Barca LOL
WTF!
Koemanās agent, Rob Jansen, summed it up perfectly: āImagine: I want to marry you, but I have doubts. Give me two weeks to find a better partner. If I canāt find the right person, we will get married anyway!ā
Koeman today read out a statement at his pre-match presser then walked out.
Something along the lines of the board are behind me on building this club back. Reading the BBC article (linked by @CanuckoLFC) this morning, itās clear Koeman is the winner out of all of this. If he stays, heās paid, if heās sacked heās paid.
I found it funny that he āloanedā Barca the money in order to buy out his previous contract. Embarrassing.
Iām going tune into the Cadiz gameā¦. Could be another amusing night.
Barca crash and burn is brilliant.
I can see them having to go thro an AC Milan style 5-10 years in the wilderness
Koeman is going to be shown the door isnt he.
Will Van Gaal go back to fuck them over again for 6 months?
No, he will not. Koeman could not wait to jump on the Barcelona train leaving the Dutch National team although he still had a contract.
People may think van Gaal is a rude stubborn guy and they are a not wrong but he is also a man with strong principals and he will not leave the Dutch National team before his contract expires.
Another draw against a weak team, itās no longer will he be sacked but when.
Can they financially afford to sack him?
Why not clubs like Barcelona can always āfindā some cash to sack the trainer.
Just some more debt to add to their wage to revenue ratio, assuming manager wages and/or termination fees add to aforementioned ratio, + new managers wages. They already canāt register Aguero atm, even if he was not injured, so they need to trim some more before January I think.
Those were their (Alaves) first points in six games.
Glad to see Real Madrid also held.
Koeman on the brink and talk of Pirlo taking over.
They wanted one of the old guard taking over last season following the elections but were snubbed because of the mess the club was in.
They need to hold on until they are further down the track financially, otherwise they may just add to the mess.
Pirlo? Have they had a manager in recent times who has not played for them atleast once?
Iād genuinely like to see them appoint Allardyce. Heās always said he could do the job. Letās see it.
They still need to drop down a few more places before he considers them.
Nah, heād accept a few bags of pork scratchings to manage them.
