^ Lmao.  I don't post in this thread much but I do lurk in here from time to time.  How can you say that Zidane isn't a great coach/manager after winning the CL back to back and a chance to win a third one, making it three.

One bad year doesn't make somebody 'not great'.  He did a great job at Real imo.

Totally agree, Zidane is clearly a great coach not to mention one of the greatest players EVER. I bet players love to play for him. Real’s problem is most of their main players are now in their 30’s, no coach can defy age.

I agree with you, that Zidane actually requires new young players to be able to enliven the competition in a competition. Regeneration is needed in a team because a team will not be able to continue to be the players who are in the squad to become the core team. Young players can give new colors to the game of a team and obviously, Zidane needs it.

Most renowned managers have all had bad years in their career but because Zidane has achieved something that most managers only dream about and because there are a lot of Real Madrid haters in the world that's why most people are so critical of his success and am sure that if Florentino Perez doesn't give him the sack then he will be able to turn things around.

Zidane has won 8 trophies in 2 years, no one has done better than him!
 a negative period after 2 years so intense is physiological.
 Real Madrid actually has a very high average age, has also invested little for new players and indeed has sold very strong players like Morata and James Rodriguez.
For me Zidane deserves to be the coach of Real Madrid at least for 1 other season with 2-3 new top players.

Even though Morata is currently playing to his potential at Chelsea, I still think that Zidane selling him was a big mistake and the James Rodriguez deal is a loan rather than Bayern Munich buying him outright and one can say that Zidane has an eye for the young talents.

Tomorrow we have Valencia to face Barcelona in Coppa Del Rey the first leg ended with the Catalan team winning 1-0 so for this game Valencia needs to go forward and try to score but they have been on a very poor run lately losing 5 games in row and it's a great chance to lose this one also because Barcelona don't want to take chances that the hosts can eliminate them from reaching the final again so I think this clash will have couple goals from both sides Barcelona could be in a little trouble as Pique could be not ready to start with Vermaelen is already not gonna be available so my tip for this match is going to be both teams scoring.

Meanwhile, Sevilla is the first finalist having won today against Leganes. if Barcelona will score at least 1 goal tomorrow it will almost certainly be qualified because Valencia can hardly win with 2 goals of difference.

Barcelona won the match with 2 goals and now they also made it finals, So the finals is between Sevilla vs Barcelona, which i think will be very good as Sevilla have more chances to win the trophy if they play properly.

But a couple of years ago I was one of the naysayers.  I think you all saw me and Falconer argue about it at the EPL thread.  Lol.

Winning the CL back to back changed all that.  I partly hope he wins it a third time, leaves Real (basically saying FU) and ride the sunset while laughing his ass off.

I'm pretty sure Arsenal and Chelsea would want him.  Maybe even Bayern or Juve?

Let's be honest, Zidane is good manager, that's it. The fact that he won the CL back to back doesn't change the fact that he's still in his early years as a manager and has a A LOT to learn. You can see a good manager when he's winning, yes, everything's easy and everyone's happy, but what about when the team is having what could possibly be one of the worst seasons in the history of the club? where's the great manager that everyone's keep talking about? oh the players are having a bad season? then what about last year? why does Zidane get the spotlight for the 2 champions leagues and not the players?

Honestly, if he decides to leave the club, he'll go as one of the most succesful RM managers, but certainly, not as the best coach in Real Madrid.

And to me, there is absolutely no way that Bayern or Juve will go after Zidane, 100% sure, they've had the likes of Heynckes, Allegri, Guardiola, Conte, and even some old school legends like Ottmar Hitzfeld and Marcello Lippi, i'm certain you can see how big of a downgrade is to have Zidane. Now a second-tier club like Arsenal, that's a different story.

[tokeweed]

^ Sure.  But name a manager besides Zidane who won the CL back to back in the modern era.  Not even Pep, Mou or Ancelloti has done it under the same (more or less) conditions as him.

PSG is another club that would be willing to get him.

Edit:  Reading it again, yeah, I guess Bayern is a long shot but Juve?  Still quite reachable imo.

Malaga will face Atletico Madrid at La Rosaleda Stadium this weekend, having stuck to the bottom of the table in the Spanish La Liga, Malaga seems to have accepted their fate to get relegated this season, I can't seems to find any fighting spirit in this team at the moment, and I believe this will be an easy victory for Atletico Madrid.

[daarul50]

Getafe should not be a tough opponent for Barcelona this weekend and I'm sure Barcelona can win this match easily even I think that Barcelona will play some of the players who are on the bench often this season to give them a chance to play and rest players- key players to prepare for their match at UCL later.

Yes, the Getafe is really a weak team out while Barcelona at home wins almost every game.
In Liga he will surely play coutinho because he can not play in the champion's league.
This week I expect that Real Madrid vs Real Sociedad will be a really fun match, because both teams are very offensive but also suffer many goals.

They are on a roll with their past couple of matches and just hope they can manage to iron out the bad press now with the deal to sign on Antonio Greizmann away from Athletico Madrid.
But according to the team that traded Neymar off to Paris St.Germain, he could be on his team instead.

Atletico Madrid just had a single shot on target and a single goal to win their game against Malaga today and i can say that they didn't deserve to win today's game at all but sometimes it is the way it is. Malaga had three shots on target but they couldn't do anything with it.

[bering]

for upcoming matches Laliga spain i would like to combine Barcelona ML and Real Madrid ML into small parlay because Barcelona will met Getafe and Real Madrid will met Real Sociedad so i have no doubted these big teams will have good results today because Getafe and Real Sociedad is mediocre teams so if there will be no suprising results i think Barcelona and Madrid should be easy to win

hattrick for Cr7 in 5-2 of Real Madrid against Real Sociedad.
Cristiano Ronaldo finally seems in good shape and is ready to sink the PSG in the Champion's League!

CR7 revival this will make a potential opponent at UCL PSG must be careful because CR7 could be a player who became a nightmare for PSG. The victory of Real Sociedad is the initial capital for Real Madrid to prepare for the UCL game later as the win also indicates that Zidane is ready to seize his only chance of winning the trophy this season. In addition, I am happy with CR7 hattrick because with three goals it means also indicates that CR7 is still worth to be calculated and still be the toughest rival for Lionel Messi in terms of scoring goals.

Yeah. I did think that Ronaldo was out of it as Messi was running away with scoring so many goals and Ronaldo was playing flat and his team was suffering losses at the hands of lesser teams then they are.
Now that Cristiano has found his left right foot again we can see him score more goals and be a contender to Lionel yet again.

After appointing Montella Sevilla is yet to see success with the Italian manager getting just one win from his first 5 games and now they lost the important Nolito owner due to injuries but they still got more offensive options also they have an important advantage from their home ground as they collected 21 points from possible 30 at home also they need this win because if Girona won it will cause them to drop behind the visitors on lead Board. Girona will be playing against Sevilla for the third time. suffered two defeats in the face of Sevilla so i think that the hosts will be looking for both less then a win Girona are without a win in the past 4 visits that will boost the chances for home win much higher to be expected.
