The fact that he didn't rule himself out tells you everything you need to know.

In Catalonia, I'd hope he would be drinking anything but Rioja, over-hyped and under-developed red wine which flaws are masked by heavy vanilla from french oak is not something one should be having when perefect, Catalonian wine is so easily available.
But I guess I'm straying ever so slightly off topic.
Vino casa, the only wine you ever need to know in Spain or Italy.

Baaah, don't really know about that. This used to be true, but lately after Venetians discovered that they could sell vino della casa to Americans for the price of a highly reputable wine, it all went downhill. I stay away from that crap, unless it is in my casa, then you can safely drink it.

Everything is overpriced in Venice. Visit a Conad, buy your own.

Nothing tastes as good as cheap wine feels

After all his comments today some Spurs fans actually still think he will go. I don’t see how people are reading his comments and still thinking he will leave... it’s like the fucking twilight zone in here.

I find Venice cheaper than people say, not St Marks square et c but generally pretty decent. I’ve had a house in Ibiza for 18 years , you get proper stung there if you’re not careful.

I think from his comments it's very obvious that it's a job he'd want but I don't think there's much chance he'd be going now at all. I think the best thing for us would be for Madrid to appoint a good long term successor to Zidane and not a sort of fill in manager like Benitez.

I think he's being clever. I don't think he will leave anytime soon but is showing enough respect to Real Madrid so the door is open in the future. He wouldn't sign a new contract this early if he was considering a big move. He believes in this project but is still realistic in thinking a dream job could become available down the road.

Yeah me to in general, but you got to know where to go, what to say and when to yell at them for over charging. There is only one place in the entire city that sells wine to the actual going market price.
Point being, don't do vino della casa in Italy. Those days are long gone.
And don't drink Rioja in Catalonia.

Pretty sure the media source is unreliable but diariogol claim Ronaldo would veto Poch.

Probably rubbish but considering the work Poch would expect from Ronaldo it is plausible.

Depends where really, if you are in a tourist hotspot yes you're gonna be ripped off, particularly if you don't know what you're doing. But in most restaurants they do label the price of house wine, its normally considerably cheaper than the other options, its quality varies greatly however.

Except Ronaldo is one of the most committed and hard-working trainers in the game, based on previous testimonies

Obviously you don't get that good without being so.
But he knows that he cant run and press and that he believes he is more effective limiting his role. Ronaldo in his mid-twenties would suit Poch, Ronaldo now wont, not because he is lazy because he makes a conscious decision on how he should play and he is not going to listen to someone telling him differently.
