With AC Milan considering parting ways with Paulo Fonseca, a decision must be made about who a potential replacement may be. However, there seems to be a difference in the ideal candidates from the management’s and the fans’ perspectives.
It is fair to say that in the summer, Fonseca was not a favoured candidate, and now, his future at the club looks short. He has failed to change perceptions of him and his football, and now Milan are in a difficult place.
The Rossoneri have only won once in their opening five competitive, the other four games have been immensely disappointing, and they have deserved to be beaten in each of them, even if they salvaged a draw in two games.
If a replacement is to arrive, it must be a coach that the fans and the management aligns with, and at present, it seems there is a difference in the favoured successors.
As Corriere dello Sport (via PianetaMilan) reports, the management would prefer to appoint Edin Terzic or Thomas Tuchel, and the latter has offered his willingness to negotiate to the club. Alternatively, the fans would prefer a domestic option, seeking Maurizio Sarri or Massimiliano Allegri as the next head coach – this viewpoint could also be held by Gerry Cardinale.
I promise you if these clowns pull off Tuchel, no one will complain!
Bullsh!t. No to Tuchel, Sarri or Terzic. Only Allegri can get this team straightened out.
Stupid zion you’re not real milan fan, tuchel, tarzic and sarri all better than allegri
Allegri can only make us park the bus. Then what?
We kick him when we are out of the CL?
Speak for yourself.
Tuchel is German Roberto Di Matteo
you have 4 realistic options from the available coaches:
Tuchel, who won UCL and coached at EPL, at Bundesliga and at Ligue 1 top teams… won tons of trophies and is quality tactician…
Xavi, can bring most of Futuro, has coached one of the worst teams Barca ever had and turned them into LaLiga winners and UCL semi-finalist (but the latter was ruined by Araujo)… he’s the reason Cubarsi and Yamal got promoted and developed them into top talents and also greatly progressed Fermin Lopez and Gavi careers
Sarri, classical Italian experienced coach who has a team of his dreams and I agree with said statement that I found in another article. plays beautiful attractive football, but his last 2 stints weren’t as good…
Finally, Sergio Conseicao… idk much about him but he developed quite a few talents at Porto, is a great leader and I really liked how Porto played attractive attacking style in UCL
2 challenges now for you:
1) Who is another available coach that is worthy of Milan? you can use Transfermarkt if you need to…
2) Out of this 4, rank them from top to bottom…
Tuchel is useless coach he can’t be even the list anyone else but not tuchel
name another one… Klopp and Pep aren’t coming ffs…
I don’t see any reasonable fan that would not be happy with Tuchel. He would be a top level coach for a long term project.
Tuchel will disturb the dressing room, not an ideal option for long term.
Fonseca is a bad option but with this team finishing 4th will be a miracle for any coach.
Average CBs
Poor RBs
No holding Midfielders
No playmakers
No domestic players
The dressing room need to be destroyed & reassemble.. so much divas..
Tuchel needs to disturb their sleep in the dressing room.
I am all for Tuchel but he will need more than just the rest of the season no matter how the results are.
He is a CL winner and have a huge experience with world class teams and players.
He can show Leao what is required to be more than average.
Right on. 100% correct.
Bayern and Chelsea were fooled into thinking that.
He won the Champions League with Chelsea. Bayern Munich never needed him, it was Kahn and Salihamidzic ego that let them down.
He fluked that final
You say that based on?
Abraham and Pulisic both have bad blood with Tuchel.
Their careers at Chelsea pretty much stalled under Tuchel, despite having been successful previously
Redbird have ripped the soul out of this great club yet many here are still supporting these bankers! First, they dismantled the Scudetto winning team, got rid of the one person that won is the first Scudetto after the benter era, they brought in mediocre players and then a mediocre coach not to mention a clown (Ibra) they have an accountant who has no clue on running a football club yet no sporting director and Ibra who’s loyalty is to redbird not Milan since he works for them.
To all you who love redbird I hope you enjoy a few more years in the wilderness.
You Nailed it. I agree 100 percent with you….. My nickname for them is Red Turd Capital. They have destroyed this club. Maldini was dishonored and no decent Italians even on this team.
👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I am sure all the fans would be ecstatic with someone like Tuchel! It would be understandable if he doesn’t want to touch this mess with a 10 foot pole though…
No we won’t be. Tuchel is a disaster and he made a mess of very good Bayern Munich team. He was lucky Terzic is a soft coach who couldn’t even draw or win the last game of season which is why Dortmund loss the Bundesliga title to Bayern Munich who didn’t deserve to win it.
Both of these coaches would be the wrong answer.
Only Allegri can fix this defense problem and lack of confidence and motivation from our players.
Sarri is soft as a baby’s ass and his team concedes too many goals. So a big no to Sarri as well.
Agree. Allegri would be the ideal coach
Please no more.. Allegri out!!!..
defense is never a problem for this squad, it is the midfielders who were clueless and don’t know how to distribute the ball to the front and fight in the middle.
The sad truth is, there isn’t a name universally appreciated because most clubs were proactive in due time to snatch the likes of Motta, the likes of Conte. Even Gilardino would have been a good option.
Young progressive minds (outside of Conte of course). I don’t even know who to bring it at this point to stabilize the team…
Klopp?
YES, maybe Klopp is what we need… since the caliber of players are suitable for 433 formation and transit the team to play a more attacking aggressive and compact football with his philosophy. (Mass attack, Mass Defense) style of play.
We can see the biggest player under him MO’Salah track back to defense in lose of possession. If Leao fails to do that Klop can easily replace him with an unknown quality player just as he did when Sane left he bring in Diaz

Naglesman was doing pretty well at Bayern when he was dumped for Tuchel. Tuchel who promptly managed to win Bundesliga to the exclusion of all the other opportunities there.
Tuchel who didn’t win a trophy last season. Dumped from the Pokal by a B2 team.
Tuchel who regularly tosses the players under the bus then demands new expensive players. Then moans when he doesn’t get them.
Is that the Tuchel “all the fans want”? Sorry but not this one.
We have a young team who can play beautiful football. Xavi, Potter & Terzic seem to know how to build a system to fit the talent.
Xavi has a clear track record of giving youth a chance then developing them.
This fan wants a coach that fits our current reality, not some ideal.
Forza (the actual) Milan.
Xavi is no different than Tuchel, that’s why he was sacked. He talked too much. Conceição is the right man.
I really hope you never be punished as unfairly as Xavi or mistreated like he was… he went into a zoo and created miracles… he’s easily way better than what we had for the past 15 years and how people forget that my guy made Yamal and Cubarsi shine along with Fermin Lopez and Gavi.
Imagine we get 4-5 top level players this very season. Imagine in next season Camarda, Liberalli, Bartesaghi, Malaspina, Vos, Eletu, Sia, Scotill all playing as if they have been in senior team for years…
Xavi was sacked for talking about the well known financial issues of Barça, not the players.
Potter is a team builder but he really requires time. If he gets it sure but we won’t give him 3 years without a trophy.
Tuchel demands a lot from the players yes and has not been playing Pulisic and Abraham when they were in Chelsea but here Pulisic is a star and has shown something else.
At the same time he was a youth coach and has had many younger players coming through and he also had to deal with Neymar and Mbappé so he has the experience we need.
Terzic has had a lot of critisism from Dortmund players about how they played. One trick pony critisism. Hummels and other players apparantely didn’t like the way his tactics was to give the ball away and then press, win the ball and counter attack no matter what opposition.
So Dortmund let him go.
My beloved Milan is now the Chelsea of Italian football 🥲
Why not go for Porto ex coach? Alegri, Sarri are washed up. They are not what they used to be.
Out of the coaches we’re linked with it’s sarri for me.
First off we need a coach who has serie a experience and can speak Italian.
Hiring tuchel or teezic now wouldn’t change us anytime soon they have 0 experience in this league.
Don’t care what anyone says but sarri anywhere he’s been hasn’t been given players that suit his style and he’s always over achieved. How did that Lazio team finish second? Scudetto with juve europa with Chelsea. He has players in milan suited to his style.
Allegri, although I never want him because he’s a lunatic and plays the most boring football we need someone to steady the ship and he’s capable of doing that although I wouldn’t want him long term.
Absolute NO to moyes.
Any foreign coach with no serie a experience with 5 games into the season isn’t going to suddenly change us so if we are to fire fonseca it’s sarri for me. Don’t know why we hired fonseca in the first place and although he’s performed horribly, I feel like the players truly never got behind him.
You have said some interesting things but i disagreed with :”And can speak Italian”.
Milan is playing known italian first 11 and have less than 6 italian players in the whole 23-25 squad. who will the coach speak italian to?
Sarri ball is too soft defensively. That’s why he couldn’t win the scudetto not even with Juve.
he like Pirlo didn’t have their team at Juve… they had remnants of Allegri-ball players… Why do you think they performed an exorcism on their last year’s coach? 12-13 players got replaced under Motta’s command…
there was even a video circulating on youtube going into detail why Pirlo failed and how he actually performed better than most of his predecessors… we have no midfield but we want possession football… how does no one see the problem?
coach and players*
Garry bring back Carlo for us.. He has won everything in the world of football except world cup and that is bcuz he hasn’t coached a national team.
just persuade him to come and help rebuild the team for 2 season pending a long term coach suitable for the project will be available. or better go all in for KLOPP
Short time project Allegri or convince Pioli to come back and finish his contract if by any chance possible.
Pioli? He’s gone. He has signed with (and officially announced by) Al Nassr. His contract with Milan has been rescinded.
if we lose derby so new manager will come. very possible.
.
for me the best options are Sarri and Tuchel. both coaches prefer offensive, attractive and effective style of football. this is what exactly all supporters expect…
We concede too many goals. Who can fix that, no matter that he is boring etc, etc, Allegri is the one who can fix that.
Look at Inter last night against city, boring but tactically brilliant and didn’t concede against arguably the best team on the planet, that’s what we need and Allegri can give us that solidity. We are constantly being embarrassed by all sorts of teams, Allegri for all his faults will stop that, plus he always wins trophies.
So, Juve after having the longest affair with Allegri – bringing him twice, went with a young coach that could have been just a 1 season wonder?
So where is the quality? he has been constantly criticized for being one of the most unflexible coaches. he’s the Italian Mourinho if Mourinho was named “the normal one”…
Alegri ASAP.
A dream would be Zidane. (Although him not speaking much English might be a problem with the current squad).
Klopp would be amazing.
To fix the defense and the diva attitude, unfortunately Allegri might be the best choice.
To risk short term losses for better play long term, Sarri.
To risk mutiny but at least have a good coach, Tuchel for sure.
I’m not familiar with Terzic’s character so I’ll trust those who know better.
No Allegri, he lost his touch. Xavi no thank you. He likes to complain too much and blame officials.
Conceição can fix the dress room attitude and implement discipline which is needed.
If we’re going after Sarri do like Roma, until the end of the Summer. Someone mentioned Gillardino in the comments, it’ll be am interesting one, I’m impressed with his work. In a couple more seasons, he’ll be like Motta
The one who cardinale and management will choose is cheap coach. It is terzic or tudor or sarri or conceicao or moyes or ddr. Cheap is the key decision.
Rubbish. A club that spend over €200 million in 2 seasons aren’t cheap.
Conceciao or tuchel should be good options.
Not sure how English coaches play in Italy,it’s not easy. This is the reason, Italian go through in the championships than English teams.
Xavi is cry baby, so no to him.
Where is recommendations from the Moncada the great scout 😀😀😀 , he should bring a french coach recommendation?
Xavi is a legend both as a coach and as a player… what he did with Barca was nothing but a miracle-work… Barca are disgusting on how they treated him, broke club – broke mentality
As a player he is one of the best player but ,how can you say best Coach for 1la Liga title. He is always complaining about referee’s. Atleast half of matches he is crying about something. I don’t see him as best manager
Who cares about post-game interview… Ibra barks like a hellhound in interviews but we all know he’s Gerry-s little kitty cat.
What Xavi did with that disaster of a club is amazing on coaching level… people don’t get the context of where he was… he couldn’t register players, they lost their stadium, had missing 3-4 player that he found in LaMasia and made Barcelona dangerous again…
Meh I see so much comments here and laugh 😂😂😂 first of sarri is a no go area, allegri 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂 was lucky to win the league for Milan because of the player’s we had back then, same thing at Juventus at his first tenure in Juventus both second tenure was nothing because no good players at Juventus again so he’s no go area, tuchel is More better than those two I mentioned above while for the Porto ex manager can’t trust him because he hasn’t proved himself apart from Porto and for the ex Dortmund manager 😂😂😂😂 it’s like having another sedorf era God help us oooooo. like I always said americans has no business in European soccer business at all stupid set of individuals. Thinking it’s MLS or NFL teams they are managing
My preferred one is Sergio Conceição. No experience other than Porto? Well, he won 12 trophies there and has always made them punch above their weight in the Champions League. For me, that’s very relevant experience. I don’t think there is anybody who doesn’t recognize that Conceição is a competent coach.
Sarri
Sure ….. get rid IMMEDIATELY AND BEFORE DERBY MATCH of fonseca. But also dump away straightaway that bloated ego ibra and that unshaven dirty furlani and get back maldini to sort out this fukcing shambles.
Tuchel was the manager that ruined Chelsea and dumped on both Pulisic and Abraham. He blames players. No thank you.
1. Klopp
2. Zidane
3. Sarri
4. Conceição
Terzic? That guy was lucky to even be the coach at Dortmund and he managed to get their best player Hummels out of the club. He is even worse than Fonseca. Ibrahimovic is an id**t, literally.
Low budget,I recommend Gennaro Gattuso and in a situation of high profile,I recommend Jurgen Kloop.
Tuchel has bad history with pulisic
I think Xavi if not Thomas, if not Allegri . This will bore down to their salary. This coaches will get u close to chiampion leagues and also challenge for the seria a table.This are coaches that doesn’t give less
