| Carlo Ancelotti back as Real Madrid's coach. | |
| Zidane had resigned claiming a lack of support and faith in him | |
| by the club: | |

| His record: | |
| https://en.as.com/en/2021/05/27/football/1622123140_379068.html | |
| Real went trophyless this season. | |
| Where to next after some time off? Coach of France (Didier | |
| Deschamps hangs in there) or one of its clubs? | |
| The real test is what one can do with a middling club, one that | |
| doesn't have a bunch of superstars, like the coaches do at | |
| Leicester, for example, winning an FA Cup or the EPL title. | |

| This much minus 10%: | |
| Sergio Ramos earns �338,000 per week, �17,576,000 per year | |
| playing for R. Madrid as a D (C). Sergio Ramos's net worth is | |
| �122,668,000. Sergio Ramos is 34 years old and was born in | |
| Spain. His current contract expires June 30, 2021.: | |
| https://salarysport.com/football/player/sergio-ramos/ | |
| I think that Ramos hurt himself in part by stating a couple of | |
| times his wish to leave and then assuming he'd be treated with | |
| "white gloves" because of his legacy with the club. Monetarily, | |
| I don't feel too bad for entertainers making that sort of money. | |
| Yes, injuries and rarely death in sport, but they're not | |
| front-line workers in ICUs who make a lot less. | |

| [/quote]How did this all start? I can remember two or three | |
| times hearing on the BBC about the brewing problem, but I never | |
| caught what Ramos' issue was originally. I see from the site | |
| you gave us that his pay went down; but didn't everyone's? | |
| Isn't he still making more money than he can spend? And when I | |
| heard that he was interested in moving to another European club, | |
| that suggested that money wasn't the issue -- unless he's hoping | |
| for a deal with PSG like Neymar's. I doubt that. I didn't | |
| think it was money. | |
| Then I wondered who his agent was. Looking for that, I found a | |
| story that quoted his former agent. | |
| https://www.football-espana.net/2021/06/19/sergio-ramos-former-agent-speak-out-… | |
| Many have spoken and written about Sergio and Rene Ramos in | |
| these past few days, ever since the former�s departure from Real | |
| Madrid was made official after 16 years at the club. Now, | |
| according to Marca, a former representative of Sergio�s has | |
| spoken out against the pair. | |
| Pedro Bravo was the man who brokered the deal back in the summer | |
| of 2005 that saw Ramos leave Sevilla for Madrid for a fee of | |
| �27m, right at the end of the transfer window. Now president of | |
| a Spanish association dedicated to football agents, he didn�t | |
| hold his tongue when criticising the conduct of the Ramos | |
| brothers. | |
| �He who brought Sergio Ramos to Real Madrid 16 years ago would | |
| never have allowed him to leave as he has, because there would | |
| have never been so much tension in the negotiations nor | |
| blackmails, leaks or accidental expiration,� he wrote on | |
| Twitter. �There would have been dialogue and professionalism. | |
| Real Madrid aren�t to be ignored!� | |
| The chief issue of the negotiations was the format of the | |
| contract. Ramos wanted a multi-year option, while Madrid wanted | |
| to give him the single-year deal they felt a 35-year-old | |
| merited. Ramos ultimately caved after a long standoff and | |
| accepted the one-year deal, only for Madrid to reveal it had | |
| been taken off the table; they had put an expiration date on it, | |
| and the Ramos brothers had either not noticed it or ignored it. | |
| It doesn't make sense to me to think he really wanted to leave. | |
| If he wanted a multi-year contract, that meant he wanted to play | |
| at Real Madrid for several more years. | |
| I also don't see why he and his brother wouldn't have seen why | |
| the club was reluctant to sign a longer term contract. He is | |
| not elderly, but he's getting up there when age becomes a | |
| factor. | |

| I put it all down to gamesmanship. Ramos has been around long | |
| enough to see how Real operates with its hiring and firing of | |
| coaches let alone players. He had the prime example of a | |
| discontented Zidane who left on poor terms the second go-round. | |
| It appears to be a clash of big egos and there can only be one | |
| alpha apparently. We'll see what the Madridistas bring to the | |
| stadium about it come the new season (August). | |
| Ya, 35, but athletes these days manage. Zlatan's still playing | |
| for top clubs at what, 39? Buffon, now with Parma in Serie A, is | |
| 43. Cristiano's 36. | |
| Athletes appear to be fitter now than in the "old days" where | |
| many smoked, went out for many beers with teammates after | |
| matches, partied, etc, etc.. Now it's all about nutrition, | |
| working out, sports medicine, etc.. All that other stuff's left | |
| for the fans now mostly, hic :). | |

| Well, they went into Goliath's Santiago Bernabeu and came out | |

| Well, Real did it! | |
| Down 1 - 0 on aggregate to PSG, they stormed back in the 2nd leg | |
| of their UEFA Champions League contest with a treble by Kerim | |
| Benzema to win 3 - 2 and knock PSG out of the contest. All of | |
| Benzema's goals were scored in the second 45'. Amazing. Job done | |
| at the Bernabeu. This club has always played with heart in this | |
| league. | |
| They find a way to win in this league with their experience and | |
| skills. The winningest club in its history. | |
| I don't feel sorry for PSG. They are loaded with top players for | |
| which they pay a fortune. Messi left his heart in Barcelona, | |
| Neymar underperformed. Mbappe was the best by far out there for | |
| them and I hear he wants to play for Real next. Neither am I too | |
| sorry for Mauricio Pochettino who won nothing at Tottenham and | |
| for some reason fell into this job. | |
| PSG were in this contest's semifinal and final on two separate | |
| occasions and couldn't win. Here they're knocked out of the | |
| Round of 16 this time with a clawback win by their opponents. | |
| I feel sorry for Marco Verratti. He tries so very hard in | |
| midfield. | |
| So now, who can stop Real? | |

| Ya, no excuses for Man City. Pep's been with them long enough. | |
| Time has come (today) :P. | |
| Their problem is handling a decent counter-attack as was clearly | |
| shown by what Spurs did to them by Son and Kane. Pep had no | |
| answer for it since the goals weren't going in for him even | |
| though Spurs' 5 at the back were being breached. Pep ought to | |
| have Chelsea's defence. | |
