Unnamed Trialist Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 50 minutes ago, Corazon said: As alluded to above, the contract extension for Conceicao was only valid under the President Pinto da Costa. Now that Villas-Boas has won, he can terminate Conceicao’s extension and bring in a new manager if he chooses. He may just keep Conceicao anyways. A few months back, Villa-Boas openly supported Conceiçao. I don't think he can continue to do so after this season, since the fans who voted him in are basically against the current coach and model. If they opt for a new coach (Mourinho is free, but I don't know who V-B supports), he'll likely assess the roster and give players a chance in pre-season. I am not so convinced a new coach would push Steph out. I see 28,000 club members voted. It is similar to the voting block at Sporting Lisbon. At Barça, last election, 110,000 club members voted.

Treppy2 Posted April 30 Share Posted April 30 (edited) Nobody will care about this except the rare geography nerd among us, but thanks to Eustaquio, I was able to enter the correct answer of “Porto” on my third guess of today’s Unzoomed quiz. Thanks, Stephen! Edited April 30 by Treppy2 costarg, Obinna, Canuckia and 3 others 2 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure if his agent is Jorge Mendes but it suggests he's getting his name out because he won't be re-hired. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And the supposition that his roster wasn't up to par this year. I was thinking, comparing, that Lille collapsing 2nd half last night has to especially hurt Fonseca's reputation, and he's another who might fall upwards regardless. narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In women's too, a lot of adjustments this year coming up. Maybe coaches got extensions over the duration of Covid and now, post-pandemic, the moves are happening? narduch 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I see they've hired Zubizaretta the legendary Barça keeper as the sporting director at Porto. He's very soft spoken and even keel, he was with Villa-Boas at Marseille. He does not tend to be partial, or histrionic, and I think Stephen will get his chance, in function of who they choose to coach them for next season.
