What's weird about it?

What do you mean? Think it mostly depends to which tier the team locals in question suport belongs. If we're talking about local cules or madridistas, I believe they're all about winning and dominating. Just like the rest of the fanbase. Speaking from experience, Dinamo Zagreb fans take winning...

Neymar decided to renew should finally end the narrative that he wants to return and play for Barca again.

:lol: ditto

No, didn't even see what you wrote. He certainly improved his approach both from the last game and the 2nd game with Barca. Pretty even tie which went Psg's way.

See some potray this tie as Poch's 'masterclass'. :lol: People like to blow things out of proportions.

The goat and the woat

Looked up that old poll Mbappe vs. Dembele for Barca. Dembele won 43 to 28. Shame it wasn't public :lol:

Aye. It was obvious who the better player was from the start.

A 3 year extension with a paycut seems fine. Might see more of him at RB than we hope to.

Pedri looks like a junkie

Yup. Man's working overtime to cover his losses. Hard month for him.

Well it's always a matter or smart choices. Don't take on what you think will won't work. But you're claiming Primera teams wouldn't be able to grasp the concepts, while in Q league they did. Quite a stretch there, lol Think he's due for the job even if he fails at another job. But suggesting...

The club wants to renew him and give him a raise. He'll apparently also get half of Riqui's salary.

Valverde's on the list. Serghei's not wrong :coffee:

I'm not saying he won't make it, but experience rarely harms your case. Especially in Xavi's case since he'll get the job sooner or later. Little things you learn along the way can help and save you in important moments, no matter how talented you are. I'd rather he tested his ideas somewhere...

Good post. If you go club by club, it does look grim. But there are always changes in coaching positions at various clubs hard to predict now. For instance, Celta fired Garcia in November and Coudet does well enough with them, but wouldn't be surprised they moved on in the summer. Think the...

Plenty to being a manager that doesn't meet the eye. More than the stereotypical attributes of elite managers. Firstly, he'd work with the big locker room, star players he'll work with in the future. Completely different from what he's got in the Q-league. Secondly, football's evolving and...

Of course it matters. If he wasn't the brain of Pep's Barca, we'd never consider a manager with zero experience outside of the Q-league as our next head coach. That said, being an assistant would add to his managerial experience and boost his case. A supplement to his experience as a player.

How was Zidane the same? Zidane started as an advisor under Mourinho, promoted into a sporting director from 2011 to 2013, and was later Ancelotti's assistant coach. In between the jobs, spent a year and a half coaching Castilla during Benitez' term. Zidane worked closely with the worlds' best...
