He is an average tactician at the moment, I don’t disagree in the slightest. But he has shown excellent team management skills. That alone merits the job for me. Tacticians evolve over time, he’s still very young.
Also genuinely good tacticians are very few in football in general. It’s an elite 5-7 coaches across the top leagues. The rest are all guys who do copybook tactical approaches to matches.
If we had real quality in couple of critical positions, we wouldn’t even be thinking of these things.
yep, I agree with this...but can milan afford someone who needs to grow in his role as much as the younger players?
I would hate to see him sacked btw, but I also doubt he's capable.
it's tough, hopefully he succeeds.
I love him to bits, but he is not the right coach to lead us back to CL at this point in time. We simply can't afford to miss out on CL next season. This season is the absolute limit. After that we're a certified midtable team and no proper player is gonna be willing to come here
You know that we are comfortably in CL positions if you consider just the 2nd half of the season? What makes you think that'll change if Gattuso gets a full season and moreover with a real striker?
There were maybe only 3 or 4 games where I was satisfied with the teams performance. Then there were a lot of games where we just shithoused our way to a result, and then there were a number of games where I could barely watch l.
He is too inconsistent and unproven. It would be too much of a gamble
That really wasn't anything to do with what I mentioned. I was talking merely points and 4th spot.
2nd half points: Juve 44, Napoli 37, Milan 35, Roma 33, Atalanta 32, Lazio 31, Fiorentina 30, Inter 28.
Sure, let’s revisit this after the next two rounds as well.
How convenient for your argument that the second half of the season started right at the end of the first 5 games under Gattuso, where he only got 5 points in 5 games, and right at the start of the 10 game streak without a loss.
Sacking Gattuso would be a horrible, horrible mistake. Give the man his own transfer window and better players first.

but great excuse when we were winning against likes of lazio and roma.
