If Inzaghi fail do you think the board and ppl associated with the club will throw him under the bus like they did with Seedorf?
No I don't think so. I think he will be obedient to the club, something Seedorf wasn't. Unless Milan starts the season winning every game the media will have fun with him though.

From when I started this profession and two years ago sadly hung up my boots, my greatest desire was to become Coach of Milan, the club of my life, he declared.
People have forgotten who Milan is, what it represents and the fact this is the most successful club in the world.
Anyone who begins the profession of a Coach dreams of being on the bench of either Milan or Real Madrid, but for me it has always been Milan. Ill give all of myself and hope to be up to the task.
I think the most important thing is to recreate the DNA of Milan. That means respect, the group ethic, the desire to come to Milanello with a smile because the work we do is fantastic.
When I won, I was always part of a group of real men. A Coach who expects rules to be followed must be the first to set the example for the players.
Ill try to be myself, not copy anyone. I hope my ambition, my desire to bring Milan back where it belongs is understood.
When I accepted Milan, I thought of the team and the people I have at my disposal. I believe in this team, that it can return to being what it was.
I will work on respect of rules and nutrition. As we are paid well and can do the greatest job in the world, this is absolutely an iron rule for me.
This team needs anger and I trust it has it after finishing eighth in Serie A last season. There is the desire to prove themselves.
Honour the shirt was always my motto and it must be our first thought too.
I am very self-critical, so I always put myself up for the challenge and want to improve. My experiences with the Allievi and Primavera youth teams fortified me.
I look to the Coaches I worked with, and there have been many. Ancelotti is the emblem, as he is loved and respected by his players. That is my intention, even if I am Filippo Inzaghi and not Ancelotti.
I will always forgive a technical error, but will never forgive the wrong attitude. A Milan player cannot get it wrong off the field.
I didnt call Diego Simeone, but I watched Atletico and its organisation. I will try to bring my own methods. I like 4-3-3 or 4-4-2.
Milan finished in eighth place, so obviously we need to change something in this team. I am relaxed, as I know the ambitions of the owners. They want to get back to winning ways.
I told the lads I want an attacking and positive Milan, hopefully with entertaining football too. We must try to take control of the game.
