His salary is still less than some of the players, unsure what the Josh Mc reference is for but to clear up he is on nothing like that salary

As Pipe said, can we please stop knocking Josh all the time? He doesn't deserve these sly digs at his salary. I don't believe he is on anything like that but the simple truth is, he signed a contract with a salary that BFC were prepared to pay. Can we please move on?
Managerial Thread 2018 / 2019
He's not knocking JM he's having his sly pop at certain posters who have commented on JM being one of the highest paid. Malaga is his biggest fan.

Isn’t that trolling and against the COC ?

Sorry Newport I will try my hardest not to have sly digs at multi-millionaire Josh McEachran’s extortionate salary.
Looks like Leeds fans dont want Bruce anywhere near the city.

Yep:

I know he did a great job at Ostersunds, but he hasn't managed in England before, didn't spend much (any?) time in the Championship when he was a player (which was well over a decade ago in any case), so he could be forgiven for needing a season or two to get up to speed.
Will Swansea allow him to spend that much of their parachute money while he learns on the job?
Or will they be demanding pretty much instant success?

That covers his food bill, but he's still struggling to scrape together the price of a nose job.

Anyhow, Spain have just sacked their (popular and successful) Head Coach, Julen Lopetegui, just two days before their opening World Cup game:
https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/44467548
And all because he had the temerity to agree to manage Real Madrid after the World Cup was over.
How precious/childish/idiotic are the Spanish FA?
Make the (English) FA look positively sensible!

And have appointed Frankie Bunn in his place. In his first "proper" managerial job. At the age of 55. On a one year contract.
"Now that's what I call Long Term Planning. Not!"
He'll be back in the New Year, as usual, mark my words.Time to turn back to John Sheridan, after his week at Carlisle?

Madness, considering he was unbeaten as Spain manager. Mind you, Real could have at least waited until the tournament was over or Spain were knocked out before making the announcement.

They could have, but why would they?
In another month, some of their existing players (Bale? Ronaldo?) could have been tapped up, while some of their target replacements could have signed elsewhere.
In the end, the Spanish FA should just have accepted their man was going, sucked it up and got on with it.
In fact, they could even have used it to their favour i.e. "Give it one last go for Julen, lads"

I don't know if this is true or not, but I was told that a 3rd party leaked the news of him going to Real, which forced them to 'fess up.

It'll certainly be a combustible relationship. Could be a masterstroke or a recipe for disaster. I don't know the circumstances but he seems to have faded a bit and didn't last long at Lille.

They have such a scattergun approach to the type of manager they want let alone the sheer volume.

Pep and Pochettino say Marcelo Bielsa is the best coach in the world. Will be interesting to see how the new 49ers results focused investment will be used. A fascinating season ahead in the championship that’s for sure.

They’ve recently bought into them, 10% stake but heard there’s some big joint commercial announcements also coming soon.

My money’s on them having another new manager before this season starts. Bielsa + Leeds =

It's worse than that - it's the fifth season they've started with a different manager from the one who started the previous season, but that doesn't include the managers they've appointed - and discarded - mid-season eg Heckingbottom.
Meanwhile, this is Bielsa's fourth club in four years.

With Biesla in charge, the guy Pep and Pochettino have called a legend and major influence on their careers, I suspect to see Leeds doing a Russia and be up there topping the charts in terms of distance covered and sprints per game. Should imagine we will see a surprisingly fit Leeds Utd team next season...

I read an article saying he was considered a tactical genius at one time (when Pep etc first met him, no doubt) but it also suggested that his string of recent failures may mean he's passed his sell-by date in the modern game.

The managers and coaches can come from Mars as far as I'm concerned. It's the influx of players that harms our game.
I keep reading about if England had a top-class creative midfielder... but we simply haven't got one!
