Currently we're not winning trophies and not playing pretty football at that so why not try out Paco. He probably wouldn't win us a treble but we'd play classy footy and not this boredom we're being fed with now.
However, I still have faith left for Lucho. I'm curious to see how he fares with Atleti and Sociedad coming up.
Paco has not proven his worth at any top club and his Rayo team is extremely naive tactically wise. Not really the sort of "experiment" that we need to take in case the club fires Lucho which would only happen due to lack of success on the field.
What we need is something that RM realized back in 2010 when they hired Mourinho. It was not pretty but it was necessary back then for them to return to the top. Now Ancelotti is benefitting from that. Of course he himself had a huge responsibility for their success but the fundament was built under Mourinho.
No, I am not advocating for Mourinho I am just saying that if we are to replace Lucho we need a proven winner and a top manager. Someone that can be trusted at the highest level, who knows the pressures of a top club, who got the experience and who is not easily intimidated by the media.
Paco would just be another experiment. We don't need that. As much as I respect and admire the guy and his Rayo team. At Rayo nobody expects anything from him other than staying in the league. He can afford to take risks and to play fancy football.
Oh, RM will win unless Lucho and our team get their shit together. Our main rival is in a crazy form of late (22 consecutive wins!) and playing some amazing football at the same time. Unfortunately.
