He's clearly a good coach .. just not a magician. No coach is a magician.
It's back to that issue of how to quantify competence, but also recognising that sometimes the bridge is too big, if some clubs csn just turn to thr transfer market in a far bigger way.
It's an imperfect assessment and that means that it's nearly impossible to be reasoned with arguments.
It is an absolute fact that whilst Pochettino ensured the sum of the parts (at the time) were very good,he failed (for example) to do what Alonso did
On that basis Alonso must he seen as a good coach, and Leverkusen have not fallen off a cliff this year. Next season and if he stays there will provide a real test of how good he might be.
Probably a bit harsh. But the real test was going to be this season, backing it up. It's not like Bayern are suddenly amazing, they are far from it.
No, but the guy deserves immense credit for how he goes about his business.
You do wonder what he says to his players.
100%.
Bayern are in a Farmer's league and more than likely to fail to progress past the CL quarter-final stage.
I'd still take Xabi Alonso in a heartbeat
Forest will do well to finish in the top 4.
Either way I think they will struggle next season.

One loss all season. But yeah, he fluked it.
That bloody Woollich song , it’s not just because who’s singing it , if it were sung by Ayr Utd , but regardless it is so so bad , it’s actually embarrassing
Not even if they were called Magic Ian.
Partey shouldn't be playing , should be bloody locked up
Lovely goal by Gnabry to make it 2-1.
