Wont matter at Barca thou, the players are not bothered.

This is the challenge, make them bothered. If he can do that then he’ll have earned his salary.

Only way he'd be able to succeed is if he's allowed to get rid of Piquet, Busquets, Suarez, Griezmann and maybe Alba and even Messi and build something new.

He won't get the time thou as the next president will get elected by promising to bring in Xavi as manager.

well known shoestring budget manager Klopp is crying again about other teams spending money

He's such a berk.

Laughs loudly when he's winning and people lap it up.

Has bought into the victim mentality there fully.

Eddie Howe seems an obvious pick for them. Not sure how he'd handled the pressure there once fans are allowed back as they'll be going after the Porno dwarf again.

2 relegations in a row, would suit the hype about Howe

Ståle Solbakken has just been sacked by FC Copenhagen after 7 years there.

Wonder if he is in line to replace Lars Lagerbäck as manager for Norway? LL has been getting a lot of grief this week after failing to take Norway to the Euro's.

LL is supposedly safe according to their FA and he is a very good manager but his problem has always been that he doesn't really do that much better when he has better players. And Norway has a very talented young team who could become a surprise package in a few years. Maybe time for a change.

The match versus Serbia was terrible management. Starting Stefan Johansen and Markus Henriksen both players who's hardly played football the past year was a baffling decision.

I'd be surprised if LL still got the job at end of the year.

Solbakken would probably be the first name on a shortlist for a new national manager.

Another managerial dud has come out with a Bruce like defence. Neil Lemon has called Celtic fans hysterical for suggesting he update his tactics as they struggle in a 1 team league, this after an embarassing Champions League exit

Is Solbakken actually rated? Remember him being useless for Wolves after they got relegated, only lasted about 4 months and he signed some useless players. Was actually a bit like OGS at Cardiff....

He came out and said there was no justification for sacking him. What about the reasons they sacked you last time Neil? I hope he costs them the 10 in a row.

Garry Monk soon to be sacked. Another pay off.

How do these cretins keep getting gigs.

Garry 'dodgy as ****' Monk. He's a smarmy word removed as well.

Seems there's tedious Bielsa v Smith debates on here every other week but to me Hassenhuttl is probably the most underrated prem manager. Followed him in the Bundesliga and he did great stuff with Ingolsadt and had Leipzig finishing 2nd ahead of Dortmund.

Had some bad results in his first year there but they now look a very good side home and way. Can see them finishing 7th or 8th.
