Twitter explodes as AC Milan hire Gennaro Gattuso

AC Milan v Cagliari Calcio - Serie A — AC Milan have fired Vicenzo Montella and hired Gattuso

Jeez. Remember this madman who headbutted Joe Jordan - who was, at that time, a member of the coaching staff at Tottenham Hotspur - when Milan took on the North London side at the Champions League.

Actually, that was just one of the many incidents where the former World Cup-winning Italian lost his cool. And now, Gennaro Gattuso is going to be on the sidelines during Serie A games as Milan have hired their former player as the manager to replace the sacked Montella.

A lot of good things were being expected from the San Siro outfit after a summer of overhauling. However, coach Vicenzo Montella couldn't find the right system to blend his players and has, as a result, had to pay for it.

Meanwhile, Milan fans seem quite upbeat with this move, but there are some who are not so sure. Presenting to you, the Twitter reactions...

We can imagine a lot of yelling

Imagine Gattuso trying to teach tactics to a team.

That's not really a great resume

Gattuso’s career as coach:
Sacked by Sion
Sacked by Palermo
Sacked by OFI Creta
Left Pisa after relegation https://t.co/c6o06OrIYR

This could be interesting

AC Milan just sacked their manager and replaced him with Gattuso. Can see him walking in day 1 and beating Borini to a pulp just to send a message

That makes the two of us

% chance of Gattuso as Milan coach working out? Feel like I’ve seen this one before and it doesn’t end well at all.

Interesting

Gattuso’s coaching career can be summarized as wild and volcanic. Between being fired, goofy promotions from Lega Pro, fighting internally with everyone, this new adventure is unlike anything he’s had

It’s all fun and games until Gattuso finds tweets calling him a fraud, tracks down the IP and unleashes a series of kicks to the head

Someone is happy

Montella has been fired. And Gattuso has been appointed as the new coach. I love Gattuso, but not sure this is a good idea. In any case, good luck Rino!
— MilanGirls (@Milangirls) November 27, 2017

I fully back Gattuso as the new sheriff in town, but honestly, I’ve got little to no expectations. Regardless of how he does, I won’t let it effect my love, appreciation and admiration for him and all that he did as a player for Milan.

Let’s do this, Rinoooooo! ????

Well, let's hope that Gattuso can finally find his feet in management at Milan now!
