Obviously not pretending to know but, if you were coach and/or trainer of Carlsen, how would you advice him to prepare for the upcoming world championship match? And same question goes if you were on Caruana's side. For example, I heard caruana's has excellent opening knowledge and is hard worker. He knows you and your games (the structure you Excell and the one you struggle). I also know that carlsen has a notorious psychological weakness (tilt) so you could start looking on how to approach the games order.

That would be, Amazing! Creative. He maybe should try also to gain 8kg muscles for some itemidation and better stamina (also with Kasparov :))

Don´t know... Who are good friends (or at leat get well along) for them?

I know Carlsen and Aronian get well along. Or Yifan Hou...But i´d see someone with more experience (for both of them) as Susan Polgar helped Karjakin. I can see Kasparov helping out one of them. Maybe even more Carlsen? No idea,
Well, it's not going to be Giri who helps out Carlsen that's for sure

I think Magnus will go with someone with a better score over Caruana or someone who plays against him very often. When playing Anand he chose Mickey Adams not top ten but he knew Anand better than most excluding Kasparov. As far as Caruana’s choice of second I’m curious. Maybe MVL for his skills of using computers.
