He tried so hard...

>>64683386
Inter handed to him a treble-winning team with a completely dominated Italian league and got fired by Dec. 23rd.
Fuck this guy
I barely knew 'im m8
>>64683464
And went so far..
It would have been a lot less embarrassing if they hadn't given his job to pic related
>>64683500
BUT IN THE END
No, everyone knows how cancerous Perez is

Yes I do, it's ridiculous just how much power certain players at Madrid have.
>>64683852

>>64684125
>>Had a dogshit defence that have way too much power behind the scenes

>>64684125
You forgot:
>Got disqualified in la Copa
>Got rekt by Barcelona
>Hated by his players
>Playing shitty football
Yes ;_;
>>64684383
It's not his fault the club fucked up and didn't tell him a player was banned
I still love him.
>>64684125
>Got totally refballed against Valencia
Hahaha. 'no'

i do feel for him, yes. He's like the kid who got bullied at school, it's only at a later stage in life you realize how sad it all was and the damage that has been done.
Wait until all you NEET faggots have a job and want to grow in it, soon you'll realize no one gives a fuck what you're capable of doing, it's who you are and who you know. You'll see bright and fun colleagues who actually care for their workplace and have been there for years get fucked over for a promotion because the dude who arrived at the office a few months earlier dresses nice and took up smoking once he understood the boss smoked too.
I'm 100% sure he's a better, brighter and more down to earth coach than loudmouth Mourinho or you-want-to-know-me Guardiola but yeah, he looks like a fat spanish waiter and he has the charisma of fat, spanish waiter. Shame on the players for not giving it their all for the guy, he could have made them great again.
fuck every single one of you
>>64686105
you should've started smoking m8
>>64683386
arrogant fat tuck
>>64684562
disqualified in copa was also really bad, more considering it was the second time it happened to BenÃtez
>>64686105
I fucking miss Rafa so much, nobody will ever replace him for me ;__;
>>64683386
>>64686105
>>64683386
JUST
i do, but hey what can you expect from real madrid after they treated a legend like casillas like they did? i reckon, maybe if he didnt get his ass handed to him by barcelona, he probably would still be there
>>64687102
ouch, if this is true halal has a big problem in the dressing room

You're Brazilian and you need a translation from a Spanish text? Use your fucking brain cells for once. Portuguese and Spanish are like sister languages
>>64687594
'players never cared about what Benitez had to say, even in their first match while he was giving instructions players would be scratching their elbows and laughing between them. I have never seen something like that'
>>64687594
Players ignored Benitez from day one. They were looking down and laughing when he talked in the locker room.

GIVE SOLDIERS FOOTBALLERS WAGES!!
>>64687890
Hey look it's this bullshit argument again. Just because you get paid a lot of money doesn't mean you stop feeling human emotion.
Football manager is an incredibly stressful job, it nearly killed Gerrard Houllier with the heart attack.
Tests show how stressful on the body it can be:
During the match, Allardyce's blood pressure and heart rate hit potentially dangerous levels.
At one point, his heart rate reached 160 beats per minute, four times his normal resting pulse.
Bassett's results were just as disturbing.
His blood pressure peaked at 190mmHg, he also suffered irregular heartbeat as the game reached a climax and his heart rate topped out at 120bpm.

This team need signings tho
This season is over, Zidane is basically getting thrown to the wolves
>>64687890
>humans cant have emotions because they have money
You sure are one sad bitter fag
>>64687983
>160 beats per minute, four times his normal resting pulse
lel Allardyce doesn't have a 40 bpm resting pulse. Probably closer to 80
>>64687926
I didn't say that. Im not saying "dur hur footballers get payed too much". What I'm saying is that having a job like Benitez had where he could literally fuck up as much as he wanted and would still get payed millions just to plan some manchild sports tactics to the best players in the world cannot be considered a hard job. It takes talent and luck to get where he is, but don't say it is a hard job. There is a lot of pressure into it, but that is the case with all high paying jobs. The man will definitely find another top club to hire him soon and make more millions.
>>64688058
I want players to at least try to play now
>you have to be good looking to be a coach of a top team now
seriously you normies. i couldn't hate you more. what have you done to this world? all normies should die.
>>64688114
>t-they sucked because they weren't trying.
Nice delusion there.
>>64684125
This.
As a Liverpool supporter I'll always love Rafa.
Yes, he was never given a proper chance. Mourinho and Ancelotti weren't doing any better after 6 months.
Also anyone blaming that CdR debacle on Benitez is retarded and has absolutely 0 idea how a football club works
>>64683651

Edgy spaniard expat trying to sound as a true briton

but no you're right, he should be given MORE time
>lose 3 games

biggest joke club in the world
>>64687671
source? besides, just because this guy said so, does it mean that it's true?
>>64689873
>7 points behind top spot after January
>BTFO 5-0 by biggest rivals
>accuses players of being dressing room moles
that's Mourinho after 7 months in charge
>>64689960
this is a lot different though. zidane knows the club already, he's now been assistant manager, sporting director, coach of the B team. he's more experienced now. if they sacked mourinho in january way back then they'd need to get a coach in who could take months to settle in and for the players to get used to him, probably making the season worse. zidane was too inexperienced at that point.
>>64689893
When you're at the bench of the best club in history, the one that has more european titles than ManU, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea COMBINED, you're expected to deliver soon.
Besides, having that squad and not beging able to defeat the likes of Sporting Gijon, the current Valencia, etc? Cmon. That might be acceptable at the EPL, but not where you have to compete against Barcelona, Atletico, Sevilla and the likes.
>>64690048
>if you lose 3 games you should be sacked
No and don't try to turn this into a boring discussion about EPLEL, that's completely irrelevant. Nobody deserves to be sacked for losing 3 games. It's ridiculous.
>>64690093
You forgot the ridiculous way they got sacked out of the Copa del Rey?
>>64690048
>the one that has more european titles than ManU, Liverpool, Arsenal and Chelsea COMBINED
>>64690045
Then why not hire Zidane in June if they think he's a better candidate? Did those few months make him go from too inexperienced to being able to take over on the fly in mid season?
>>64690105
Yes that was Rafa's fault obviously.
>>64690105
If you blame that CdR debacle on Benitez you're either retarded or have absolutely 0 idea how a football club works
>>64690113
Bayern fan here. Bet you're a Barcelona fan. In any case, what counts is what the UEFA page says, and it says 10 European titles for Madrid.
Sorry for you, that you have to live being the eternal second best.
>>64686105
>>64690134
Go read the spanish press today. There's even an article citing the ten biggest reasons, and this article cites as the three most important: (1) lack of proper communication with the squad; (2) losing with direct rivals and without any display of tactics; and (3) Copa del Rey
>>64690048
>but not where you have to compete against Barcelona
You might as well have stopped there the rest are literally irrelevant.
>>64690185
Just because some tabloid wrote it doesn't make it right. It's not the coach's job to monitor player eligibility
>>64690137
>"Sorry you're not the only big fish in a little pond like me"
>>64690137
I only support my local club that is Celta de Vigo i don't really care about Barcelona or Madrid.
Counting 50s and 60s european trophies together with actual champions leagues is a farce, it wasn't the same competition anyone can see that.
>>64686105
right in the feelmaker
I dont even get why he was fired
>ro16 CL
Check
>first in the CL group
Check
>still possible to win the league
Check
Unironically blaming him for the farce that was the Spanish cup is a joke.
>>64690420
the played shit against better teams
very shit compared to the good years
>>64690188
>the rest are literally irrelevant
>sevilla, current 2x uefa champion
>atletico, second to last CL finalist that completely humiliated the eplel winner in the toruney and has been smashing halal lately
wew lad, you may need to get a clue soon
>>64690440
And why would that matter if they still managed to reach the mid season goals?
>>64690420
>the farce that was the Spanish cup
lel
>field sanctioned player
>get the standard punishment, kicked out of the competition, second time it happens to Benitez
>b-b-but it was a farce
>>64690420
He was fired because the players didn't like him from day one and didn't respect any of his decisions. Every big name on the team had already said shit about Benitez to the media. He was also getting whistled by bernabeu in every match after the 0-4 vs Barcelona.
He has no charisma to lead a locker room full of ego and firing Ancelotti to bring him is one the most retarded things Florentino has ever done.
>>64690527
Farce as in: how the fuck is the player not responsible for that? If I was the coach I wouldnt even think of checking.
FAT
The only guy I'm feeling bad for now is Zidane.
>>64690559
Most footballers are genuinely retarded, it's the coaches job to keep them organised.

>>64688284
it's true, though
>>64690587
He will never have a chance with the bunch of immature, self-centred lazy prima-donnas that is this RM squad.
>>64687671
Absolute fucking joke club, I don't think I've heard of anything as disrespectful and shitty as this in football
>Gets expelled from the Copa del Rey for playing a suspended player
I would say it's not his fault, that he shouldn't have checked if it wasn't the SECOND time it's happened to him.
>Lose 4-0 to Barcelona
I'd say it wasn't his fault if he showed any tactical awareness whatsoever. The guy had absolutely no idea how to respond, the players did not look like they had a clear plan at all. First time Real have been dominated by Barca is such a way since 2010.
>Fail to beat Atletico, Barcelona, Villareal, Valencia.
But the team scored 47 goals. 16 of which against only two teams. So it's alright he failed every big test he had if the team smashed the tiny teams, r-right?
>His only clear tactic was crossing, and more crossing.
I think this Madrid team have been playing the most boring football I've ever seen them play. Complete breakdown from the way Ancelotti had them playing.
>None of the players respect him
And why would they? What's he achieved? His most impressive feats as a coach were 12 and 13 years ago. He got fired in December from a treble winning Inter team. He embarrassed himself in Liverpool with his facts speach. He spent a fuckton in Napoli, won absolutely nothing of note. Hamsik literally turned to shit as soon as he took over and is goating it up again as soon as he left.
I feel bad for him as he's a lifelong Madridista, but he was NEVER going to be the right manager for this club. He's just not that good.
>People already writing Zidane off
Honestly, Zidane has a top eye for talent, especially after he brought Varane to the club. He's learned from Mou, Ancelotti, and even Pep. He's won literally everything there is to win in football, and players respect him and look up to him. When you see a world cup winner, CL winner, Ballon d'Or winner, Euro winner, you shut up and listen. He basicallt managed France to the 2006 WC final. I'm not saying he's a guarenteed success, but don't write him off just yet.
>>64686105

herp derp better fire the manager after 4 months
