Jose Mo!!! Has to go!

There are many facets to this Real Madrid story. No doubt, there is more than meets the eye, but from an outsiders standpoint I get this impression. Real under Jose Mo has done just ok. They have to 2 major trophy's. It hasn't been a failure and the league performance last year was spectacular. Still behind the scenes rumors have abound that the players and the coach are somewhat divided. Those divides were not a big deal last season. Real crashed out of the champions league very late and La Liga was decided by that point. The success of Spain over the summer had everyone in a good mood. Since the start of this season the lines of tensions have shown for Real. First Sergio Ramos had a beef with Jose Mo and found himself on the bench. Then Ronaldo was sad and his coach didn't appear to want to handle the matter. Now more recently Iker has been benched. They claimed his form was poor, but even a bad Iker is better than 90% of goal keepers on a given day. Especially Adon. The league has never been lost so fast. Not only are they trailing Barca by 16 points, but Aletico by 5. There has been little joy in Madrid this season. The UCL wasn't too bad, but they didn't win their group and lost to Dortmund. So why have things gone so off track so fast? I think Florentino Perez has told Jose he will not have as much to say about the transfers. Why? Most of the players Jose has brought in over the last two years have been a bust. Kehdria and Ozil the first year were good, but his last two summers have yielded some poor signings. Sahin, Contrea, Modric, Essien have all disappointed and cost big bucks. Then PSG started making inquiries. Jose realizing that the buy out for early termination during the season is 20 million and only 5 million in the summer decided with the league out of reach and players pushing for a change this summer, he went on the defensive. He intentionally benched Iker to raise the ire of Perez and the fans. He's making himself the villain, so that he can get terminated. Perez has not taken the bait so far. The super clash between Real and Man U has everyone settled down for the time being, but Jose Mo must go! Real needs to see out the rest of the season with him and not give in to terminating him early. No manager they bring in now will get the shipped turned around in time to save the league. So keep Jose Mo on the sidelines for now and make PSG pony up a purchase fee to cover that 5 Million in the summer.
