Funny how Perez was ridiculed as an idiot for not trusting his coach, firing Del Bosque after the won the La Liga. But now when he gives Mou, whose CV justifies all the control he deserves, all the power, you're ridiculing him.Resignation
A bit surprised this finally happened although many had been speculating this marriage between Valdano & Mou was never going to work, from the beginning (I was in that camp too)
Valdano is too much of a class act to give any parting shots, like say Calderon would, but I would love to hear what he has to say about Mou - I bet it is juicy as all hell
Shame for RM, IMO...Valdano is a legend at the club & a class individual through & through...He has had great intentions with the club & wanted to instill continuity & structure where it had been lacking for many years...Problem isn't Valdano or a Sporting Director, in this case, the problem, apart from Mou, is Perez...He's learned nothing from either tenure as a President and ceded all control to Mou which is rather remarkable at a club like RM - they fire managers left & right (Including managers who have won CL, managers who even did better in La Liga than Mou - Pellegrini) and understand little about actual football
Perez is a business man and even that he made his billions at the expense of the Spanish people, tbh...He's not an innovator and is enamoured with money & I guess he believes Mou will be the one to help him cash in...But at what cost?...They've had scandals after scandals this season within La Liga - offending referees, the league & opposing managers...Not to mention the scandalous Clasicos of late...And then to kick to the curb a club legend in Valdano?...For a rent a manager in Mou?...He's sold his soul to the devil and will run to hide when he's ushered out as President eventually - but what will happen to the legacy of what they have done to Valdano?
Shameful really but we are talking about the circus that is the capital club
Valdano has failed to topple Barca's grip in the La Liga for 3 seasons now. Mou came the closes to beating you guys in his first try. Scandal or not, the choice was an easy one.
