Interesting News: Al Ettifaq fires former Iran coach Branko Ivankovic

Branko's best time as a headcoach might have been in the Irannian football after all... How did he do in the Chinese league?

oh, but why, mommy?
he was the bestest and gutsiest and most courageous coach in the whole wide world, mommy.
why, oh why?
why is the world so cruel?

He won the double in Croatia, became champion in China and now became fourth in the league and having an excellent AFC cup season. Only failure was the loss to SS, a game he couldn't even attend.

Actually he didn't only have a great record in Iran, but also in club football up until today.

I wonder if he ever again gets to manage a soccer team at a World Cup; most coaches in the world don't get that chance. Maybe now Branko can try to take charge of a Japanese club. (Ghotbi is doing well in there, his team is towards the top of the J1-league table!)
