He got an £8m pay off also at the timeOriginally posted by dom9 View PostPreviously sacked manager set to return.
"Leonardo Jardim still lives in Monaco and sees the players in the street when he goes to the bakery. He's the favourite to replace Henry. He had amazing results, winning the league in 2017, before this season when things didn't go well for the team."

No he wasn't guaranteed of that. He was given a team at the bottom of the league, with players that either didn't want to be there, or were too young to really compete. They sold their 2017 team when the going was good, and made amazing amounts of money. So it was a rebuilding job for him. Fair play to Henry for backing himself in that situation.
Its easy to say he was ****, when in reality the situation he was put into was basically doomed to fail if the expectation was lots of success.
He had actually started turning it round, picking up wins and draws. But obviously it was too little too late.*Except Michael, who died.

They got beat by a second division team in the cup at the weekend.
It was a poor appointment. They still have a decent squad (for the French league) and needed an experienced manager to guide them to safety this season and perhaps then take a gamble on an unproven 'big name's manager next season.Last edited by spud_gun; 25-01-19, 10:28 AM.

I feel like as a fan base, we are usually dead against this sort of appointment for any club. Its boring, regressive and lazy. Its Big Sam.Originally posted by spud_gun View PostThey got beat of a second division team in the cup at the weekend.

No one wants Big Sam. Henry is a French Footballing legend (sort of) So you can understand why they took the risk.*Except Michael, who died.
