If it does, it does.

Ancelotti.

Far too old

Chicken or egg.

Verdict or the contract decision?

I honestly don't think they are related. Just my own take.

 

[Keeper!]

Anyone still think this goes beyond the break?

For me if it does he won't be staying, why delay any further?

Unless this is one of Pep's motivational master strokes

Source mate?

Surely it has to be Pesto for Carlo!

I reckon a 2 year extension but he'll leave after 1 year. Announced right at the end of the next season. Avoids playing under a cloud all year.

Assuming this is from when Ancelotti was asked recently what would make him retire. He replied "if Madrid fire me."

Ancelotti.

No thanks we need a manager who will be here for longterm and Carlo didn't do great when he followed Pep at Bayern

Hmmm - I think they have to be - if only for the optics.

Get the book thrown at us - and he leaves, and his statements about staying more than ever and getting Dikov back look hollow.
Stay and he's got a hell of a task on, when he could still walk into a top job anywhere.
Get exonerated and he may leave as there are no leaving us in the lurch pressures to stay. Alternatively he could stay to have a clear run at things and to celebrate.

Anyone's guess.
