LOL

seedorf coaching kaka.

 

Yeah Stam will be the defensive coordinator while Kluivert will be the offensive coordinator with Crespo.

I suppose we can dream of having Maher and Klaassen.

are they going to wear headsets like they do in the nfl? :wee:

 

Seedorf seems to be the most likely candidate, the reports are intensifying.

I don't think there are going to be reinforcements because the squad is fine for the goal it will have in the spring, we're not going for a CL win or a Scudetto. Better to sell off some players, try to build a team out of those that are left and add quality in the summer.

 

i read on football italia that seedorf has all the credentialy to train. does that mean he has already completed the coaching licence?

what will happen to kaka? seedorf is said to favour 433.

 

Kaka would either play on the left side in the attacking trio, or even a possibility that he would play in the Seedorf position. Who better to learn from .

 

I'm not as thrilled anymore now I see names like Kluivert (is he gonna teach Balotelli how to party? lol) and Crespo being mentioned

 

I trust Silvio's 6th sense in football with coaches ... The error was when he didnt follow it and opted to keep Allegri

 

Not sure, Terim and Maldini werent great picks and Leonardo was an outright retarded choice and indeed the only one comparable to Seedorf in terms of experience.

 

Leo was Galiani's "choice" as Leo was close to "ask" for Baldi's job ... cesare was more of an interim and had one great Derby ... silvio's errors are not when he selects new young coaches, but when he gets emotional and nostalgic and gets back to old lovers - Sacchi, Capelo, he might do it with Carlo too, one day, Sheva, Kaka ...

 

Seedorf could play the 4-2-3-1.


I don't always agree with bono, but he is 100% correct :thmbup::thmbup::thmbup:

 

This is a great choice, young talented motivated for the job and new fresh ideas..

 

..and never coached a single game at any level in his life before.

Does he even have coaching liscence?

 

will he be the first ever black manager in Italy?

 

No

 

they are. its italy after all.

 

I really respect Seedorf even though he wouldn't be my choice at this point… but where are you coming from with "he is a talented manager" or speculating what his favorite formation might be?

 

Smart managers adapt formation based on the players they have. So whats this talk about the formation?

Coaches dont win matches and Seedorf has the same players as Allegri did. Dont expect any miracles.

Silvio didnt create great Milan teams by having 6th sense with coaches. He always created it by buying other teams best players. He stopped doing that many years ago.

The last thing xt needs is another back and forth debate on this subject :lala:

Seriously though, it is far too early to count "inexperience" as a knock against Seedorf. It is obvious he has none but let's see how he does.

 

:thumbsup:

We don't know how good Seedorf is but as a player his interview was always sensible. That's one advantage he has over Allergi

There are many Milan legend who has retired but management choice for Seedorf means a lot.

I am all excited for a new adventure.

 

Nope, it's Italy. Managing directors and referees win matches.

 

:loser:

 

Ancelotti also endorsed Seedorf, saying that someone who played in the midfield understands the game better than in other positions.

I would have liked to see Inzaghi get the job. Don't know why, but I think he will make an excellent manager, he has that confidence. I predict Milan will improve their results a lot, they are actually the best in Serie A in terms of possession and second in shots per game, so it is just a matter of time when they start winning more games, the wind of change will motivate them I'm sure.

 

^^ Look at that classy son of a gun.



Both Pippo and Seedorf are exciting choices in their own way. Inzaghi is doing it the traditional, and IMO the right way, by starting out in our youth teams. Hopefully he can get a job in Serie A/B next season and then be ready for the Milan job in a couple of years.

 

in some ways, this is even better now for Clarance - he takes a hopeless team with no goals (apaprt from avoiding relegation) or at least no serious expectations; have a chance to get few bonuses in (e.g. eliminate AtlM, win the Coppa) and has few months to simply learn on the job, then get his transfers (year right ) in, have a normal summer preparation and start the new season fresh but with some mileage on his CV.

 

Agreed. In some ways the pressure is off for him, relatively speaking of course. We should take the rest of the season as a bedding in period for him, and measure our expectations and criticisms accordingly. It'll be a learning curve but one in which I am sure he can gain important experience to take into next season. Welcome back, Clarence.

 

the thread needs this picture

 

Seedorf should look like that on the byline.

 

:rimshot:

Or a nice suit with those glasses. The only equal 'badass' coach we could face is Simeone, oh wait.. we will in february:strong:

 

Clarence has announced a press conference at 16:00 CET today.

 

Simeone looks like a street gang thug.

Seedorf is the king of cool.

 

I thought Inzaghi should have gotten the job... He has the intensity to do well. Seedorf hasn't even coached in Youth Leagues yet...
So I don't understand why Inzaghi was overlooked when he was doing well with the Youth team...

That's why. I'm happy they didn't chose Pippo, let him get some experience instead. Would hate him to get burned on this Milan.

Seedorf just announced that he is ending his playing career.

 

I wish Seedorf the very best of luck. Yeah, even at Milan. :groan:

He's a fantastic guy.

 

Aaaand he just announced that he is our next coach. Bentornato Clarence!

 

Done deal it seems, Best of luck for Clarence! Hopefully he'll be more appreciated as a coach than he was as a footballer in this forum by the way.

Everybody is talking about his intelligence now, but I seem to remember that huge part of posters here absolutely hated him, which I always found unfair.

 

Well I can only speak for myself. I wouldn't say hated him, but at least I was fed up with him in the last 2-3 years that he was here. It felt like he was too nonchalant, too slow and too static at times on the pitch and didn't put the work in. Then when Clarence left I realized how important it was to have a player like him in the midfield that could get past players and who could keep a ball within the team so easy. Just like Zlatan did in the attack.

Nobody ever called Seedorf stupid that I recall, but my feelings towards Seedorf at the end don't have anything with my feelings towards him as a coach. Especially since we just had Allegri at the helm
