QUOTE (kurtsimonw @ May 19 2013, 01:24 AM)  Well it's different because 1. Carlo had the leagues best team and Jose isn't. 2. 1 title in 3 years is far superior to 1 title in 8 years. I don't "support" Mourinho, I just think labelling his time as a failure and taking into account how Barca did as a reflection is ridiculous. I pretty much agree with dst on the issue and we all know how he feels about RM/Jose. 1. Don't be so tight about it. Both Ancelotti and Mourinho had two formidable opponents in Juventus and Barcelona. 2. Ancelotti had a great team only for 4 seasons (from 02/03 to 05/06). Ever since Calciopoli our team hit a massive decline which was coupled with Sheva's departure, and only Kaká's miracle season in 06/07 allowed us to win that Champions League. |

Yes. And the competition was immense, totally different from today's Serie A or Primera. But nevermind, let's turn back to statistics.

Between the years X-Off mentioned I can't agree. Inter weren't all that amazing most of it, Roma and Lazio's title winning teams had disappeared. I think you're boss missing the point though. I never called Carlo's time in Milan a failure anyway. I just think 1 league title is a disappointing return with the best squad for half his time. Allegri got slaughtered for not winning with the wst squad last season. As for the CL. Ancelotti did an very good job in 03. The other 2 finals not so much, current day Europe is far stronger/sere a much weaker IMO. |

Today was officially announced that Mourinho won't coach Madrid anymore and today is also Casillas's birthday. Coincidence? (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

So Neymar to Barca is pretty much done. Will be interesting to see him in europe cuz hard to say how really good he is from Brazilian league numbers.

Can't say I've really seen him much. Against England he played like he's being controlled by a 12 year old kid on FIFA. He seems very greedy and I'm not sure that will work for Barca. Messi can be a ball hog, but he still makes the right passes. Neymar isn't Messi either.

Still early though to conclude since, despite that hype around him is going on for a long time, he's only 21 y.o. In Brazil he has a free pass to do anything he likes but in europe he will have to adapt to a different style.

They will kick his *** if he plays the same way at Barca (being selfish, holding on to the ball for too long, doing silly and unnecessary tricks that only amuses Brazilians, etc.).

Agree with Kurt the FIFA kids who love their trick sticks love him, he is literally the real version of it.

I think he will adapt well there. They have a squad of Champions, a wealth of experience, tradition and all that .. He has to play their brand offootball or he won't play. He also could be fielded ahead and latchess onto the through balls. |

He's a better fit for RM. He would have a bit more freedom there I reckon.

It's a no risk move for Madrid really. So long as they keep their core 5/6 players, almost anyone can play around them and they'll be fine. Fabregas, Sanchez and especially Alba have all been terrible, but it doesn't make a difference to them.
