well beckhams shot is better cause its much further away from missing..when theres no goalie the very middle of the goal is the by far best place to shoot

diego had less time tho, and that struck me as the difference in MSL and well, any good european league.. no way would beckham be allowed to aim for that long with guys on the other team jogging home normally.

And I dont think the most managers r doing this for the money.

?

Lot of managers r ex-footballers and they have money to retire and live very healthy life.
Also when u have shitloads of money, u can decide were u coach not just from how its paid... I mean 20mills vs 30mills, U might aswell consider the other aspects of the job...

fact is although it doesnt make much sense to me, many people choose a job that pays $15 million a year over $10 million even if the $10 million is slightly favourable in other aspects ;(

Those are two rather intelligent representatives of our species though. Matter of fact, the mere existence of the word 'billionaire' proves Drone's point.
If people were satisfied once they had a couple of millions we would have a lot less poverty in the world. Sadly people don't want to be rich, they want to be richer than others. And that's why people dream of being the coach of Chelsea. :/

I say, most high-level managers do it for love for the game, not for the money, both of us dont have any proofs, so GG.

well if you want to make a bet regarding whether chelsea manages to hire a world class manager or not im down for it.. of course defining "world class manager" isnt necessarily that easy but well, im sure whomever ends up coaching chelsea next season will be significantly more famous and merited than avram grant..

Can't believe Sven took Mexico job. 0_o

Also Jose to Inter, Rijkard to Chelsea imo. I personally think Mark Hughes would be a better coach than Rijkard at Chelsea, but meh.

Good manager can make good results with 'bad team', like Rehagel with Greece. Bad manager can make bad results with good team, like Rjikaard this season(some guys say the man behind Rjikaard success was Ten Cate, he made the tactics etc).

hm i dont see a big difference with this season with the other succesfull seasons. He's tactics were pretty similar as i see it, but he can't force players if they dont want to play good in the field.
Other reason why this season sucked for barcelona may be all te injuries (Messi, Henry, Ronaldinho, Deco, etc) the players are much responsible than the manager
