    Anyway a two year deal would suggest that the incoming Manager/Head Coach has more faith in his ability than the club does
    True, and as the average tenure in the premier league is about 2 years it's realistic.

    You would think... however the pull of Real is too great. I believe it's 6 Basque managers of Real down the years...

    Even since 2018 both Lopetegui (only a dozen or so games) and Alonso have sat in the hot seat.

    Shout out to honorary Basque ...Big John Toshack... who twice managed Real..

    Hehe, if there's not much in the transfer kitty he'll have to be a loan arranger.

    He insists on 2 year deals. He got that from Marcelo Bielsa, when he worked under him.

    I was shocked too. You’d think maybe 1 or 2… but 6…?
