The Sack Race aka Official Management Carousel Thread

Conte has been sacked... it’s been fun and I feel bad for him. However, too many times he has clashed with the board and ran to complain to the media.

The other issue with him is that there's like two jobs that he would actually take that would have him in the next few years. PSG and Portugal (and maybe some other nations too). Chelsea & Madrid get weird sometimes if things aren't going great, so I guess you shouldn't rule them out completely.

Man U holding their nose and giving him essentially a blank check will keep him there longer than usual because they were in a pretty desperate situation by their standards, and he has them back in the CL spots.

So, where does Conte land? Anywhere expected or rumored?

I think he will take some time off.

I definitely could see him at Bayern or Real Madrid next season, as I don't think either Kovac or Lopetegui will last long. Lopetegui might not even last the full season, he is really not a very good coach.

Other than that, not too many clubs are a good fit for him. Maybe Atletico if Simeone ever left. Inter would be a good fit as well, but I'm not sure how that would go down with him being both a Juve player and manager.

I could also see one of OL/OM taking a shot at him, with Neymar in the league and the profile getting bigger maybe one of those two takes a chance and tries to make a jump up.

He should take some time off and wait until Mancini gets canned by Italy and go back there. His style is the antithesis of Italian national footy.

I don't think Real would take him but they did take Mou so who knows. Like Bret said, Chelsea and Real do some strange things when they get desperate. If he went to Bayern and they thought Pep was a task master just wait until Conte gets there.

Sounds like Thierry Henry is set to become the manager of Aston Villa.

The bookies are tipping Zidane to take over United.

That wouldn't be a good appointment I don't think.

He's a great manager, but part of his success at Real Madrid was that he and Perez were always on the same page. He won't get that at United.
