This Manager Is Completely Insane

[@FieldMedic4077]

"They can take the ball home, I'll take the three points" is a fantastic quote.

[@forseti1654]

Sampaoli is a meme in Brazil because of how he ALWAYS asks for new signings no matter what happens. When he joined Flamengo the supporters were already saying "NECESITO REFUERZOS" lol

[@francomachiavello2070]

Also kind of a meme in Argentina😂

[@lucasmiller8286]

As a Marseille fan, we loved how crazy he was, it fit our club really well. And he knew how to motivate players; the problem at our club has often been that we have good players on paper, but who play like dogshit. He was what was needed to fix that, and lo and behold, we finished 2nd. Then he demanded iirc Coutinho and Griezmann or something to be added to the squad, and when the board told him "sorry bro we just ain't got that kind of money" he quit on the spot haha

[@lucagorosito3715]

​@@agustintrivino9365Nono, Chile won thanks to Sampaoli's tactics, as the players fit well within his system and Martino didn't know how to respond as he relied too hard on Messi. Sampaoli's hated in Chile due to how he handled his exit from the national team, not due to his play style.

The mourinho quote was actually VERY similar to Sampaoli. It was a running joke whenever Madrid would beat Barcelona back in that time (a total of 3-ish matches out of 12) all being pushed by the Spanish media

[@Queijo566]

He recently was managing one the biggest clubs in Brazil, Flamengo. And his time was extremely chaotic. One of his physical coaches actually punched one of the star players on the face and it became a big soap opera. Also his results were dismal. Definitely an overestimated coach in my opinion

The thing is, as a football fan, I kind of weirdly appreciate these weirdos in football. Most managers nowadays, and players, are so bland, so cold, so sterile, so politically correct and safe that I think it’s really hard to get any kind of a connection to them as a fan. That’s why Klopp is almost universally beloved, he wasn’t sterile, he wasn’t bland. We could do with a few more personalities… maybe just not like Sampaoli, or people with the personality of a chainsaw like Joey Barton

"never go full autistic". It just doesn't have the same ring to it.

[@Veaseify]

Alumni were the first great Argentinian football club, Sampaoli must have said 1891, not 1991. He means that nobody knew anything about football then, they made it up as they went along and thats how he works.

[@Albent]

He meant Alumni from Casilda, the city from where he is, and an amateur team where he started his career as a manager 30 years ago.

@@suddenlystarlitSeconded. It’s up there when in my life people have said that I don’t look autistic. It’s always phrased like it’s a compliment weirdly. Frankly I’d rather be like I am than the reverse. Unfortunately more people are like Sampaoli than society would like to admit.

[@bundesautobahn7]

@@thomasfrost3087 It's sad that people use autism to insult someone. I could be on the spectrum myself and it could explain my problems to socialise and all of that. So, while not clinically diagnosed, listening to all of that, when people use autism as an insult, it also triggers me.

@@bundesautobahn7 Seems longer to get diagnosed these days. A friend of mine went through a 2-3 year process I think that ended last year with her diagnosis. I was lucky that I had an observant Mother who wouldn’t let it go until I got an official diagnosis, when I was 8.

@@thomasfrost3087 My mother says in hindsight she would've had me evaluated for it. Problem was also that during the 1980s, the subject of autism was heavily stigmatised as well, not to mention that my father would've objected to such an evaluation if she had known.
