Lopetegui 
From being a meme in Portugal to managing Spain and Real Madrid in a couple of years... unbelievable

So this is the best person they could select to be sacked at the end of the season? No one more sackable?
A very unexpected choice.
Surprise bag. Certainely high risk.
Never heard of, i think, but anyone can win something with that squad.
What was the meme?Lopetegui

In all seriousness, gonna have to google who this is...
EDIT: Haha, didn't even know this is the Spain manager. Feck me.

He won't survive even a full season. Will be sacked by December.
Poor sod.....it's like choosing a sacrificial lamb
Must be paying him very well to walk away from the national team and become their patsy.
He was a massive failure at Porto...
The spanish David Moyes?
He has to deal with aging stars and sky high egos. I suppose Ramos will back him in the dressing room.
An overhaul is required and he won't even be able to focus until the world cup is over. Very much feels like he is just being brought in to keep the seat warm for the next guy.

Everything about him, he had Benfica and Sporting fans chanting for him to stay. Alienated key players like Quaresma and lost the dressing room while acting like he was a genius in the press conferences despite getting his tactics wrong very often.
He did a very good job with Spain's youth teams, did a very bad job with Porto and so far hasn't really done anything for Spain's national team... I have no idea how he's managed to get this job. Zidane completely fecked Madrid by leaving with such a short notice.
Heard he called Bale a wanker.
He is the perfect stop gap appointment
Exactly
Might not last a full season.Serves Real Madrid right after how they've treated their managers.
Really?
Was once linked to the Wolves job
Who?
There were rumors some days ago about him.
Apparently Madrid players in the national team recommended him to Florentino.
Good choice,I like him.I wonder who will be Spain next coach

He's doing well for himself!
Real would be better off if Perez took a long walk off a short pier.
Enrique?
The question is - does he rate Bale? 
Qualifying for the Euros only starts in March of 2019, Lopetegui will be free by then
I would have stayed at his current job, doesnt seem to be suited to club football
*sheepshagging wanker
I, for one, welcome our new overlord.
See I was going to put sheep shagger but I didn't know if I'd get done in for some form of racism.
Who?
Isco will get a Benzema level of protection
They tend to choose spanish coaches,but could be Zidane

Real have scraped the barrel.
Glad Im not the only one
This. Unless he pulls a del Bosque, he's going to be there a season or two while Guti/Raul/Xabi Alonso get more experience and take over the team down the line.
So Real have been speaking to the Spain manager when he should be concentrating on the World Cup. He better have a good one or he might be sacked before he even takes up his post.
I hope this guy being Spanish prefers Isco to Bale.
Are we going to see tiki-taka Madrid? Afraid I've not paid any attention to international football.
Will they sack him before the start of the season if he has a disastrous world cup?
