99% sure it'll be Benitez, according to my great sources. The Klopp thing were just cheap tabloid rumors.
He would have been an idiot to join Schalke...what a train wreck. They need to fire or sell everyone but Höwedes and start over. Even Draxler and Meyer are totally overrated.
True, they are like a homeless man's version of Man City. Grab a bunch of money and sign a wild mix of big names without thinking about chemistry or how they mesh together. Same with HSV. These two teams need a new front office and get their **** together.
Oh ****. We're still in Europa? Pointless competition considering we're going to win the PL title anyway.
These aren't leagues, only tournaments. Leagues are English Premiere, Spanish Premiere, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1
La Liga, Premier League, Ligue 1, Bundesliga, Serie A are the five major leagues. I would say La Liga is the best league followed by Prem and Bundesliga.
Rafa Benitez looks like the next Real Madrid manager. No me gusta. Makes no sense. Madrid is full of peacocks that need to fly. Benitez is going to clip their wings. All those peacocks are going to hate him. I would give him two years if Ancelotti didn't go two years, now I figure 18 months and no major titles. Oooooorrrrrr... These peacocks need his organization and pragmatism and their talent will bring in his missing magic and creativity. Doubt it.
Carlo was the perfect guy for that job. I guess in this world you cannot stay perfect for a for good.
No, in the football world, one can't expect to stay at Madrid for more than one season as long as Perez is in control. (To be fair, as long as ANYONE is in control there). Last Madrid manager to be there for more than two years other than Mourinho? Del Bosque (99-03). Before Del Bosque it was Beenhakker in the late 80's. No manager from 89-99 and 03-2010 was at Madrid for more than two seasons. That club is the club in the world that least deserves a good manager.
Update: Subotic extended his contract with Dortmund today, now lasts til 2018. Think reaching the EL and having Tuchel as their new coach will prevent a mass exodus, key players are likely to stay.
SO LVG has come out saying that he is looking for a deep lying midfielder in the Carrick mold? Who is he targeting? Strootman? Khedira? Schweini?
