Having any top 10 player work for him full time would be potentially very useful.
But just like when Kasparov tried to help him, the collaboration isn't a guaranteed success.
If Vishy were to retire and become Magnus' coach...

When did Kasparov try to help him? As I understand it, he coached Carlsen for a while when he was a kid, and apparently it worked out pretty well.
Any other thoughts?
Vishy get hired as Carlsen's trainer??
Are you joking?

He coached Carlsen when Carlsen was already an adult, and already rated #1 in the world IIRC (but not world champ yet). It lasted less than a year. A few months. Yeah it was useful while it lasted.

So... you're saying it wouldn't work?
he would make my dead burger-eating husband a better player.
Would he make Magnus a better player? Thoughts?
