I think he's finally doing a bit better now in USA? It took him multiple failed coaching jobs but he's finally let go of wanting to play total football with any team.

And yeah most of his criticism toward us was harsh truth, he wanted to get the players needed to play total football here but did not get either those players or the time and he is still salty about that. Even though it wouldn't have worked in Serie A anyway. But as Universe pointed out his criticism was never really false. He's been stubborn because he wants football to look nice and entertaining. I'd say there's worse reasons to be :lol:

if he was positive, he would have blamed Inter for it.

Sacked again!

One of the few coaches we fired who actually deserved it fully.

And yet he's the last Inter coach to beat Juve.

Don't have one.

No wonder, he has this horrible mixture of arrogance and incompetence as coach. Should start looking into new profession.

The coaching level at international football is pretty low so i wouldn't be surprised if he was successful.

The level is low, but is it really De Boer-low?

He obviously didn't get appointed on merit. Got the job probably because he was a famous player and knows some folks at the top.

I think he’s yet another “Inter victim”.

Dude honestly had a promising, if not good, coaching career prior to Inter. Sure, winning the Eredivisie with Ajax isn’t the most illustrious achievement but winning it 4 times consecutively is still both respectable and a record.

I suspect that after he got fired from Inter (which was way too rushed tbh) he lost his fucking marbles. Since then, he’s gone from trash club to trash club, maniacally trying to impose all kinds of lofty, Ajax-like total football onto players barely worthy of being professional athletes. Coupled with his insane personality that is a recipe for disaster. I honestly think a move back to the Netherlands is the best move for him.

Another poor soul whose fragile mind was left unable to recover after a short period at the club.. (see: Dalbert and Joao Mario)
