Was talking about this managerial change with some friends. IMO it of course looks weird statistics wise + how they have performed in the CL, but its clearly due to problems internally.
There are a lot of managers on the market right now; Nagelsmann, Pochettino, Enrique, and soon to be Conte I'm sure (as well as Zidane loitering as per). Its a good market to change coaches, Sp**s are very very fortunate (not that they have a chance with some of those names but a higher supply on the market is good for them).
With Ancelotti being linked with leaving Madrid this summer, Nagelsmann is naturally being linked. Some of my friends were saying that it would be a good move. Also because of the young players coming through at Real.
For me, I just don't see it. Nagelsmann in still a baby in managerial terms. He took a very very big job and it seems he has failed more so for his lack of experience in navigating a large club more than anything. Ral Madrid are that, on steroids. The fans, the expectation from the board, and the media. Yes Bayern's board are extremely stubborn traditional Bavarian German men who are constantly at odds but still. He failed this test and he is not ready for Madrid. It would be a large gamble on both sides.
For me, Naglesmann at this moment in time is a Chelsea, Inter, Juventus, Athletico Madrid level manager. Those are the kind of clubs he should be going to, as he just skipped a level and went to the top tier.
He shouldn't be rushing, if I was Chelsea I would be strongly strongly considering bringing him in... he's such an immediate fit there it is kind of scary. Has worked with the likes of Nkunku before, and the style of players + young dressing room would be a much better fit. He would have a blank canvas there.
I am sure Sp**s will be getting on their hands and knees, would have been attractive a few years ago but no one seems to lift them out of mediocrity. Even the man who took them to the CL final Poch and a serial winner in Conte.
