Temptation
Well-known member
You know what? I respect his self awareness. He knows he'll be crap in most clubs so he decides to go for only 2 jobs(RM and France) which he can be good at.Do you know any coach who is 'interested' in only 1 club job and 1 NT job?
Maybe only Xavi and Zidane fill that list
There is a reason why ALL TOP coaches try themselves out in different environments and prove themselves there.
Even SAF who stayed so many years at UTD had successes before (at Aberdeen) that brought him to UTD in the first place.
Zizou is simply a coward who does not want to get exposed, and all this cowardice is masked in the 'I am only interested in 2 job' ridiculous excuse
He built a legacy (3 CLs) he never deserved given his coaching abilities, and is smart enough to realize that all that will collapse once he gets an even minimally challenging job, let alone the tough ones
He prefers to hide in the NT with the best generational squad, and have very % chances of winning a WC or Euro
Isn't it better than vastly overrating your own ability and stealing wages to satisfy your ego?
Probably doesn't want to spoil his insane legacy in the sport.
