I was just about to post this.

The nicest way of describing him is he is passionate. In less nice terms, he is a nutcase but a good nutcase. He is ultra passionate on the touchline and very opinionated so gets into trouble from time to time. His Torino team could be best described as a Jürgen Klopp team on Acid. His Torino team was ultra attacking with a high defensive line and high press and they took lots of risks. That left them loose defensively but the matches were very entertaining. Think of the old mentality of “you score 3, we score 4”. His Torino team played in a 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1 whilst he used a 4-4-2 at Milan and 4-3-1-2 at Sampdoria. His Milan and Sampdoria teams were less risky than his Torino team but still played attractive football.

A sour point for him as a Coach came last season in the Turin Derby, a Torino player was sent off and he stormed onto the pitch and got right in the refs face screaming at him. He was sent to the stands.

Overall I’d be happy with him especially for the way his teams play. His temperament at times does raise questions though. To be honest I doubt it will happen anyway.

.....I like the sound of him!
Controversial very often goes with 'passionate' -and in MHO Italian coaches seem to do this pretty well.
Actually by the bucket load.
If his teams play exciting stuff then count me in!
