Interesting article!

Ancelotti has never really been credited as being a master tactician, and is seen more as a man-manager, able to rouse his players into achieving greatness. Though, as the clips here suggest, and his famous Christmas Tree formation attest to, is Carlo in fact a leading tactical mind??

On another note, following Luis Enrique's PSG being knocked out by a pretty uninspiring Dortmund team, does the Galician - who said he embodied Barcelona more than Xavi - demonstrate the limit of positionism if it fails to evolve?
