Now it seems Roberto Martinez is the frontrunner.Conte was in pole position but is being greedy apparently.

That's got to be a smoke screen......?Now it seems Roberto Martinez is the frontrunner.
Perez needs a yes man,neither Conte or Poch are that.By that I mean player power rules the bernabeu,try and install your philosophy and discipline,perez backs the players.I get the feeling Martinez can live with those rules more easily.That's got to be a smoke screen......?
He employed Mourinho??Perez needs a yes man,neither Conte or Poch are that.By that I mean player power rules the bernabeu,try and install your philosophy and discipline,perez backs the players.I get the feeling Martinez can live with those rules more easily.
We saw at chelsea Jose lived with the dressing room having control and what happened 2nd time around when he tried to put his foot down,When you have an all dominating team pulling as a unit to win everything,you can allow a team to lead itself to a degree,madrid (and chelsea after jose) were a power on the wane,and need(ed) someone to come in establish control again.Thats where madrid are now,they need someone to take control,but ramos,marcelo and the older bigger players will resist and I still think push comes to shove Perez will back them still.Wrong but I dont think he will allow a coach/manager control.Can you imagine their pampered galacticos allowing a coach like conte/poch who will train them hard without back channeling the chairman and undermining them.He employed Mourinho??
Fair comment, I like the analysis, Levy needs to back Poch soon then!We saw at chelsea Jose lived with the dressing room having control and what happened 2nd time around when he tried to put his foot down,When you have an all dominating team pulling as a unit to win everything,you can allow a team to lead itself to a degree,madrid (and chelsea after jose) were a power on the wane,and need(ed) someone to come in establish control again.Thats where madrid are now,they need someone to take control,but ramos,marcelo and the older bigger players will resist and I still think push comes to shove Perez will back them still.Wrong but I dont think he will allow a coach/manager control.Can you imagine their pampered galacticos allowing a coach like conte/poch who will train them hard without back channeling the chairman and undermining them.
Yeah, Martinez is pretty famously a soft touch when it comes to man management.Perez needs a yes man,neither Conte or Poch are that.By that I mean player power rules the bernabeu,try and install your philosophy and discipline,perez backs the players.I get the feeling Martinez can live with those rules more easily.
I loved the bit he was near the top of their wanted list.........From the BBC Sport gossip page - clue is in the last word in brackets.
Tottenham manager Mauricio Pochettino has told Real Madrid he will not be leaving Spurs, despite being offered £15m a year to take over at the Spanish club. (Sun)
I agree and think the 'gossip' section is just as bad if not worse. There is little to no truth in any of it.I loved the bit he was near the top of their wanted list.........
TBH i have no faith at all in the sun,mirror,mail,express,they just make up stuff for content,i even try to click as rarely as I can on their sites.I find it quite annoying that the BBC advertises for these rags in that gossip section.
Not holding my breath on that one. Somebody on one of the podcasts was pointing out that Poch and Mourinho had very similar grievances against their clubs (he acknowledged Jose had had lots more £ spent on him, but both were unhappy with their summer dealings). Look at the difference in how the two have gone about their business since the window closed.From Telegraph Sport - Levy's last chance to back the manager? My take is that Poch's new £8m contract saved Levy's bacon and a revolt from us lot.

Nope.... not for me....From Telegraph Sport - Levy's last chance to back the manager? My take is that Poch's new £8m contract saved Levy's bacon and a revolt from us lot.

Yes good point, I read that somewhere too. One is whingeing and underachieving , disuniting and dividing his squad, the other is a professional magician.Not holding my breath on that one.

The Macclesfield town manager would disagree with that. He would have been the 'master' if the entire world had not been racist. I can't wait for him to fail, because he will and he will blame everybody else like he always does. Bastard, dirty fucking bastard, I hate him with a passion that will never die, when people talk of 'burying the hatchet', I think that would be a great idea, but then I realise it doesn't mean what I think it does.Probably the best manager in world football today.
I am really hoping Leeds win promotion. I would love to see the master (Bielsa) against his apprentice.

poch just wont talk about it.Cant see anyway he would shit on us and his morals,especially to another english club.This is big ron era man utd not prime fergie time,they are in a considerably worse state than that,poch isnt purely money motivated,whether its his wages or huge transfer budgets.So I guess it’ll be highly likely Utd will try and prize Poch away from us, with promises of riches beyond his wildest dreams and a transfer budget to match. I’d love him to come out and dismiss the speculation and categorically tell us he’s not interested.
Can’t say i’m too bothered to be honest and it may actually work in our favour, with Levy having the same concerns and offering him a considerable warchest.

Happened before...a massive fallout between Poch and Levy. I cannot see this happening
Happened before...
I meant Levy and other gaffers.Did it? Or are we believing the media.........
Wasn't that Harry's combination of alleged tax fraud and England job though. Nothing wrong with the playing style.I meant Levy and other gaffers.
The king of the jungle and him fell out at the height of our champions league prowess.
Yeah totally.... I was just trying to explain (not that I need to) that levy is a cunt and does fall out with gaffers.Wasn't that Harry's combination of alleged tax fraud and England job though. Nothing wrong with the playing style.
