Del Bosque was like the senior accountant in a company who's been there since he left school. Quiet, unassuming, competent, and respected by everyone who worked with him. Boring? Perhaps? Reliable and exceptionable? Absolutely.
It wasnt though, he foumbled a 10 point lead in the league and lost the cup. The games under Nagelsmann do have very similar problems as under Tuchel though.
Nah Carlo's dismissal at Juve was justified. Won no silverware (Intertoto doesn't count), choked the league in the last match against Perugia in 2000 and choked it again the next year against Roma despite being 2-0 up in their last h2h encounter played at the Stadio Olimpico. Add onto this a CL group stage exit with embarassing losses to Panathinaikos and Hamburg, also including a 4-1 thrashing in the UEFA Cup at the hands of Celta de Vigo. His dismissal made sense then and it makes sense now.
Bobby Robson being sacked was the worst decision in Newcastles premier league History. The bloke came in when they were bottom. There teams confidence was shot to bits. He guided them away from relegation and led them to 3 European positions on very limited funds by the owners. The owners thinking they were again part of the elite began taking over. Signing players without Robsons consent and selling players like Gary Speed who Robson didn’t want to sell. They began making the decisions, the players became overpaid brats. Then they said the old man has done enough let’s get rid. But to rub salt in the wounds they signed f*king Graeme Souness. He fell out with every top star at Blackburn and they were battling relegation and had fought relegation the season before. Not only that. They give him more money than Robson received over 5 years in one season and he spent it on injury prone players or flops. He guided the magpies from 4th,3rd and 5th to 14th. There was no logic begging it what so ever.
I agree that the timing of that was a shocker lol. But I think it was ultimately the right decision giving the style of football they played and other issues.
I think his sacking at Roma was harsh. Yes, they were 9th place, but 4 points behind a UCL spot. Also, considering Roma had a lot of injuries, too. It was more unfortunate than anything. Let the man finish the season.
A few others off the top of my head: Bobby Robson 2004. They were literally like a top 6 side and they sacked him for Sounness! Club went into freefall after him. I also think Sam Allardyce being sacked by Newcastle was harsh. I think this was where Mike Ashley lost control of Newcastle by listening to the fans. I actually rate Sam and was a very good defensive manager like Mourinho. The problems at Newcastle were just enormous and they got relegated under Shearer after. They were never going to be a top 4 side and having the man of glass, Owen, didnt help.
Football fans hate watching Allardyce’s football though. Fans shouldn’t have to pay to watch that shit. I think people assume football is all about results, but it isn’t. Look at Postecoglu, he can have shit runs of form and people forgive. Mourinho types; they can win trophy after trophy and people will still turn after 3 losses on the spin because he’s a depressing bellend. Allardyce makes football unenjoyable and doesn’t even win things so he can never complain about getting the sack, regardless of other issues.
The fact it’s so true. I was doing a career mode in FIFA 23 with Newcastle and some shit and I won the league. The next season they expect me TO WIN THE FUCKING CHAMPIONS LEAGUE. And even if I won they wanted me to win it again but if I did not even lose in the final k get sacked.
Agreed. Perez is a moron. It is absolutely possible he fired Del Bosque for not being handsome enough. Forget the trophies, he wanted the manager to have more star appeal.
Del Bosque getting sacked was and still is truly stupid from Perez. After winning La Liga in 2003 he got the boot for no reason and that started a horrible trend of Madrid going into mediocrity and disillusionment in the Champions League. Plus he sold key players like Hierro and Makelele to accommodate Beckham and Owen and the Galaticos went up in smoke. Just imagine if Del Bosque remained and Perez built a well balanced squad instead of buying shirt sellers like Beckham then Madrid would dominate Europe for many years to come including winning the treble along the way. Instead, Barcelona achieved that feat and not Madrid while Del Bosque dominated the world with Spain.
As a Leeds fan, the Bielsa sacking was criminal and heartbreaking. I knew it at the time. He dragged a midtable Championship team exiled from the PL for 16 years to a title challenge in the 1st year and promotion in the 2nd. Finished 9th in his first PL season. All the while playing the most outlandish, ambitious football in the country, his players running themselves to death every game, transforming journeymen into stars, getting 17 PL goals out of Patrick Bamford. And, in his 4th season, performing miracles with a tiny squad besieged by injuries, having 12 senior players for most games, keeping us out of the relegation zone and on course for survival. All the while still playing the same brand of entirely unique, and uniquely entertaining, football. Hitting the woodwork about 18 times, having a 21 year old GK who was a hologram (with the worsts shot stopping stats in the league) on top of everything else. And conducting himself like a Saint, uniquely loyal (would have never left for another job, he never has, except to manage Argentina), never once complaining about injuries or a refereeing decision or transfers or the state of his squad, taking all the responsibility on his own shoulders. Stabbed in the back with 12 games remaining, and the club briefing a mess of propaganda about him to the press (all of which has since been disproved, despite Bielsa never saying a word in response). Meanwhile, the owner was in the process of selling the club and bidding for another club as we were being relegated, and putting up our stadium as collateral. As for O'Leary. It's complicated. He failed to get in the CL 2-3 seasons in a row (it was only 3 places back then). Which is why we went bankrupt, basically. Ridsdale gambled on us getting into the CL. O'Leary also did stupid things like releasing an autobiography that pissed off some of the players.
I love this. The media were always scoffing at Bielsa because Leeds conceded goals. Real football fans understand why Bielsa is so popular. He is a total antidote to the Puels, Mourinhos, Pulises, Allardyces, Moyeses, Rodgerses, etc. He actually likes football. I would love to have him at my club because it would make me actually want to see a game again. Football has become dire and soulless from a spectator point of view.
Yeah, and it was even a myth that his teams conceded goals. We had the best defence in the Championship when we got promoted and the ~4th best in his first year. We had the best, or second best, defence in the PL in the last third of our first season, when we got our players fit, and Bielsa tweaked things by putting Dallas as an 8 to balance the midfield better. And even in our last season, we conceded a goal per game when Kalvin Phillips was fit. We only conceded goals against top sides when we had key players missing. Sorry, defending him is an addiction of mine lol. British pundits are atrocious. They're xenophobic and hate attacking, high risk football or playing out from the back. And they don't even watch games outside the top 6, so base their opinions on lower down teams on their games vs the top 6, which are unrepresentative. They legitimately spout crap about Bielsa such as "what has he won?", "I don't get it", "naive", blah blah blah. While lauding all the British dinosaurs like Moyes, Fat Sam, Hodgson, Warnock, Pulis etc, who have won almost nothing between them. Not even tinpot cups. @@keithwellerlounge74
You forgot he lost both the Intercontinental Cup and the European Supercup after his second season. Of course it doesn’t justify his sacking, which happened well after.
They're official titles, so they count. If Del Bosque is getting heat for not winning the Copa Del Rey, then yes he should get heat for not winning the UEFA Super Cup and the Intercontinental Cup. You're the European champions. They should beat the remaining competitors.
Juanfran after saving Lugo from relegation. Brought on in the leagues final 5 matches. Lugo needed 5 wins... something they weren't able to do since Quique Setien was the coach... 5 wins and a final dedication from Maradona himself to the team on their final matchday. Next season started very rough, no reinforcements, sacked after the 5th matchday.
A lot of credit that should go to Leicester’s title miracle should be Nigel Pearson managing to get Leicester from bottom of the table to 14th at the end of the season; winning 7 out of their last 9 games. That run of form, going into the next season, was the catalyst for their title win.
As soon as I saw this video title, I knew it would be Del Bosque. 20 odd years later and so many other examples since, yet this remains the stupidest, most undeserved sacking of all time. Even with the galacticos, I never really felt they were as tight a unit as they were with him in charge
Xavi Hernandez 1st Season (8Nov21- season end) - Took 9th placed Barca to finish as runners up , Took them to UEL Quarter Finals , Won against Real Madrid 4-0 at Bernabeu 2nd Season - Made Barcelona La Liga champions, Supercopa Triumph against Real Madrid. 3rd Season - Lost half of his season due to fitness and injury issues of his squad and leaving in June 😢 I think it is undeserving to Sack Xavi because he won 2 trophies in his first full season there.
I’d give O’Leary a bit of credit. That Leeds team he had in the early 2000’s was one of the most loved teams in the league mostly because of how young the players were and everyone just assumed they’d all end up superstars. They really were that team that hoovered up all the young talent in the PL and championship so people really got behind them me included. Then O’Leary left and not long after all the players left and not long after that the majority of those players weren’t getting up to a whole lot 🤷♂️ only Ferdinand and Keane you could legit say lived up to their potential. You can go down the list and say Paul Robinson bang average, Ian Harte bang average, Danny Mills, mid table player, Woodgate may have become a great player if not for his injuries but still never lived up to his potential. Bowyer mid table player, McPhail championship player, Seth Johnson same, Kewell bang average but had injuries, Bakke bang average, Smith had injuries but he was destined to be a bench player for United. Even Viduka spent his late 20’s in a bang average Middlesbrough side and wasn’t setting the league on fire. So people need to look back and say O’Leary massively overachieved with that team and give him more credit.
Definitely, it goes down as a great era for Leeds, and a very harsh sacking. I used him and the other managers at the beginning as examples to show that you could see SOME logic behind their dismissal, whereas with del Bosque I can't. I for sure give him credit, in fact I might do a full vid about his time at Leeds.
@@flashbackfootball1367 for me as a teenager in the late 90’s/early 00’s you had Leeds and a couple of years earlier West Ham as the “what if? teams” because they had a bunch of young guys and then they lost them all very quickly. But at least in West Ham’s case you can argue that practically all of their young guys delivered away from West Ham. Cole and Lampard spent the majority of their careers at Chelsea, Carrick and Rio won a tonne of trophies at United, Defoe is a Spurs legend and Glen Johnson played for Chelsea and Liverpool. They all did better away from West Ham but for the most part, the guys who left Leeds in their early 20’s never really got better elsewhere.
O'Leary wasn't sacked on results, he was just too expensive for Leeds. He required signing many expensive players, which bankrupted Leeds. They had a fire sale of players and the club had to be sold. They haven't recovered since...
I had the amazing opportunity to meet Del Bosque after a football camp in Spain, where I live. Such a great and legendary manager, shame he got sacked…
Well TikTok is the devil as far as I'm concerned, but It might be worth experimenting with shorts I have nothing to lose I guess! Glad you're enjoying the videos 😁
Claudio Ranieri at Chelsea. Most undeserved sacking I've ever seen. Got them 4th place, CL spot for the first time in club's history and got sacked just because they wanted a CL winner manager Jose Mourinho.
I clicked on the video while knowing for a fact this video is about Vincent del bosque what a coach he is Underrated coach top 5 oat imo no-one talks about him when they talk about the galacticos era of madrid in the early 2000's and no-one talks about him when you open up the conversation of spain's golden era One more time... He is an underrated manager maybe the most
Beckham transcended the sport?? I must have missed that 🤣🤣 maybe in the UK... But anyway, good video, and I'd probably add Ancelotti's first spell at Madrid too...winning la decima...and getting the boot a year later after finishing second in la liga with 92 points...harsh.
Did a whole video on Redknapp at Spurs th-cam.com/video/Y9k4NXRCL_Q/w-d-xo.html I agree it was harsh, but think that whole saga with 'Arry eyeing the England job is what annoyed Levy.
@@flashbackfootball1367 I dont think that was the reason he sacked him. He seemed to wait until after Spurs failed to qualify for CL because of Chelsea winning the CL to do so. This is the chairman who sacked Mourinho before a final.

But anyway, good video, and I'd probably add Ancelotti's first spell at Madrid too...winning la decima...and getting the boot a year later after finishing second in la liga with 92 points...harsh.
I mean like, by becoming a Global Icon, who was loved by people who didn't even really like football. Maybe transcended is the wrong word lol
@@flashbackfootball1367 ah yes I see what you mean, he became a celebrity, where he was known even outside of the sport. I grant you that one 😅
@@aldobonaso3481even a blind man could see that was what he meant.
Harry Redknapp.
Did a whole video on Redknapp at Spurs th-cam.com/video/Y9k4NXRCL_Q/w-d-xo.html
I agree it was harsh, but think that whole saga with 'Arry eyeing the England job is what annoyed Levy.
@@flashbackfootball1367 I dont think that was the reason he sacked him. He seemed to wait until after Spurs failed to qualify for CL because of Chelsea winning the CL to do so. This is the chairman who sacked Mourinho before a final.
Spurs and Mourinho?
Thomas Tuchel
3/4 were Italians lol
man its funny with english fans. even when you wanna talk outside pl you still have to give countless examples about pl... no wonder english national squad achieved so little with so much talent...
