Class act. Gave all credit to his opponents, never criticised his own team. Already saw ways to improve himself, his mindset and his tactics... This is how people get better, they suffer a loss.

[olliemac]

Always a world class manager and always a class act.

Don Carlo
One of the Greatest managers

That wasn’t a defeat. That was total and utter domination in every aspect.

[Kingsta]

Carlo Ancelotti gracious in defeat, he knew his Madrid team were outclassed by a superior City. Never making any excuses, he is a world class manager. His presence is missed in the EPL that for sure.

Humble in victory and gracious in defeat.

Ancelotti is never salty. He remains one of my all time favourite coaches.

Carlo is a legend and I give him massive respect for their season last year and his ability to push this shaky team this far this year. My god how good will they be next year if they have good signings.

[buddhastl]

Unlike Madrid fans, most of their players and Carlo are class. Respect.

[sourabhchakraborty]

Keeping Rudiger out was a poor decision

[gordonfreeman]

No matter what team he’s running, I always have respect for this gentleman 👌

[S-A-M-]

An underrated manager who’s seen & done it all in Italy, France, England, Germany, & now Spain a football manager icon

[Pryza]

Top bloke. Hope to see him back again next year

[kanerichards]

Odd leaving rudiger out but carlo ancelotti is a legend and huge respect to him

[NorthWalesKid]

Anyone can be gracious in victory but true class comes with grace in defeat

[graypliskin]

This man doesn't get enough credit, he is a legend as a coach.

I find it interesting that when British football fans and media see Ancellotti, Guardiola and Zidane they see shamans, mystical footballing geniuses able to seeemingly articulate profound footballing insights and command instant respect from fans and players alike and yet when the same British fans see Lampard and Gerrard they see chancers, blagging their way into management based on their glorious playing days and contacts made along the way.

And yet Zindane, Ancellotti and Guardiola all started as players too! It seems perfectly natural, when seen from afar, that a club playing legend should evolve into a club managing legend.

And yet we DESPISE anyone trying to follow the same path here in the UK.

Its no wonder there are so few highly successful English managers. We want them to fail BEFORE theyve even picked a squad. In Europe it seems the opposite is true.

WHY IS THAT?!?!?

[ljacobs]

Real probably needs to rebuild now, but City is a class act.

[SB-ndso]

Don Carlo this is a genius of the game nothing but respect even in the defeat he still comes out a winner very respectful honest insight respect Don,

I like carlo as a manager, he's obviously one of the greats. But the first half was inexcusable. I don't care how good of a team city are Real Madrid should not be allowing them to have that much of the ball and when getting it, losing it instantly.
