Guillem Balague said before the match today that if they lost he would be gone for next season. I assume a league or CL win would change that, but who knows.

 

Come back home, Carlo.

 

Whats the point of writing the poll questions in the thread as well?

 

As things stand now, he'll get sacked unless he doesn't pass to the semifinals of the Champions League. A heavy loss yesterday would've most likely been the end of him but the team actually played really well for a good 50-55 minutes before they ran out of gas. Florentino Pérez doesn't really comply with all the decisions he's taken when Madrid have been in a "crisis" so far but if anyone can get out of a crisis, then it's Ancelotti. The most important thing for him is that he's got the players on board because they're the real difference makers in the end.

 

Come back to Milanello Carletto:hopeful:roud:.

 

ya right :howler:

 

Yes and only if the 2 followings happen
1- Real will lose to Aletico in QF
2- Real lost la liga in next 5games

 

Hmmm... Real Madrid with Florentino, won a CL recently, starting to buy all types of players for heavily inflated prices and the coach is being on the sack watch... Deja vu

 

yep yep ... and we'll see more and more in years to come as long as Perez still there

 

In normal circumstances this should not even be discussion, him getting sacked. But this is Real Madrid, circus.

 

mmm - Ancelloti started very well last year or first half season ... BUT

Real did fall to a new low in results and the 3 front men hardly score goals since early 2015 ... that's the reason ... (even though we are not sure if he is to be blamed = Real's issue like you said

Look: Messi scored more than the 3 FW at Real combined since Jan 2015 :howler:

 

He has LA DECIMA.... who cares if he will be sacked or not. He is in the history books forever with Real Madrid.

 

You guys think he is on his way to City now?

 

Overrated manager, would be a crime if he wins another CL.

 

I don't really see how sacking him helps them in any way, he's created a great system at Real.

 

Overrated manager? Lol, what a farce!! He's won the CL 3 times with 2 different clubs and he has 4 league titles with 4 different clubs in 4 different leagues. That should tell you something.

 

His first CL he won it in the worst CL final match in history, and was lucky that Nedved had been suspended. He won last year's CL thanks to Courtois error in defending the corner kick in the last minute, with a super team against a modest Atletico. Not a bad football coach but not even close to great. Also failed at Chelsea.

 

Does being a "crap league coach" make you an overrated coach? No it does not. Only someone who is completely clueless could make such a ridiculous comment about Ancelotti being supposedly overrated.

 

He is overrated because he is not as good as some say.

 

It doesnt make him overrated. But look at the number of 1 league title coaching Juventus/Milan/R.Madrid over 10 years.
He is in discusison for greatest coach in CL history.
But I am pointing on league level, he has massive underachievements.

 

He is not one of the greatest CL coaches in history, he just takes the biggest teams and loads them with star players even more. Rikjaard was more impressive leading Barcelona to their CL title in 06.

 

So winning the Champions League 3 times is not "as good as some say"???

 

None of his teams will ever be remembered as greats in history, like AC Milan of Sacchi, Ajax of Van Gaal, Real Madrid of Del Bosque, or Barcelona of Guardiola.

 

The level of ignorance here is just :wallbang: :shakepalm:

Also, winning the CL is worth more than winning any league title.

 

I want him to coach Italy in the world cup. There is that chance now if Conte leaves after 2016.

 

I would love that, Italy needs to have a proper coach once again.

 

Rafa Benitez to Real Madrid? I doubt they go for Klopp

 

I hope Real do sack him and he does coach Italy. Would be great!!!

Reading comments about Zidane coaching Real...i guess all great players become great coaches yeah??? Maradona for example......lol.

 

Well its one of those ego things for Perez again, if Barca can do it, so can we (Real) by appointing ex player.

Far too early imo. Zidane should go and coach in france for a season or two first. Just because he was coached during career by some of the best managers in the world doesnt mean he will be success.

And if it does go wrong, will be very ugly end. Zidane has big connections with Real and Perez wants him to stick around. But if they fail, then what? Madrid own fans might lash at him. Not the place to earn your coaching badges.

 

 

I bet he coaches Milan next season until it's time to take over for Italia after 2018

 

Dude once gets sacked by Real he will still have offers from top clubs. I think Manchester City are looking into him now.
Dont think he is going to drop like Roberto Mancini.

Fitting article.

 

If Real Madrid have the players I think Zidane can do the job. Next season is earlier than expected but does not necessarily make it bad.

He has the respect of the dressing room as most of the players will look up to him. Especially Iker, Varane, Ramos while Benzema is someone who may go to a better level with Zidane.

If I look around world football managers, I don't see anyone who would be the right fit. Klopp would be a big disaster as he is used to total control His style would of fit pre James/Kroos.

Rafa can be a good transitional option but for what? For Zidane to have another year at Castilla in SegundaB? Nope just give him the job already.
