We will see. But even if it happens, it is mainly because he was a generational defender, and didn't stick to LB his entire career.

All time LB is a weird sentence. Very few people remember a LB before the 90's. And in a decade or so, newer generations won't be that familiar with Maldini and Carlos even. Fullbacks is generally one of the least recognised position in football

I am not sure UEFA has the authority to do either. They have almost no power on leagues.

Benfica did it too iirc. Honestly with the insane schedule of the new CL format I can see more teams wanting it. This April schedule is brutal.

They aren't known for their patience, aren't they? That said, 14 Liga points in 13 games since return from Christmas break, lost 4 in CDR against Segunda Almeria, 4 consecutive loses were the last straw for their board. A bit like last year, he was great in first half and bad second one...

Fired

Was it going to make a difference? They could have just fielded a youth team.

Martin is so far seems fine for La Liga and BVB. If Balde is back in 3 weeks, our La Liga games will be against Celta & Mallorca at home, and Valladolid away he should either play or be his last missed game. Main problems will be against RM in CDR, and Bayern if they reach Semi Finals. We...

Serviceable

Congratulations coach. Fair to say he was a good hiring.
