Motta has agreed with Juve.
Flick might not be interested anymore since he was mistreated by Laporta when waiting for a call for months.

IN GENERAL: the universe does not revolve around this idiot's whims. Serious professionals talk months before the season is over to determine their next destination
we will only be left with another unacceptable bet/puppet in Marquez

I'm sure Flick would go down on his knees for this job. It's not like any other club wants him. Even Bayern his former club are avoiding him like he's the plague.

His reputation is in the gutter. I suspect the German NT and his former players have no respect whatsoever for him which is why despite his agent's efforts no one's offering him a position.

that's not it I think
Freund and Eberl at Bayern are looking into a different coaching profile. If you look at the people they prioritized like Alonso, Emery, Nagelsman, now De Zerbi

He would be ideal for Barca even for up to 2 years: instill the right mentality and sound tactical identity.
Someone like Nagelsmann with a higher ceiling could take over from there.
But that in clubs that work properly, not in circuses

They had an agreement with Ralf Rangnick until he backed out.

Yes that was pretty odd. Doesn't fit any profile and he is not really a coach but an SD.
Maybe that was some kind of agreement to also lead a restructuring

JUST IN: Flick, Marquez and Gallardo are 3 candidates to replace Xavi. @martinezferran

Team Gallardo. He's easily the most inspired choice. Whatever happens no to fucking Flick. Not even Bayern wants him back. And I have seen the documentary :lol:

Gallardo is much more proven than Tata was tbf.

Also has experience from a top 5 league in the world. :troll:

But do we really want someone who was sacked by Al-Ittihad after not qualifying for Asian CL with players like Benz, Kante and Fabinho?

He is definitely underperforming with Al Itthiad but we also have to consider they won the league last season so motivation isnt high

@soul24rage will love him though :pique:


from Saudi i would take Luis Castro or Jorge Jesus - both are topclass 💯

They have negotiated with Ragnick and with Tuchel to stay.
Bayern has no profile nor direction atm, and it seems the only thing they agree is no Flick.

And it seems the same case with Barca, who have 3 of their most senior players being coached by him, and yet we never tried to get him.
Same thing with other clubs that have coaching openings, he wasn't linked to Liverpool, and while Manu, , and Chelsea still have coaches, they have ton of coaches linked to them and Flick name is barely there.

@DonAK is right tbh, something is their with Flick, the way both Germany and Bayern let him go, and how no one wants him is weird.
Maybe there is a character issue that isn't apparent to fans.

Allegri just spontaneously conbusted for Juve, taking Motta out of the market.

With a few rubles to spend next summer, probably the best choice.

Motta that is.
