L72 419 Posted Wednesday at 15:07 Share Posted Wednesday at 15:07 3 minutes ago, Frankie said: Some less than subtle pressure being applied by Ancelotti's management team it seems. Rangers might not mind as it may also serve as a useful opinion poll. One suspects the next week should offer some clarity on both this appointment and the takeover. Will that appease Davide? From the above interview with Don Carlo, I think it's actually him rushing things. Like decide what needs done because are you going to be my assistant at Brasil or not. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That comes not only from being by his father's side at Bayern, Napoli, Everton and Real Madrid, but from a personal conviction that clubs should build lasting cultures, not just chase quick wins. He wants to leave behind something enduring- an identity, a structure, a way of working that survives his departure. Ancelotti envisions a technical staff built not around a strict hierarchy of "manager" and 'assistant," but a group of five or six specialists, each focused on a specific area of the game. It's collaborative, long-term and methodical.' Interesting... Not chase quick wins? He'll be gone by October then. Whoever comes in needs quick wins, if he wins the league next season he'll be given medium-term, but short of the Treble and a European final he can forget about "long-term" at Rangers. He must surely know that. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Quick wins will get everyone behind him and buy him the time to implement longer term ideas. The average tenure of a manager in the SPFL is now just 16 months. You have to assume everyone applying for our job knows that before they apply. Talk of long term plans is for the birds, if we're not challenging for the title next season the knives will be sharpened. I'll predict that by the end of September if the side isn't playing well and winning the games it's expected to win there will be voices on here, and elsewhere, demanding change. I mean his Dad won the league and the Champion's League last season and was sacked this season, so I suspect Ancelotti Jnr understands this. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just thought the idea of having a 'group of five or six specialists, each focused on a specific area of the game,' was interesting. It maybe deserves its own thread. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hah, yeah it probably does read like that. Apologies. My Rangers infused misanthropy is hard to hide currently, eventually they break us all. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott7 6,884 Posted Wednesday at 16:19 Share Posted Wednesday at 16:19 Modric really would be ending his career if he comes here. I know he’s a tough little devil but sledgehammered by September is the likely outcome. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

So i take from that , that any new manager will be given time ,regardless of results. It could get messy very early on. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
