And after Lucho benched Messi and Neymar, the news broke that unless he wins the next 2-3 matches, he is sacked.
Was it against Sociedad in the next round which could have been his last match?
Nobody could have benched our superstars.
No wonder that we had to hire EVs, Setiens and similar.
Coaches who won't fight with our amigos but play them and hope for the best.
A top manager doesn't take the job in the first place in that case. Only weaker managers will accept such a serious compromise. A top manager has multiple career options on the table and is never in a position to be unemployed due to a lack of offers from top clubs.
Thing is we positioned ourselves in a way that we had to settle for poorer managers who had no better career option than just let the amigos do their thing and try to work around that. The older and slower the amigos get, the more problems the manager will face.
