Should Real Madrid dismiss Pellegrini ?

[Interista]

I read Spalletti is the front runner to take over if Pellegrini is sacked. Great news for Madrid. One of the best coaches in the World without a doubt. What he did with that Roma side was amazing considering the budget he was on. I pray it doesn't happen though. I was hoping Spalletti could take over at Inter after we sack the overrated one.

Yes because it would be very helpful for us if a bit more commotion were to be created... It would be all the more a case of CRISIS!
However from a Madrid fan's point of view, the exact opposite, for the exact same reasons.

But as Beast is asking for the Madrid pov, I will vote no.

Well, that is not his fault... he made a great job in "yellow submarine"... he try built a team... put "galacticos" playing for TVs... that's not very easy...

spalletti would be perfect for real..

his 4-2-3-1 with inter changing positions would suit madrid to the tits when they have so many goal scorers in the team.

I think you're close to the truth here and for me the attitude of the current real madrid is summed up by Pepe taunting Fernando Torres because Liverpool had only won 5 European Cups, Torres quite rightly quipped "but how many have you won?". I think that right now players are arriving at real madrid and they're seeing the history as some sort of personal accolade which they can claim for themselves rather than as something to aspire to. Players being presented at the Bernabéu in front of all the European cups when they weren't the players that won them is just wrong, we all know what's in the madrid trophy cabinet yet players are arriving and thinking they've already won the lot. The attitude of entitlement and an arrogance that means the players believe they can win matches without getting off the coach is prevalent in the CL more than anywhere, a competition in which madrid have been booted out in the first KO stage since they last won the cup. The belief that madrid "own" the European cup means they don't go out there to give everything because they believe they should be given it all to begin with.

Yes, CA. This is exactly what I was trying to get across, there is an embodied arrogance of the players that makes motivation and discipline difficult for the/any manager.

Beast you have moved on to tactical problems, for sure Manu can be blamed for problems with the system. My suggestion would be that at Villarreal he selected players for HIS system. While in Madrid he is given players, and instead of finding a system that best suits them, he is still trying to push his system on them. Its a folly for sure, but I have sympathy for him in the sense that he is trying to be manager with his hands tied. Which like Sunny says is more the fault of Perez.

I can see the "Christmas Tree" working well with your team, provided you can get more player discipline and understanding that the wing backs must also track back.

Exactly what I was thinking. You never know with Spalletti though. He might look at the resources and conjure up something completely new.

P.S No thumbsup smileys? Stange considering there's a thumbsdown..

Well Perez has came out & supported Pellegrini so no Luciano

Spalletti's ultimate downfall at Roma was a failure to control the ego of one primadonna - Totti. He wouldn't stand a chance of controlling that Madrid dressing room. It's for the best that you keep Manu over him.

Well as a Barca's fan i'd say no because it may be better for us if he stayed.

But,trying to be as objective as i can i think Pellegrini isn't completely guilty for Real's terrible performances.

First,this disaster against Alcorcon can't be his fault,players like Raul,Benzema,Guti,Drenthe and co. should have played decently even without a coach ,it's team from Segunda B and i think coach can't help much if players can't do anything to not be humiliated like this.

But also,generally,Pellegrini's era in RM is not something i was entranced by.I understand these are new players,new system,but those are not kids who are playing football for the 1st time.So they had to start a bit better but,more important ,in my opinion is-I always said that good forward doesn't mean winning a treble.Spending so much money to buy CR,Kaka,Benzema... isn't normal when you have such a terrible defense.And now it's becoming obvious how terrible Madrid's actions were during the transfer period.

So now it's actually all same to me ,i think Real can bring 100 new coaches but until January they can't do anything important,till they buy some decent defense players.

11m to sack Manu after paying 4m compensation to get him away from Villarreal.

let's hope they try the "100 new coaches" strategy before considering the "buy defense" strategy.

good post, as well.

No. Madrid are 3 points behind us and if they sack him now they will lose points during the managerless/first few days of the new manager. He will not last the full season but he will be manager at the Camp Nou the first Clasico.

 

[[FCB]Messi[10]

There is no point to sack Pellegrinii now. I might now be a Madrid fan, but I honestly think he is doing good with the team. They are just 3 points behind us, and no body should be blaming him for the loss against Alcorcón. It wasn't his fault that the players F***** up, every team has an off day. But if this continues with the losses coming in more often at the end of the season, then we just might see a new face at Madrid next season.

The funny thing is Pellegrini's handling of the Riquelme situation was probably better than Spalletti's inability to control Totti. Spalletti is a good coach yes but I'm not sure how he could cope with Madrid's horrible locker room.

I voted no but as a Barca fan I hope you do fire him. Pellegrini was one of the most respected coaches in La Liga and while he hasn't done a good job sacking him will confirm that the Madrid manager's seat is a poisoned chalice. Also to get Spalletti you would need to pay off Zenit, the reason Atleti didn't hire him. Maybe mere pennies for the great Madrid but after throwing money around so loosely over the summer, to buy off Manu and free Spalletti from Zenit you are adding more debt. Spain is still one of Europe's worst economies right now and this can't go on forever.

Pellegrini didn't handle Riquelme, he got rid of him, that's a key point because no Real Madrid manager could get rid of a galáctico just as Spaletti can't get rid of Totti.
