so casillas' old coach gets the job at madrid? thats kinda weird considering how short his tenure was... like, didnt they want someone with more experience or something? 
anyway, becks is linked to the permanent gig which is pretty cool i guess. Klopp's name has come up before in these situations tho, always gets linked with big jobs... 
but whats wrong with jimenez? dont get me wrong, hes a decent coach and all, but seems like they were just looking for someone cheap or easy since casillas left... 
so zidane's done and dusted at real madrid ... i think it's crazy they're already looking for his replacement, you'd think they'd want someone to stabilize the team first? but hey, miguels been around so he knows what to expect, right?
and jurgens getting linked again is wild, dude. i get why red bull salzburg would want him back but hasn't he got bigger fish to fry in germany now? i guess you can never have too much of a good thing or something
... anyway, gotta see how casillas' old coach does his thing first before making any big decisions.
one thing that does interest me is what's going on with the players at real madrid, they were so dominant under zidane but now they're just mediocre. maybe this change will be the wake-up call they need or maybe it's a sign of bigger issues... we'll see!

. maybe this change will be the wake-up call they need or maybe it's a sign of bigger issues... we'll see! Man, I'm like totally stoked about the new direction Real Madrid is taking under this caretaker manager, Miguel Ángel Jiménez . I know some people might be like "what's going on? Zidane just left" but let's be real, he was getting a bit old-school and not exactly innovating like they need to in order to stay on top of their game 
.
I mean, think about it, Real Madrid is one of the most iconic clubs in the world, and you've got this guy Miguel Ángel Jiménez coming in and taking over? That's gotta be some serious confidence boost for the squad. And let's not forget, they're actually considering Jurgen Klopp for the permanent job? That would be insane
! I can already imagine him bringing his high-intensity press defense to the Bernabéu and totally flipping the script on their opponents.
But you know what's even more interesting? The way this whole thing is unfolding. It's like, what does Real Madrid want to achieve with this new caretaker manager? Are they trying to shake things up or just get some stability before finding a permanent replacement? Either way, it's gonna be wild watching from the sidelines.

.I mean, can't believe Real Madrid is changing managers again 
like every 2 years or so . First it's Zidane, now Casillas' old coach, I think his name is Jimenez... sounds like some Spanish soap opera character 
. And who comes to mind when they're thinking of Jurgen Klopp for the permanent job? Red Bull Salzburg? That's a joke right? He's got a long-term contract with them and he's still trying to build that team, why would Real Madrid want to pull him away now? They must be having a laugh... I guess only time will tell if Jimenez can do better than Zidane or if they'll realize they made a mistake in the next 6 months

I guess only time will tell if Jimenez can do better than Zidane or if they'll realize they made a mistake in the next 6 months .I'm not sure about this one... I mean, I've seen some weird managerial transfers in my time, but this one's got me scratching my head. David Beckham's former team-mate as caretaker? That doesn't sound like a strong contender to me. I think the club should be looking for someone with more experience in management, not just because of their connection to the team.
And what about Jürgen Klopp? Red Bull Salzburg is his job now, isn't it? I'm pretty sure he's tied down there until 2026 or so. I don't see how they can consider him for Real Madrid right now. It just seems like a bit of a long shot to me.
I do think the club needs someone who can inspire the team and bring some much-needed creativity back into their play. Maybe they should be looking at coaches from other teams, rather than just promoting someone from within?

Blud, can you believe what's happening at Real Madrid? One minute they're with Zidane and the next he's gone and they're stuck with some random manager who trained Iker Casillas' coach?! 
Miguel Ángel Jiménez? Never heard of him, mate! Sounds like a total dark horse. But you know what really got my goat? Jürgen Klopp is out of the running for the permanent job just because he's still tied down with Red Bull Salzburg! Can't they see how good he'd be at Real Madrid?! He's been dominating the Champions League with Liverpool and now they're letting him go for some junior coach who's only managed a few teams in Spain? Unbelievable, innit?!

Ugh, just heard about Zidane leaving Real Madrid... can't say I'm surprised tho lol 
. Been saying it for ages, they need someone new to whip them back into shape. Casillas' coach is a decent choice tho, seems like a solid option. But seriously, who does this say about the club? Can't even get the right guy to stay in charge for more than 6 months 
. And now they're considering Jurgen Klopp? Like, what's going on there? He's tied down with Red Bull Salzburg, shouldn't be available... unless he just wants out of there big time . Either way, this is not good for Real Madrid fans. Guess we'll just have to wait and see how it all plays out .

Guess we'll just have to wait and see how it all plays out .Man... Zidane leaving Real Madrid was like the end of an era 
. I mean, the guy won all those trophies and carried the team on his back for years. Now they're trying to find someone new to lead them, but it's hard to fill those shoes, you know? I don't love the idea of Casillas' old coach taking over, though - he's got some big shoes to fill, especially with Klopp being considered . That guy is a genius on the pitch, and Red Bull Salzburg doesn't stand a chance if they get him .
I'm all for giving the young guns a shot, but sometimes you just can't replicate success overnight. I think Real Madrid should take their time, see who's right for the job, rather than rushing into it like this 
. Still, only time will tell... and I'll be glued to my screen when the matches start

Still, only time will tell... and I'll be glued to my screen when the matches start .I'm not sure if I'm excited or disappointed about Zidane's departure . On one hand, he was an amazing manager and it's nice to see him move on from Real Madrid, but on the other hand, I think he had a great run there and it's weird that they're already looking for someone new 
. And what's with this caretaker thing? Can't they just give the guy a chance?
I mean, Iker Casillas' coach is cool and all, but I don't know if he's ready to take on a team like Real Madrid. They're like the giants of Spanish football or something! And then there's Jurgen Klopp... hmm, that's an interesting one . He's got an amazing record with Liverpool, but Red Bull Salzburg? That's not exactly top-tier competition, you know?
I guess we'll just have to wait and see how this all plays out. Maybe they'll surprise us and find the perfect manager . But until then, I'm gonna be over here like "what's going on with Real Madrid?"

But until then, I'm gonna be over here like "what's going on with Real Madrid?" so its like when u think about real madrid and ur all excited thinking zidane would come back or something, but nope, they gotta start fresh again. i mean, casillas coach? who's that even? sounds like a solid appointment tho, he's got experience working with iker casillas so should know what works for the team.but lets be real, the bigger question is when and if jurgen klopp leaves red bull salzburg. he's already making waves in europe and people think he's gonna leave soon. wouldnt that be a dream come true for real madrid fans tho? i mean, they need someone with his experience and track record of winning. it just makes sense that he'd wanna jump ship to a bigger club like real madrid.
u guys wont believe what happened w/ real madrid now... they just sacked zidane like he was nothing!!! 
i mean, he was doin so well too, led them to 3 champs in 4 yrs and they just throw him out like trash... 
what's the matter w/ them?! do they not know who zidane is?!anywayz, they appointed this miguel ángel jiménez guy as caretaker... i dont no anything about him but i guess he was coacho of icer casillas lol
. and btw, didnt they learn from the last time they appointed some youngun w/o experience?! but here's the thing... jurgen klopp is in the running for the permanent job despite havin a contract w/ red bull salzburg
! like, what are the odds?! do they really think he's gonna up and leave for real madrid after havin somethin so good in austria?! lol i think not...
