Luiz taken up MMA?

Edit: Ridiculous how much better Jacuzzi is than his team-mates. He could go for big money one day if he continues to improve.

The bigger point to be made is, why did anyone like AVB, why did he get another job based off doing precisely what he went on to do at Spurs previously at Chelsea.

There was not a single sign of him being even a competent let alone good manager from his time at Chelsea, he made every single thing at the club worse, turned the players against him, was tactically inept and played crap football.

How did he even get a job in management, how did CHelsea decide to spend big on him and even more so how on earth did Spurs take a punt on him? It all seems to stem from, he worked under Mourinho, he's Portuguese......... he must be the next Mourinho? Someone ends up considered a potentially great manager because he has has some similarities with another top manager.... except nothing to do with his actual managing ability, but proximity to him and where he was born.......... madness.

AVB was fairly disastrous but it is fairly easy to see why he was appointed. He is eloquent, smart and achieved a fairly stupendous season with Porto. He has a clear vision of what he wants to do and has the brains to analyse stats.

At Chelsea there was always a question mark over his exit given the brief he was given; he was told to clear out the old players and play exciting football. The old players undermined him until the club reverted to the old methodology and he was sacked.

At Spurs he set up a system that basically assisted and relied on Bale doing great things. Once he was sold, it all went **** up.
