  2. Gallardo not nominated but Abel Ferreira is.. meanwhile Abel Ferreira’s team got absolutely tactically destroyed by Gallardo to the point of pure embarrassment and holding on by their last finger which was VAR. And he admittedly uses Gallardo’s own tactics for his team. Makes you wonder if people even watch the games when they nominate people. I guess it has to do with winning trophies but then why was Poch nominated?

    • my friend all this individual awards doesn t mean anything for me. this is just for have something people to talk about. i don t give a shit.
      As for this Portugal fraud the only i can tell you is that one Greek club kicked him out in less than a year and he go to Brasil where he take a ready team and he only just copy Gallardo.
      Go figure !!!
