#3 Can handle big egos
Carlo Ancelotti at Manchester United would be the perfect linkup in many ways. One of the biggest factors would be the Italian's experience in handling the big egos present with the Premier League giants.
With almost all managers since Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement in 2013, players have not been the most supportive. It is a task to manage the egos at any of the top clubs and Ancelotti is no newbie to it.
Having seen and handled it all with some of the top European clubs, the Italian manager will be able to do the same at United. With that sorted, there should be more cohesion and sync between the players on the pitch.
#2 Managed top teams
Having managed the top teams in England, Italy, Spain and France, Carlo Ancelotti has done well almost everywhere. With big teams comes the pressure to perform consistently and satisfy a number of things.
The former AC Milan manager has managed to successfully meet and even at times exceed expectations. Irrespective of the toughness of the league, the Italian has managed to have a productive spell. The same can be expected if he manages to get the Manchester United job.
The Red Devils have long waited for silverware and it has not been easy to be a United fan in the past few years. Ancelotti has won the league title in four of the top five European leagues. There is no doubt that the Italian is very capable of taking Manchester United back to where they belong.
#1 Serial winner
Eventually it is the silverware that defines the success of a managerial career. It is what made Sir Alex Ferguson's time at Manchester United much more memorable.
Carlo Ancelotti has won a number of trophies in his stellar managerial career so far. He has won the league in Italy, Germany, France and England. He has also won the Champions League thrice, once with Real Madrid and twice with AC Milan.
With such experience and capabilities to win trophies, the Italian has always been a safe bet when it comes to winning silverware. Ancelotti will surely play a huge part in bringing back trophies to Manchester United should he be named their manager next season.
