Apart from his qualities when at the bench, Carlo maintains a good relationship with the vast majority of players he has coached. It is possible thanks to his huge capacity to manage human beings. Ancelotti knows and understands players. Ancelotti’s words to Gattuso remind us that football gives you much more than titles and experiences, it also gives unconditional and never-ending friendships.
