Stranger things have happened my friend.
Next Real Madrid manager | Glaston has a shocker
- Thread starter Samid
- Start date
Simeone
One of those rare teams that can be on autopilot. Should give it to Raul or some other legendary player which has the badges and which won't be too demanding while still having the respect.
Buy Eriksen or Thiago, add a striker and they are good to go.

Would he be willing to offer more in transfer finds than City are offering (funds which the club does not have), a willingness to give him a large degree of control within the club (more than Zidane), backing Pep removing players he might have issues with (even if it was the likes or Ramos and CR7) and most of all, the club openly supporting Catalan Independence (or at least tolerating him supporting it)?
Because if he does not offer all those concessions, don't expect Pep to be appointed any time soon.
How do either of those things explain why anyone would take a bet with you at evens when they could get superior odds from an actual bookie?
Wouldn't worry about it too much, you will still keep your squad intact should Poch decide to move on and that's the most important thing if you ask me. You could argue losing Poch would only serve to strengthen Levy's resolve when it comes to keeping his squad together.
There is also no guarantee Real would be willing to pay £30 odd million for a relatively unproven coach. As talented as Poch is, the guy is yet to win a trophy of any kind, appointing him as manager of Europes biggest football club would be considerable risk any way you slice it.

They don't - but then I've not claimed that they do.
Image if Wenger went there and won the Champions League in his first year with them 
.
Apart from joke, i would be so curious to see him there, with more financial power at his disposal.

Why were you questioning people’s confidence because they wouldn’t take your shit bet then?
I wish they got him! It would weaken Spurs so much.
Luis Enrique played for Real for a number of years before moving to Barca. If i recall correctly he was out of contract and went on a free.
No idea if he would go back to Real or whether they'd accept him back but it would be phenomenal for one person to not only play for but manage both Barca and Real!
Real Madrid are going for a 4th CL and a certain manager who loves fourth is available. Match made in heaven, Wenger to Madrid.
Really though I think he'd do really well there.

The latest odds from Paddy Power for anyone who may be interested.
Mauricio Pochettino - 7/4
Arsene Wenger - 5/2
Guti - 11/2
Antonio Conte - 7/1
Massimiliano Allegri - 12/1
Diego Simeone - 22/1
Jurgen Klopp - 25/1
Leonardo Jardim - 25/1
33/1 bar
Saint Klopp at 25/1 looks tasty. Gotta be worth a fiver of anyone's money!
I'd guess Sarri. Poch has just signed a new long term contract and Levy will refuse to let him go.
If the manager wants to go Levy can do nothing about it tbh. Or anyone for that matter.
How will the players respond if they openly know the man leading them wants out? It's purposefully sabotaging your own season.
Poch is difficult now. Reckon it will be Allegri in the end. Conte is likely to be available but I am not sure Real will accept his Mourinhoesque style of play.
Would be totally like them to have him for a season, win the title then sack him for the shit football. See Capello X2
True but I doubt Pochettino is keen on going otherwise he wouldn't have agreed to such a long contract. Sarri will be easier to get as Chelsea are in crisis. Only question mark is his lack of trophies in management.
This is one which Levy can’t win. Imagine keeping your manager who doesn’t want to be there.
Why don't you ask such posters how many have placed a bet at the bookies on Poch leaving?
Why won’t you just answer a simple question?
Does anyone know the rules behind this, surely Real would have to approach Levy first, or is it different for coaching staff and players? Poch doesn't have an agent.
Lucky Madrid to be after a manager when Big Sam is available. Go get em Sam.
Apparently Poch has a press conference with Balague tomorrow for the release of their new book in Barcelona, should be interesting as both guys are close friends Andy Balague has already said he expects Poch to be with us next season.
Don't be tiresome. And stop trying to derail the thread by turning it some weird debate about my offered bet.
I'm confident that Poch will stay and I question the confidence of those who claim he'll leave.
We'll soon know who is right - let's leave it at that.
If Madrid want poch and poch wants to go, he's gone. Don't matter bout his contract. You don't think madrid will payout any outstanding fees or penalties for early contract termination, if it gets their man?
It's also one thing keeping a want away player, but a want away manager? No chance.

Tapping up is probably so common, and impossible to police, that it’s not even worth mentioning

Poch would be stupid to take it , he has a good safe thing going
I don't think anyone is disputing that ... but it's the same for any manager at any club.
You dont turn Real Madrid down.
It wont go well with some cafe members cause it will mean we're not getting Poch soon. Although he could last short there.

You're shitting yourself ain't ya
Not in the least. If you want to go to RM this summer, and you know that Zidane might well be sacked if he loses the CL final against Liverpool, then you don't sign a new, 5 year contract before the outcome of that game is known.You're shitting yourself ain't ya
You do for insurance. He didn't know whether zidane would be sacked or not. Case in point, zidane wasn't even sacked, he's left on his own accord. You can't plan for that so you insure yourself.
Wouldn't use his contract signing as a symbol of his loyalty, not at all.
Real Madrid will get their man. If they want Pochettino he's theirs.
I hope he stays at Spurs to be honest. He'd be a disaster in Madrid.

Harry Kane to leave next season if Poch goes.
Insurance for what? He could have waited a few days - until after the CL final - before deciding whether or not to sign a new contract and it would have made no difference to the Spurs contract still being available. And signing the new contract would only make it more difficult and expensive for RM, so why would he sign if he wanted the RM job?
It's pretty obvious that he never had any intention of going to RM this summer, regardless of the job being available or not.
Pretty damn good if you go by how long Wenger overstayed.
