Don't get me wrong, I do have respect for his success. I just don't want to give him too much credit for it because it wasn't just down to his great managerial qualities.
De Boer made us play "solid" football for years. Not good or great, not bad or terrible either (though abysmal to watch). It was enough to win the league 4 years in a row wo you have to give some credit for it. But in the end we all know that had we played the same football the 5 years before de Boer came in, we wouldn't have won a single trophy.
Also you shouldn't forget that for many Ajax fans style is as important as success.
Well whatever.

Not sure about Bosz yet. I like his style or at least the style he wants us to play. Remains to be seen if he can really implement it and keep the team sharp all season. There are many promising signs so far so I'm happy for now.

It seems like once more there will be a manager trying the 4-2-3-1 in Italy lol.
I would have anyone that joins Juve sign a contract preventing him from ever playing this formation in Serie A.

Benitez' awful 4-2-3-1 in inter and napoli still have me scarred. Mancini's didn't help either.

Benitez lost the dressing room at Inter since day 1, and he had an injury crises to deal with, plus he's Benitez you know. Mancini didnt have the right players for it so it was stupid to begin with. A good example of 4231 success is mourinho in 2010, but that team was so strong that the formation didnt really matter. Guess we'll have to see

Mourinho used 442 diamond in the league mostly. We usually switched in the second half if we needed to score or if starting with 4-2-3-1 we would switch to the diamond once we get ahead.

Also the Thiago Motta - Cambiasso pivot was perfect. Aside from being slow, but the nature of Serie A and Cambiasso's intelligence negated that.

We also had Sneijder dropping deep, that trio was too good.

Don't forget Stankovic, very solid player in those days

Stankovic did not play in 4-2-3-1. He was generally used for the diamond.

irrc we completely switched to 4231 starting january 2010 after signing Pandev, i dont remember every game but i thought 4231 was just a CL tactic and i was surprised how often we used it in the league.


De Boer won his first friendly today fielding 4231, and starting in the 2nd half he subbed off Medel for Jovetic and played Banega in a deeper role.

Our real problem is the awful athletic condition , Mancini caused damages this summer, we had to change that clown before of it.
It was evident even in last friendly match against Celtic.
This is the main problem and De Boer will have to make a great job, not beginning on easy conditions.
For the rest ... I read many words about the bad De Boer gamestyle , ok, but well I hope not many ppl saw Inter under Mancini . We came from a gamestyle based on " hoofball " , so it shouldn't be difficult to get better than it , and we are used to bad matches so it's not a great problem.
We got the 4th plave simply because the team is good for Serie A level , but Mancini basically flopped under us.
His only credit was about the mercato , beucase the team improved under him , thanks for Perisic and Miranda but coaching is another thing.

Can't believe how much he was holding the best squad in Serie A back. This impostor will be in a 2nd division side like Benitez soon.
