If you are going to be coached by a former world chess champion...who could that be? and why?

@KKJ_KC2 "Former" is not the same thing as "Late". You don't have to kill him you know. The killing part is completely unnecessary.

@RetryOpening I'd definitely pick Kasparov because I'm aggressive and tricky but I want to be aggressive and positional.
@KKJ_KC2 Well, you're passing creativity class with flying colors but you're getting a fail in problem solving :P
@Itsmidnight uhh hello. look at the first post. he told us to choose departed people. looks like youre failing to use your eyes

@KKJ_KC2 Read again. It includes already departed. It doesn't say they have to be departed. I guess it looks like "youre failing to use your eyes".
Mikhail Botvinik.
He coached World Champions like Kramnik, Kasparov and Karpov.He could also teach me some electrical engineering on the side.He also dominated Soviet Chess for quite a long time.
Botvinnik's example and teaching established the modern approach to preparing for competitive chess: regular but moderate physical exercise; analysing very thoroughly a relatively narrow repertoire of openings; annotating one's own games, those of past great players and those of competitors; publishing one's annotations so that others can point out any errors; studying strong opponents to discover their strengths and weaknesses; ruthless objectivity about one's own strengths and weaknesses.

I think that he would be a great coach.
