit.....his enduring love for Chelsea is kinda distasteful....plus he wants to become an international coach at some stage
5)I am wondering whether he has the patience with artistic players like Pirlo, Kaka, Pato and Seedorf. I can see at least two of these getting frustrated with him and his returning the favour by benching them.
6)If JM does resurrect Gila, he and many attackers will dramatically increase the quality and quantity of diving.
7)Mourinho's textbook football seems ill suited to Europe.
8)On a personal level its' borderline nauseating to bear his arrogance at times
9)A coach with little sentiment......his all buisness approach will not tolerate any special treatment to even the legends. This is good for practicality sake but reduces the romantic allure of Milan. Who else takes such care of players even if they are slightly past it. Milan's humanity is second to none. We are a team that win big and lose big.......consistent is good but can be boring. Mourinho will never for instace allow Maldini to play and rightly so. However the charm will be gone. We have to ask ourselves are we a ferarri (exotic, romantic, beautiful, impractical, unreliable) or are we a WRX (manageable, reasonable, consistent great but nothing out of the ordinary)
10)Potential fallout with management will always loom as two of the biggest egos in football clash (again)
