Derbados Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 What did Mel see in Clement to give him so much in way of backing?? to give him the transfer funds he did and to compare him to our own Alex Ferguson he must have charmed the absolute pants off him Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Olton Ram Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Putting out the cones at Real Madrid was and always will be the highlight of his career. He has less and less credibility with every sacking. Should have stuck to just coaching and following Ancelloti around. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not like Clement is Bertie Big Balls, so I can't imagine he owns 12 supercars & and 5 bed penthouse on Mayfair, so surely he's earnt a couple of mil through pay offs to jack it in?

Finch Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 Allegedly Sam Rush’s call. His football management skills are on a par to Milli Vanilli’s music ability. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tyler Durden Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Despite all the pointed remarks about Clement we were still 5th in the table when he was sacked by MM for whatever reason. If he hadn't have come in we would never had coined the phrase the Derby way, consider that too. I do agree that Morris was swayed by the fact that he coached Real Madrid and did give him a boat load of cash for players so maybe MMs professional judgement also needs to be queried here. Anyway I sincerely wish him well on whatever endeavours he wishes to try now, I think that he's grasped that football management is probably a bridge too far for him without seeming to be unkind.

Day Posted February 2, 2021 Share Posted February 2, 2021 Listened to that George Thorne podcast last night, just the 2nd part. Was left a little confused, on one hand it sounded like he enjoyed the training under Clement but was laughing at how he wanted us to play like Real Madrid in the Championship with the players we had, asking the full backs to be where the wingers would and moving centre midfielders into full back to cover. Then he seemed miffed that he was sacked. 4 clubs, 4 sackings, 42.4%, 34.1%, 23.3%, 28% win ratios, would be very surprised if he lands another managers job. Sounds like he's been spoilt by working with big name players, trying to translate what he helped them with doing into divisions way below that level. Worked his way out of any chance of a top job where his methods might work, needs to land himself a job under Ancelotti again and rebuild his coaching career, forget the management side.

Can't see him taking on Big Dunc - well, not if he's any sense. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
