Real Madrid Has Nothing to Gain By Changing Managers Now

The writing is on the wall for Santiago Solari.

It was etched in pencil following Real Madrid's Copa del Rey ouster at the hands of Barcelona. It was traced over in Sharpie after a second home loss to Barcelona in four days effectively ended Real's already-slim chances of winning La Liga. It was covered over by a fresh coat of paint after Real's Champions League exit, an utter humiliation at the hands of Ajax that ended the club's three-year reign and sealed its first time missing the quarterfinals in nine years. The club has lost four straight at home and appears to be in just an absolutely miserable place.
