Rafa has a good reputation in Spain, from his time at Valencia.

La Liga relegation battle is getting interesting, think there's been 4 different teams in there so far this afternoon. Depor have come from 2 down at the Nou Camp.

Edit: Xavi just been substituted, slightly decent ovation...

Eibar went down

[Colly]

Depor stayed up.

[DavidMarrio]

Always had a soft spot for Deportivo. That team in the late 90s/early 00s was a good team.

Diego Tristan et al.

[Colly]

Fran and Valeron. I don't want to go full Lineker but they're kind of my Spanish team, my dad lives not far from Coruna. Also Colo.

[Matt]

I always liked them because we beat them 3-0 in the CL quarters and then they were never seen again. Sort of like us a round later

[Summers]

Ancelotti sacked.

[stokeriño]

Poor Carlo never gets treated right.

[Jimmy]

Real are the worst.

[DavidMarrio]

He'll go back to Milan I reckon.

[Roster Depth Sicko No. 2]

West Ham job is open

[Baddar]

No doubt Gold and Sullivan will try.

[Jimmy]

Outside chance of Liverpool if they get rid of Brendan?

[Arjen Robben]

Or City maybe.

[The Lusophone]

He's taking a year off and having back surgery. Can probably rule him out of any roles for next season.

[Szumi]

Yeah, if he was going anywhere, it'd be Milan. He already said he was going to have back surgery and be out a year.

[Lineker]

Lol, Madrid.

[Baddar]

It was inevitable. Failing to win the League or Champions League in the same season usually means you lose your job out there. There was even talk about them letting him go last season because he failed to win La Liga. This is the 3rd year in a row that they've missed out on the title.

[Lineker]

Schalke and di Matteo have parted company.
