COMMENT: The Napoli boss is the favourite to succeed Carlo Ancelotti should he be fired. Madrid would be making a smart move appointing a man who learned his trade at the Bernabeu

What Real Madrid want and what Real Madrid need are two very different things and sometimes the club itself is unsure where the distinction should be made.
They wanted Jose Mourinho. He was hired as coach to be the ego above all egos; the man capable of pointing to his medal tally and drag an under-performing dressing room into line. It worked, for a while. He won the league title but eventually departed with a trail of discord and disharmony in his wake.
