They're cutting their nose off to spite their face, but I can understand them doing it like. Him and Real Madrid announcing it beforehand undermined the position of Spain manager.

Stupid decision.

 

Don't see what choice they were left with, can't remember a time in history when a manager announces he's leaving in the middle of the season or tournament and it doesn't end really badly.

 

The only stupidity here is the manager announcing he's leaving right before the tournament when that's the only thing he should be focused on.

 

 

he didnt though

He didn't even tell his current employers that he's got a new job, on the eve of the most important task in that job, despite getting a new contract and probably a wage rise a couple of months ago.

 

He's lucky he hasn't been fired into the sun.

Madrid announcing it is the same thing as he would obviously be involved in that

 

Just wait for the tournament to be over and you avoid this entire mess.

members of the squad (apparently unhappy for some reason) found out. It would have leaked anyway, they had no choice.. other than to sort it out ater the WC and go another month without a manager

If Real Madrid come calling, I don't think many would turn down that opportunity.

 

Yeah and then you wait for the tournament to be done to announce it.

 

This isn't exactly hard but instead you do something which casts a shadow over the tournament for the team.They literally had zero choice once the announcement was made.

It was going to be leaked.  It would had been worse if it got leaked in 3 days time after they've played Portugal.

Yeah, doubt they announced it just for laughs.

If anyone can do a last minute ad hoc job for Spain at the World Cup it would be Rafa.

 

I wouldn't be mad at him if he went to the World Cup and returned to us in pre-season.

 

He'd never do that though, he would see it as letting his squad down by focusing on someone else even if it was just one month in the off season

The Spanish FA should just relegate Real to the regional divisions would be incredible scenes making Ronaldo play in those leagues.

 

:serious:

The Robson situation was very much different. Robson acted with loyalty and honour in every job he had. He didn’t go behind England’s back. England had told him they weren’t renewing his contract so he secured another job. I know it looks similar but it’s really a lazy comparison

Madrid being utter detestable cunts shocker.

 

Spanish club sabotaging their own national team. Pretty extraordinary stuff man :lol:

It was gonna leak man. What else do you expect them to do?

 

Let it leak during the world cup then come out and say "yeah might have forgot to mention we signed him before the WC"
