What happened to those “old foxes” the benches? (II)

Last update 23 December, 2013 by Julio Muñoz

Not many days ago we gave a brief review of those geniuses of the benches forgotten by the passage of time. Carried by the inexorable passage of time, many of us had lost track. Following that same trail, in Hanging for Soccer we continue our series of forgotten technicians. Some will sound like.

1- Goyo Manzano: This psychologist from Bailén who has managed the destinies of nine teams in the First Division and many others in the lower categories was the watchword of Mallorca at the beginning of the millennium. Even, with the vermilions he spent the last season looking for a salvation that finally did not occur. At present, to their 57 is looking for equipment.

2-Juande Ramos: The man who made Sevilla great not only in Spain but in the world has been the coach of 15 clubs. After leaving the League, stepped on English soil at Tottenham before starting his career in Russia. Now, to their 59 years, it is the Ukrainian FC Dnipro Dnipropetrovsk who is lucky to have him.

3- Jose Antonio Camacho: China was his last experience with the position of coach in between. However, Now he is looking for a team to take the reins. Arduous task for the Cieza technician.

4- Quique Sanchez Flores: to their 48 years after having been on the benches of Atlético and Valencia or Benfica, he is for the third year at Al-Ahli in Dubai, where he is calm earning important economic amount. However, it will be difficult not to see him soon in Spain.

5- Radomir Antic: many hear him on the radio and think that he has no occupation other than that of a commentator. However, Rado is currently coach of the Chinese Shandong Luneng. To his 65 years and with a spectacular background behind him, a good place to retire.

6- Fernando Castro Santos placeholder image: the man of the miracle in Compostela, club to which he rose from nothing to First. Today without equipment to their 61 years, in recent times he was seen in modest football. He is the father of the Getafe player, Diego Castro.

Santos fue en su día el artífice del éxito del Compostela.
Santos was once the architect of the success of Compostela.

7- Miguel Angel Lotina: the data condemn you. A downhill specialist (7), of course they never gave him strong teams to show his category. Looking for a set to run. Brings experience and personality, but first of all, his good-natured character.

8- Victor Fernandez: passionate about soccer attack after three years without training, in 2013 Belgian Ghent opted for him. Got off to a good start, but little by little the results turned their back on him until last September he was dismissed. TVE commentator, His reputation as an offensive coach has as many detractors as fans.
