Looks like his time at Saudi is coming to a premature end, I would much rather take a punt on him than the likes of Southgate. His style of play is beautiful on the eye.

Marcelo Gallardo as next manager?

Certainly an interesting option. Reassuring in the sense that he'd not be some pragmatic short-term manager who is supposed to get a top 4 finish from the mishmash squad we have.
This summer will be such an opportunity to focus on the long-term if there's no European football.

Had a quick read on his style with this piece
He seems to have a good degree of flexibility while maintaining his principles.

Remember reading about him a few years back and thinking he could be a good option to succeed Mourinho.
Was very highly rated before his Saudi move. Would actually be a very decent left field option. I think he will probably end up in Spain though.
I remember he was class on one of the early champ versions as an AM (RLC), either footed
that's all I have to contribute until I watch some youtubes and become an expert on everything

I can't remember him as a player at all despite him being a very good one by all accounts.
The only other Gallardo I've ever heard of is produced by Lamborghini. I say sign him up even if just for the cool last name.
I never understood his move to Arabia (bar the obvious bucks) but I do not know how much this will end hurting his carreer.
I'm not that sure that such a huge and problematic dressing room like United will welcome him, would have been better if first he did some experience anywhere in Europe in a lesser club or in huge club like Benfica or Porto, but outside the 3 more regarded Leagues like Serie A, LA Liga and EPL.
Regarding his ability as a coach, he was great for River, he is offensive oriented and he managed in great form the constant exodus of players.

He was a very good player, a skilled 10 that deserved to the very least more minutes under Passarella in the WC98, he was in great form in those days and el Kaiser just used him against Croatia if I recall well.
why?
-4 goal difference too huh. But he has Fabinho and Kante?
How old are you? Damn. Marcelo Gallardo was a must buy from River Plate in the old CMs.
In my FM21 save, he took over from Ole and won the league a few times. Sign him up.
Old enough to remember him, except I dont. Never played CM.
I vaguely recall his short time at DC United.
I don't think there is even one vid from him with great quality
He was great in River, he won everything. And he was player of the year in Ligue One in Monaco. In the NT he didn't play that much in comparison with other 10s, fun player to watch nonetheless.

Never heard of him.
There's several reasons we should exclude all managers that's been to Saudi.
that's what I remember him from too!Doesn’t need a seperate thread unless it’s a serious link
this could be in the ‘who replaces ten Hag?’ thread
