I further believe Real Madrid a strong candidate champion there is no particular reason just my hunch
Zidane is one part of Real Madrid a few years ago I think he knows what it takes Real madrid
Zidane is a legend as a player for Real Madrid and if he could made Real Madrid be the champion this season this is could be awesome achievement because only several people could do that and Guardiola and Luis Enrique already did it got spanish league trophy as the player and as the coach
He could and he will, winning the champions league is a much harder feat that he has accomplished so winning the spanish league should be easy for him. He might or might not be able to win it this season however there is still many other season to come and he will get it sooner or later
i think he doesn't have much time to prove it and this season is mandatory because be a manager of Real Madrid is fully under pressure and usually the owner of Madrid not have much patience to see it because if Real Madrid playing bad with several matches they will immediately sacked the coaches
Thats a common thing in every rich club, which the owner invests his money not for nothing, especially when he has given millions euro for the club. Anw I'm sure Zidane will give his best, and what he do for Real Madrid so far is pretty amazing.
Falconer, I value your opinion regarding football because I feel you are a real fan of the game. I just wanna ask what your opinion of Zidane be as a manager. Is he really as good as how the media and the people portray him to be? Did he bring new tactics and ideas in the modern game and thereby creating something new? How good is he really compared to Pep Guardiola?
To me, my opinion of him is mixed. I say we wait for a few years before we label him as great or not. His resume will say a lot about his coaching by that time.
