I know the wages are good, and no matter how crap you are at the job you'll usually walk into another high paid job after you get sacked but you have to feel some sympathy for football managers.
Roberto Di Matteo becomes the latest "hero to zero" despite in only eight months winning the Champions league, the FA Cup and steering Chelsea into 5th place after their poor start last year.
They sit 3rd in the Premiership despite losing Drogba and having Terry, Cole and Lampard missing for a lot of the season.
Ancelotti got lumbered with over £70 million worth of misfiring striker and an erratic centre half because Abramovich wanted them, and AVB and Di Matteo have carried the same burden, but of course it's their fault.
I don't really like Nigel Adkins but can't believe they are talking of dumping him after 2 straight promotions, and Brian McDermott is another who has performed miracles to get Reading to the Premier league and is also being tipped to go soon?
I can't really sympathise with Mark Hughes who must take some of the blame for bringing in so many average and past it players to disrupt any team spirit that QPR had.
Rafael Benitez?
ReplyDeleteI'm astounded.
Looking for a silver-lining here, we'll likely get to see more Moses or Piazon on the pitch...
...and I hope that Drogba is coming back sooner than later!
What a day!
I feel so sorry for you and Longy, it must be like a bad dream.
ReplyDeleteWorrying as the January transfer window is coming up and you face the prospect of buying a shed load of dodgy foreigners.
The only person who could possibly be happy about this is Fergie who will get the chance to wind loony Rafa up again every week.
I can't even begin to tell you how pissed off I am. That Spanish cunt,that Russian cunt,that American cunt and that Spurs supporting cunt are going to some abuse on Sunday.
