Carlo Ancelotti

[Alik]

Poor guy, hired at Chelsea, FA Cup and the League in the first season, nothing the next, sacked. Successful first season at Madrid, not as good second, sacked.

Di Matteo also won the CL and FA in one (half) season, and got sacked one (half) season later.

Perez and Abramovich would get along quite well.

It just seems like some kind of marketing strategy from RM, to keep changing high profile coaches and players - for the sake of it, for change and the attention it gets. They've even fired coaches that won them Liga the very same season

FWIW I think he was sacked at the right time. Everyone agrees that they played great, at times unstoppable, football and he had that 2-3 months unbeaten run, not to mention the cup double last year. He got out before the Ronnie-Bale saga explodes, before the core started to age and before Perez forces him to change his system to accommodate another Galactico.

He gets out of this circus with his reputation intact and will probably get a ton of offers once, whenever it might be, he decides to resume his managing career.

incoming...

"We should aspire to play more like Atletico"

0 of the last 5 Champions League winning managers have remained at their club for more than a season after.

Lucho...

We haven't won CL yet. First we have to enjoy the CL if we win and then i will cry with you.

I'm calling Ancelotti to Bayern Munich in 2016. Put this in the "I told you so" thread.

I agree. Munchen needs a solid cup manager atm. Ancelotti will surely go there after next season..

Benitez has won:

2 La Ligas (with Valencia)

1 Champions League (with Liverpool)

2 Europa Leagues/UEFA Cups

1 FA Cup

1 Coppa Italia

Also, two promotions to the Primera with Extremadura (!) and Tenerife.

Also, another time finalist with Liverpool in the Champions League.

What a Muppet!!
My crap day at work has now all been forgot about.

Benitez to win them the treble Imagine the meltdown in this forum!

Or any other for that matter. People on the internet have managed to convince themselves about several extremely debatable issues (or even downright lies in many cases) One of these "common wisdoms" on the internet is that Benitez is a horrible manager, which is as bizarre as the ludicrous hype around Jose.

 

[dakt]

They really sacked him, huh...

 

[Eetu]

Giving a season after CL win, Florentino has mellowed down.

 

[monamou]

Uncle perez just couldn't stand that we're going for the treble and they went trophyless so he sacked ancelotti to release the tension in his head.

Answering "I don't know" to a simple "What did ancelotti lack" question only further proves it.

 

[draconifire]

The sole reason for RM demise is always the same guy. #AgentPerez.

Edit : Hey where's the Perez Smile, we sure owe him one.
