We won't win the title and tbh if we don't see slot as a future manager its the best time to get alonso in and he can have a free period.
But Alonso - He didn't do well at the easiest club of them all.
How will he be able to manage the most difficult club of them all?
Such a conundrum.

It's not a conundrum. He failed. He should take time to sort his head out to prepare for his next role wherever that is.

I really wouldn't call Madrid the easiest club to manage. It's a club controlled by a president with fickle fans and even more fickle players who throw their toys out the pram if the manager dare ask them to do something.

Your right, not many clubs fans want a manager out who delivered the title the season before after his first defeat of the season.

Madrid is not the easiest club to manage.

Madrid isn't the easiest club to managed and we aren't the most difficult. I would say that we are easier than RM tbh. Our fans are generally more patient and our board doesn't interfere with every single decision the manager makes.

One of the interesting things for me is : will we retain the strategy of employing a head coach, rather than a manager and, if so, how will that impact the decision of the candidate (or candidates) offered the job.
Heresay has it that Hughes and Slot didn't see eye to eye over the transfers which are controlled by Hughes. If the stories have an element of truth is it likely that a future incumbent would want more of the Klopp manager role and what does that mean for Hughes's future at the club.

Madrid is a notoriously difficult club to manage. Alonso was doing a much better job this season than Slot is and still got the boot.

He failed by being 2nd and 4 points behind the leaders with 19 games left? Well if that's the case Slot has definitely failed and should be relieved of his duties as well.
