Frank de Boer

[Matt90]

He was good at Ajax for the first couple of seasons in an abysmal Dutch league then was constantly criticised by their fans for playing side to side football with no end product. He was a free agent for a reason, would do well at a mid table club was never a good appointment for Inter. It was just an act of blind faith just like Strama and many others since Mourinho.

Frank de Boer has rejected the opportunity to manage the Dutch national team according to Sky Sport. After his experience with Inter he would like to pick himself back up at club level. de Boer isn’t the only one to reject the chance with Everton’s Ronald Koeman also doing so in favour of staying in the Premier League.

On the one hand, he doesn't want to be the captain of a sinking ship and ultimately (and unfairly) be blamed for Holland's failure to reach Russia 2018. On the other hand, I'm not sure if he'll get any other high-profile job such as coaching the Dutch NT anytime soon.

Are de Boer and Koeman even the right coaches for them?

 

[Quantum]

Well, De Boer was assistant manager during Van Marwijk's tenure, so he knows the pressure, environment etc.

If he's the right man to motivate the players or to grind immediate results, well, given what happened at Inter, probably not.

 

[ScottishInterista]

Rangers will sign him if nobody else does and their manager (who supports and used to work for Celtic) does shit

I wish you the best,however even with a different coach,if you won't work together things won't change

but it's the coach at fault thoblivious:

The mgmt in headless chicken mode and no one who can control the turds of players we have...bene bene

fdb was a clueless stubborn fuck who had no right to be at inter ever

I think the problem with De Boer was that he tried to be a general without having experience & stature to back him up. No one wants to take shit from someone that hasn't been proven. Now if you put someone like Conte or Simeone there and you'll have different results.

But the thing is every manager had to start somewhere. Simeone had to start, Conte had to start. They didnt just become proven overnight. You need players who aren't little bitches and listen to instructions

No, you need to start somewhere, not at a big club. Thats why people like Sarri, Allegri, Conte, etc, have actually been working out well.


I'm a massive fan of younger kids getting experience in Serie B, just like I am managers getting a few years of hardcore experience in. Working in relegation fights, promotion fights, etc, are really great ways to build character. You dont crumble under the first sign of serious pressure.

Strama was doomed the second we threw him into the team as a permanent appointment, because he had fucking 18 months? of coaching experience at any relatively serious level.

The flipside of that problem is that for every Allegri/Conte, you end up with a Moyes or Gasperini.

But Simeone or Conte didn't start acting like generals the second they got to their first big teams.

I'm missing something

 

[Quantum]

We're talking about De Boer as if he landed the job Football Manager-style, choosing to coach a big club right from the start. But it's not like he had diddly-squat on his résumé like Stramaccioni, the man had successfully coached Ajax for six years before joining Inter, which should count for something - at the very least as experience.

Yes, he made a lot of mistakes and came out too heavy-handed on the disciplinary front, specially with that Kondogbia sub against Bologna. But management was a mess back then and they were unwilling to commit to a coach that clearly had not been an unanimous choice. The lack of proper support coming from above also had a role in his failure.

 

[firmino]

De Boer was a bad idea simply because he needed time: new league, a new (for Inter) kind of football. And he didn't even manage summer physical work. I'm not saying with time he would have succeeded, just that time was a non sufficient yet necessary condition in his case.

 

[Cómi]

Not to mention that the squad is unsuited for possession football.

Sometimes watching us i feel like our squad is unsuited for football itself.Period.

 

[JJM]

^what he said...

 

[Nyall]

Frank however shit he was at least tried to integrate our youngsters into the team.

 

[Pharaoh]

at some point we have to stop blaming the coaches............it's the same cycle EVERY single coach string of decent results followed by the waterfall of shit results and never being able to recover from it

Some coaches don't even get the luxury of a string of decent results i.e. gasperini

My point is that we have to stop thinking this is JUST a head coach problem. There has to be something else going on here.........whether it's a cultural thing or a locker room thing or a management thing I have no fucking idea, but there's something else that's wrong with our club the past 7 years.

Fuck it dude maybe it's just a curse
