Porto sacked Del Neri!!

[Tommi]

I lost my patience with Canna after he screwed up so that Shevchenko scored in Euro Derby vs. Milan.

Quite funny that you´ve been one of his biggest accuser because of a mistake he didn´t even do.

I admire Zac for obvious reasons.

Obvious reasons? You haven´t seen Inter when he was the coach? Obvious reasons are then that you love him because he´s a Inter supporter?

Anyway, could anyone open a poll about what i asked before or is it too poor subject? It would be quite interesting to see who will see Inter matches during the season(s) and who will not.

 

[Mikkel]

I can't see the Serie A this season....(I can't afford it anymore, because I have just leaved home) Man it is expencive to live by you self.

And I only sow the start of last seasons campain (the 2 first month's) so I only sow Cuper and the early stage of Zac's domain.

But I can see the Champions League

 

[Gismo]

You can come to my house, Mikkel. And see Serie A.

And I´ll ignore that post, Don Tommi. Oh and why not have that poll Tommi requested?

I am certain that you would have already seen the thread before you even come across this reply.

But anyway, you wanted it, and YOU GOT IT!

Ciao,

It was both of them. :stuckup:

Denying the fact?

Porto named Victor Fernandez as new coach.

No idea who he is

No Cuper then

 

[Handoyo]

Victor Fernandez was Real Betis' coach. He's a very offensive coach, I heard.


Handyo

 

[Gismo]

He is not that offensive. Nor defensive in particular.

And Porto was lucky... They avoided Cuper. Good for them. :star:

 

[Handoyo]

They were unfortunate as they missed out on Zac, eh?

Ok I can't believe I'm reading this...

It's been reported on Gazzetta.it and here:
http://it.sports.yahoo.com/040812/8/2oyk.html

Portoguese magazine Visao published an article about Gigi Del Neri.

They report that the real reason why Del Neri was sacked is that he was a racist. They say that all the players excluded by him had one thing in common: they were black. They add that even in training Del Neri wasn't getting close to black players.

Well this is just surreal! First of all, even if I don't like Del Neri a lot, he always seemed a smart person, not the cave man that has been described in Visao.

Furthermore, one of his favourite players at Chievo was Luciano. He was the one who wanted him back at Chievo after Luciano's adventure at Inter ended.

I hope he will reply promptly to this terrible accusations.

 

[Handoyo]

Bollox! Are they blind? For I saw 2 black lightnings raiding from both of Chievo's flanks in their first season in Serie A!


Hand:frustrat:yo

 

[Gismo]

They were unfortunate as they missed out on Zac, eh?


Handyo

Well. I can´t say if they approached him or not. Or if he accepted or rejected. But Zac is one of the best coaches you can get.

Too bad you guys are too blindfolded to see that.

Too bad you guys are too blindfolded to see that.

Therefore, so many clubs are after him. So, was the case until Inter appointed him last season.

 

[Gismo]

So you think Zac is OK then, Prav?

So you think Zac is OK then, Prav?

Sacked Del Neri claims Porto afraid of change
Wed 18 Aug, 11:18 AM

LISBON (AFP) - Luigi Del Neri, sacked as FC Porto manager just two months after his appointment, claims he was shown the door because the Champions League winners were afraid of change.

The ex coach of Italian Serie A side Chievo was hired to replace Jose Mourinho in June but he barely had time to familiarise himself with his new surroundings before he was looking for a new job.

And the 53-year-old suggested fear of the unknown was behind his dismissal.

"I believe after the excellent results achieved over the past two years the club directors were afraid of change," Del Neri said.

He defended his intention to introduce a shake-up at Porto, saying that was the only course of action open to him after the departure of a host of key players and the arrival of a new manager.

"It was logical to suggest a new strategy of play. That's what I proposed to do but I wasn't given the chance to carry it out," the Italian said.

Portuguese champions Porto said they got rid of Del Neri and his training staff after an eight week trial period because of his "totally unsuitable training and tactical system".

But Del Neri, in comments reported in the Portuguese media on Wednesday, took issue with his former employers' explanation.

"What they say doesn't seem clear or consistent because I don't believe you can judge the work of a manager after such a short time."

He also described as "absurd" the suggestion that he had lost the confidence of his players.

"I've tried to come up with a theory, a valid reason for my dismissal, but I still can't find one," he added.

Porto were quick to find a replacement in Real Betis coach Victor Fernandez.
