Did Alonso at Leverkusen have the credentials/honors?

Maybe we should put the ego aside and stop thinking a glam manager is going to solve our problems.

Poch was earning the respect of the current squad and we saw results, that is the challenge for new bod coming in.

But why is everyone using the term “sacked” as if the club got rid of him ? It’s by “mutual consent”.
For a start, he won’t be getting any payout from the club which he would if it was not by mutual consent. Who in their right mind would agree with a mutual consent term if there was a contract to be paid out on ?
I hear he's been paid £6m as compensation for leaving by mutual consent. So he's been sacked.

Nope.

But spin it how you wish. I am sure your revolving door policy will pay off eventually.

Two champions leagues for starters, the last in 2021.

How's your policy working out? hehe

Viewing in from the outside, it's almost unbelievable that Chelsea would choose to remove Pochettino, so I'd guess he engineered a situation where he had to leave, as I can't see anyone available who would generally be considered to be a better person for the job.

Now he is free to go to another very big job and has a £6M bulge in his pocket too. Nice work if you can get it.

Really need City to win today, to put us into the Europa League and not the Europa Conference League.

Engineered like a Conte or Mourinho exit.

AC Milan got rid of there manager yesterday, Xavi got the chop as well, just showing the industry is rife with fk wit "directors" running these clubs.

It does open up the market though a bit to some exciting new managers to come through and disrupt football.

Not sure for the next season or so we need that though.

I wonder where Bielsa is at the moment he hasn't been mentioned in any jobs recently.

Honestly, would it have been deserved if we had got it?

If your success relies on others, its always conditional…

Totally agree.

Manure will just bomb out early on in the europa as they will be out there depth.

It's a bit of farce they get the europa as well for winning a cup.

Not sure scraping 6th in the league screams deserving of Europa League. At least Man U won something.
