5 reasons why Zidane shouldn’t be sacked even if he fails to win a trophy this season 

#2 About time a manager is given time despite failure

Ancelotti was fired just a season after lifting the Champions League

And what if Madrid don’t win a title come the end of the season? What next? If we consider the usual standards of Madrid, then Zidane’s head will be on a pole and a new manager will be brought on to replace him.

For once, Madridistas thought that their manager won’t be sacked after a trophy-less season in 2014-15. And yet, Carlo Ancelotti was fired against the wishes of the fans and the players. And to top that act of audacity, Florentino Perez actually hired a figure who isn’t really liked by the Madrid fanbase.

Once again, Madridistas get the feeling that Zidane will not be sacked even if he doesn’t win a trophy by the end of the season.

And, for the love of loyalty and trust, that should be case. Madrid have already toned down their Galactico policy in the transfers and have shifted their focus to signing young players with massive potential for cheap prices, so it is time they change their manager hiring and firing policies too.

And a good start would be to give Zidane continuity despite a season of failure.
