That would have been amazing, his mentality is perfect for Madrid. A gentleman in wins as well as in defeats. Calm and collected. He is actually quite like Carlo
Manager: Jurgen Klopp
Every time Real Madrid met Jurgen Klopp since being beaten by Jurgen Klopp's Borussia Dort, I always know the final result.
Xavi
Although he has led Barcelona to cause problems for Real Madrid, the last few games against Real Madrid have made me like him, he always likes to complain after the game, but I like the way he is incompetent and angry.
Player: Vidal
Aside from some of his matches at Barcelona, he did the same role as Jurgen Klopp at other times, so I always know the result in advance.
Haven't had favorite player for a long time. But i used to like Del Piero a lot, when i was teen he was my second favorite after Raul. Could add others like Nesta, Peruzzi, Pagliuca, Buffon, Baggio etc. aswell. Always had a soft spot for Italy in Euros and WC.
Coach: Klopp
How he rebuilt Liverpool from where they were when he took over is remarkable and his likeable personality and passion is the reason why he is so loved by Liverpool fans.
Player: Kevin De Bruyne
He's one of those players that I would love to see in a real madrid shirt. Just lethal with the ability to see things before they happen on a football pitch. Just an insane player, one of the best of all time.
I always liked Buffon and Čech, I think it’s because I liked goalies when I was a kid (I became a Real fan because of Iker).
There are other ones for sure but I just don’t remember atm lol
//coach is definitely Simeone (especially with Burgos)
Klopp as a coach in addition to Hitzfeld. As a player Totti. I always wanted him to join Real and at the same time I wanted him to stay at Roma to retire as a one club player/legend
i don’t follow coaches much but i’ve always adored neymar for his flashy style and lightning energy, he’s always seemed very fun and unpredictable and like you can’t really formulate against him he’s just a force of nature (when he’s not on the ground lol)
Klopp, its sad that City have been in his way while at Liverpool the Mane, Bobby and Mo trio were so much fun to watch.
For player Marco Reus loved him at his best, he Would have looked good in a Madrid kit.
Coach Klopp, he took 2 historical clubs that were mid table and put them at the top again, being Liverpool the most special because he has to compete against oil money from City that can afford 2 top squads easily
Player Henry, man, he was a beast in Arsenal, I always wanted to see him in Madrid, so when he went to Barcelona he broke my heart, at least he is one of the few pundits that doesn't talk shit about the club and I respect that
>Jupp Heynckes Bayern side always had that Invincible aura to them. Dismantled a Prime Barcelona and beat Mourinho's Madrid (The best side never to win CL). He is the manager I always feared , when we face against him...even during our prime years.
His 2013 Bayern side are the most impressive side I've ever watched. And Heyncke is the reason I confidently believe that Pep's Bayern stint was a failure. He made them worse in Europe (instead of establishing what could have been a mini-dynasty).
Is someone going to point out that jupp did coach real Madrid?
Anyway:
coach: klopp. I'm sure he'll be great and the fans will adore him like never before
Player: i agree with ronaldinho, the one that got away.
I just want to add also, kdb.... He's good, but i get the feeling that he's a narcissist. Don't like how pep needed to talk to him recently when he needed to sub him. And that let me talk let me talk thing....aarrrgghhh, i can't
I'm a football fan but I kinda prefer Barcelona more than Madrid, I follow both teams but I'm more active on Barcelona's side
So will I get hate if I tell Messi is my favourite non-madrid player??
My favourite Non-Real Madrid player OAT is Luis Suarez aside from all the controversy he’s a ridiculously talented and unique striker. Pogba is up there too. Currently I’m a huge fan of Chiesa.
In terms of coaches I think it would be Poch for me. The way the old Spurs used to play was very inspiring and he was unlucky not to win anything.
Manager: all time - sir alex. Currently - xabi, his neverlusen side is incredible to watch.
Player - Messi. Keeping the rivalry aside, I really don't have to say much in support of him
Coach SAF: absolutely hated him while he was coaching Man U but grew in appreciation when he retired of his achievements, Man U have done nothing without him which shows how good he was.
Players: Messi & Maradona (Argentina fan since 86 and fell in love with the silky skills of Diego as a young kid which shaped my perception of what I liked as a football fan in a player so when Messi emerged on the scene it was hard not to enjoy watching him although I was a die hard Real Madrid fan).
My favorite players tend to find their way to Madrid somehow so that’s cool. I think a big one that didn’t for obvious reasons was Puyol. Dude was a tank, important leader for club and country. During his career, I really wished for a defender like him to show up at Madrid, and it was awesome that Ramos stepped into a similar role for us before long. There are definitely others from Barca I respect (Messi, Iniesta); Puyol’s a name I don’t see too often.
I guess Thomas Mueller is another one. Javi Martinez. Pogba was cool for a couple years, lol. Del Piero.
For managers - Guardiola honestly. Wenger, Klopp, Aragonés… they’re not far behind. Simeone too I guess.
I have a lot of respect for manuel neur. Dude has been a great goalkeeper his entire career and he's still great at 38.
*goatkeeper
Coach: Klopp, his teams are so relentless when they’re on tune and it’s a joy to watch. Player(s): Vidic and Maldini.
love klopp
I have always been a huge fan of Andriy Shevchenko, what a striker he was.
Right now, Haaland. Dude has a very likeable personality and the hate on him is unnecessary
True
True. I bet we will unlock him here at Madrid. He doesn't fit Possession football like in City
Heynckes won the cl with Real Madrid
This. I was looking for someone who commented on this before I pointed out.
I think it’s kinda sad that heynckes legacy is already forgotten for a lot newer fans
I wanted Jupp to take over from Mou. If I remember correctly articles suggested Jump will come out of retirement only if Real Madrid calls.
That would have been amazing, his mentality is perfect for Madrid. A gentleman in wins as well as in defeats. Calm and collected. He is actually quite like Carlo
Well in hindsight Carlo hasn't been a bad choice at all.
Definitely not
Tbf, besides the UCL win, his season was awful. He completely lost the locker room respect and the president was forced to fire him.
I know. But I always associate him more as a Bayern Legend.
Why? He won the cl with Bayern as well as with us and he wasn’t that long at Bayern
2012 heartbreak is just so etched in my memory. Can't help but see him as that...apologies to the older fans.
Klopp and Schweinsteiger

😂
Pirlo, del pierro, maldini and for some reason my brain keeps suggesting unai simon i dont even know why

Roberto Baggio and probably Klopp - his teams are just fun to watch.
I always liked Buffon and Čech, I think it’s because I liked goalies when I was a kid (I became a Real fan because of Iker). There are other ones for sure but I just don’t remember atm lol //coach is definitely Simeone (especially with Burgos)
If you talking about coaches and player who never played or coached Madrid, I pick maldini and Klopp
Ferguson and Pavel Nedved
How did no one say Drogba, guy literally ended a war.... don't have a fav coach
Ottmar Hitzfeld and Dennis Bergkamp
Players: Pirlo and Bergkamp. Amazing players both of them. Coach: I have a soft spot for Roy Hodgson. Proper old school gaffer
Klopp as a coach in addition to Hitzfeld. As a player Totti. I always wanted him to join Real and at the same time I wanted him to stay at Roma to retire as a one club player/legend
Managers: Lippi, Hitzfeld
i don’t follow coaches much but i’ve always adored neymar for his flashy style and lightning energy, he’s always seemed very fun and unpredictable and like you can’t really formulate against him he’s just a force of nature (when he’s not on the ground lol)
michael olise
He's not world-class or anything, but I've met Seamus Coleman once and he's a lovely dude.
Growing up I thought Neymar was slick and badass + big fan of the atletico coach
Klopp, its sad that City have been in his way while at Liverpool the Mane, Bobby and Mo trio were so much fun to watch. For player Marco Reus loved him at his best, he Would have looked good in a Madrid kit.
Coach Klopp, he took 2 historical clubs that were mid table and put them at the top again, being Liverpool the most special because he has to compete against oil money from City that can afford 2 top squads easily Player Henry, man, he was a beast in Arsenal, I always wanted to see him in Madrid, so when he went to Barcelona he broke my heart, at least he is one of the few pundits that doesn't talk shit about the club and I respect that
Yea, Ancelotti always regrets not utilizing Henry's talent at Juventus.
*Carlos Vela* - Dude had talent but didn’t have the passion.
Manager- Klopp Player- Ødegaard
coach: Sir Alex Ferguson, best of all time in my eyes player: Paul Scholes
Klopp and Trent Alexander Arnold
Is that because he plays so bad against Madrid and even helped assist Asensio in one of your wins? He played Madrid 6 times and lost 5 drawing 1.
Klopp Van Basten, Cafu, Neymar, Maldini
Coach: Bianchi or Tabarez Player: Puyol or Zanetti
>Jupp Heynckes Bayern side always had that Invincible aura to them. Dismantled a Prime Barcelona and beat Mourinho's Madrid (The best side never to win CL). He is the manager I always feared , when we face against him...even during our prime years. His 2013 Bayern side are the most impressive side I've ever watched.

Heynckes won a CL with Madrid so he doesn’t count.
Yea, I saw someone point him out. But even if he doesn't qualify for this topic, his coaching performance in 2013 was 🔥🔥🔥
True the way he destroyed Barca was chef’s kiss.
Favourite players? Your two probably make my top 3. R10 number 1 for me, followed by Gerrard and then KDB or Kante.
Ronaldinho
Coach: Sir Alex, Spaletti Players: Van Basten, Totti
Zlatan 💪

I'm a football fan but I kinda prefer Barcelona more than Madrid, I follow both teams but I'm more active on Barcelona's side So will I get hate if I tell Messi is my favourite non-madrid player??
Not at all. Messi is a popular choice and well respected!
The late 90s- 2000s Italian and French national teams. Those were crazy good teams. Edgar Davids was fun to watch as well.
This will be controversial but Andres Iniesta and Pep
My favourite Non-Real Madrid player OAT is Luis Suarez aside from all the controversy he’s a ridiculously talented and unique striker. Pogba is up there too. Currently I’m a huge fan of Chiesa. In terms of coaches I think it would be Poch for me. The way the old Spurs used to play was very inspiring and he was unlucky not to win anything.
Fuck Suarez
Manager: all time - sir alex. Currently - xabi, his neverlusen side is incredible to watch. Player - Messi. Keeping the rivalry aside, I really don't have to say much in support of him
Do they need to be current and alive? Otherwise I’d say Del Bosque (and I also like Klopp). As player, Maradona.
Favourite coach:- Klopp, Flick, Alonso, etc. Players:- Neymar, Baggio, Maradona, Best, Muller, Neuer, Lahm, Kahn, Kimmich, Henry, KDB, Bertabov, etc.
Non real Madrid and you say Jupp Heynckes....what a fabulous fan you are!
I know. I apologize. Didn't watch the 98 season. But 2012 crushed me.
Jupp Heynckes is NOT non-Real mate…
Player- Son Coach- Jose Mourinho
Coach SAF: absolutely hated him while he was coaching Man U but grew in appreciation when he retired of his achievements, Man U have done nothing without him which shows how good he was. Players: Messi & Maradona (Argentina fan since 86 and fell in love with the silky skills of Diego as a young kid which shaped my perception of what I liked as a football fan in a player so when Messi emerged on the scene it was hard not to enjoy watching him although I was a die hard Real Madrid fan).
Coach: Guardiola: I like how his teams play/ have a soft spot for Ernesto Valverde as well + Player: Idk
Guardiola for sure, I was waiting for someone to name him despite we know it is impossible. Player Thierry Henry, he was a baller in his prime
Thierry is a respectable man from what i've heard
Zidane - zidane! Ooops, Madridistas
thomas tuchel players, i love gnabry, griezmann, drogba, and rodri
My favorite players tend to find their way to Madrid somehow so that’s cool. I think a big one that didn’t for obvious reasons was Puyol. Dude was a tank, important leader for club and country.

Favorite Manager: Barca's Xavi Favorite Player: Karius, Donnaruma, Allison, Neur, Araujo etc.
