Carlo's Magic. Why Ancelotti Keeps Winning?

He’s not crazy about tactics like Guardiola and doesn’t obsess about gegenpressing like Klopp. Yet Carlo Ancelotti is the only coach who’s won the Champions League 4 times and with 2 different teams.

Let me tell you more about the coach who can change a game by raising his eyebrow.

Carlo's teams are beautiful to watch. Always calm never getting in a hurry and taking the time to get good chances. Its impressive.

Carlo makes teams feel like family and they have a feel good factor in the dressing room. Players put their ego aside and play for each other.

I said it in 2017 when he won bundesliga, and im saying it again. He is the goat and severely underated

[ABCAizen]

Underrated manager in my opinion. Everyone is always talking about Pep this, Jurgen that, Sir Alex this and Jose that. Ancelotti is rarely mentioned when I look at Football. If Ancelotti wants to stay consistent, he will one day win his 10th champions league with Real Madrid lol.

He's the last one of a dying breed of coaches. Once he's gone it's all about Pep-and-Klopp clones obsessed with structure, position and pressing. I've been enjoying Ancelotti's work since the early 2000s at Milan and am trying to keep enjoying it while it's still possible. After he's gone, it will be hell.

“Quite a career” as a player? No shit 😂 I think you forgot to mention he won the UCL two more times as a player with AC Milan

[deutty]

Slight correction: Perez did not call him. He called inquiring about players available for sale only to find out Real were looking for a coach. He was the 4th choice! lol. It looks now like a stroke of genius from Perez but Madrid got lucky! Lucky that we got rejected by Allegri and the other top choices.

Gotta love the ancelotti prop. I think him being under the radar when it comes to goat coaches is one of the reasons why a lot of coaches fails as coaches. Every coach out there these days wants to be like pep or mou. Where they are the stars of the game rather than the players that actually play. They see a philosophy and think that it's the way of life and stick with it to the end. No wonder why zidane and now xabi are successful and is getting there. While hardcore disciples like ten hag, xavi and v.kompany are failing. They tie themselves to a system that may not fit the players that they currently have and in sport that is constantly evolving. Even the rules changes the game.

Ancelotti is a man manager, he can bring out the most from people. This is amazing if you have a great team but its not effective if you have a mediocre team. His calmness also very good in high stake matches like UCL but not always good on every sunday. He is great, and players play hard out of love for him and not out of fear.

Now After The Final Ancelotti Now Has 5 UCL's

[battlevain]

Carlo is humble and kind to his players. He creates a great atmosphere to play in and never ever seems to lose his perspective. He wants the best for his players and there is no ego about him.

[nevilo]

Don Carlo: I'm going to defeat you with the power of friendship, and this rise eyebrow I have.

PS: When Antonio Rüdiger arrive to madrid, the day before is presentation just 2 hours after the moving to the new house, he was preparig BBQ for lunch to his family, the doorbell rings, Antonio open the door and Don Carlo is there to welcome the new guy. He ends eating lunch with them and spend the afternoon talking and meeting all the family. Rüdiger say never before a coach treat him like this.

[PejaBog]

Don Carlo is the last Dj of football that once was.

[WilliamJMartinj]

Honestly even when he was still at AC MILAN back then, I have already considered him as the best coach of all time. He won 2 Champions League with the club and nearly won again in 2005 final only for Liverpool to make a comeback. With him in AC milan, the club is rank consistently as the top team in the world and dominate the Champions League every single season.
Now without him, AC milan are considered nothing and it was Real Madrid who consistently win the Champions League again and again.
He will win it again next year because there are many players coming in especially Mbappe, Endrick and Alphonso Davies.
Respect Carlo! The greatest manager of all time in champions League with 5 Trophies.

carlo makes every player play at their best

[runthatback]

He knows super well how to feed his players ego, players are happy and pumps up playing for him

[dr]

One of the best in terms of man management. Great coach

[olufemiolumilua]

Carlo's Ac milan & Chelsea were absolutely off d hook. Dis boss has won all big five league trophies and now six UCL trophies. 👍

[ibthisamyousaf]

He was even doing good job at everton.

[rockzsr]

Because the power of friendship. Duuuh
But seriously Carlo didn't forced his ideal on his team he sees what player he have what is their ability and play accordingly. He doesn't have quality Winger on his Milan days. But he have bunch of Playmaker and Center mid. so he play with Diamond. He doesn't have true striker now so he put his 2 winger up front and played one of his midfielder as false 10. He really brings out the best from Kaka, Inzaghi, Vinicius, Benzema, Bellingham and etc because he really knows them and how they wanted to play football. And that essentially is just friendship. It actually is the power of friendship
