Sacked twice in half a season?

by The Demon of Carthage Sat Oct 06, 2018 7:29 pm

The poor thing. Had a great job with Spain but ditched to sign for Madrid. He had no idea he was walking into a minefield with no attack.

He'll be the scapegoat and I can't see him surviving the sack in midseason if these results keep piling up.

It would be easy to sack this no-name guy, but at least United can dream of getting Zidane, who would Madrid bring in?

I hate Conte. and he act's like a clown.

The same Conte that had legit issues with not, and I'm assuming here, acquiring certain players he wanted from both Jjuve and Chelsea would come to this version of Madrid that isn't really buying anyone under the age of 21? I mean, it's a job and he needs to be gainfully employed but...

Hierro to step in and play Ramos as midfielder, striker, center back, goalkeeper, full back and ball boy

Whoever gave Numptegui his name couldn't have chosen a more apt name for him.

Wenger to finally make his big jump Proud

If we sack Lope mid season we'll get someone from within as interim. Raul is Probably the biggest bet

I still like JLO his football at the start of the season wasn't bad it was great at times, but it's fairly obvious that he has lost the players, they are clearly in glory hunting mode, asensio and carvajal taking shots from corner of the box that never gonna score, bale, modric, Kronos and casemiro just launching balls into the stands over and over,there is no clarity in the attack, everyone is trying to run with the ball or doing useless flicks, players needs to get their head out of theirs asses they never ever replace CR goal scoring or be a big star like him, just do their jobs and stop crowding the box just to shoot some shit shoot that hardly ever gonna score, as I said before Jlo doesn't have enough clout to get the players back on track and he needs to drop that Spanish bias as his asensio isn't good enough to start, let alone playing 90 mons been shit all season it needs to be said.

Spanish journalist claiming that Madrid are thinking of changing coach, and they will decide tomorrow... lol

it would be a foolish move if true. and for a club that has been reluctant to spend, not financially sensible either

Ronaldo may have contributed more to the team's play than was previously thought.

by halamadrid2 Mon Oct 08, 2018 5:32 am

This team was already struggling to score with Ronaldo nvm without him. This time last season Ronaldo had one goal and we created infinitely more chances than we have done so far this season. Possession footballing sucks

by Nivash Mon Oct 08, 2018 10:40 pm

There's also the sense that Asensio is trying too hard to step up, and in the process showing that he's trying too hard and things not coming off. Maybe to a lesser extent those Kroos/Casemiro shots that don't go anywhere is that there's pressure for someone to replace the 40 goals Cristina took with him. I'd personally prefer a team approach to replacing them, but until the gears click into place, we're going to see more and more scrambling around.

There's probably also a case for a bunch of players thinking someone else is going to step up into the void, which itself is a problem
