    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..

    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…?
