BBC:

Former Brighton boss Oscar Garcia has left his job at Israeli club Maccabi Tel Aviv because of the "current security situation" in the country.
Garcia is set to be replaced by former Liverpool assistant coach Pako Ayestaran.
Garcia has been linked with the manager's job at Fulham should current coach Felix Magath be relieved of his duties.

Isn't it the same situation as the last time he left. Why did he go back if it's the same situation as before.

Really not bathing himself in glory over the past 18m!

I think he is a capable manager (given what he achieved for us under the cloud of the final months of Gus and last year's injury woes) but on a personal level, I would never employ someone like him. It's not like Israel has been peaceful for decades and suddenly its a warzone!

No doubt he will be the Fulham manager in a week or so

Bit of a flaky character, thats 3 times in a year he's resigned. Not always for football reasons either.

Maybe he can use the magic words, "Israeli league Champions" and "Championship play-offs" in the future.

The number of chairmen he'll sucker with those magic words will be considerably less tho eh? Any club doing their homework will surely note bottle job in his last two managerial appointments.

I like to think chairmen in charge of multi-million pound businesses do more homework than look at his leaving history of his past jobs. Even if they did, they'd see he left Tel-Aviv the first time to pursue a more ambitious club, he left Brighton as his ambition wasn't being matched, and he left Tel-aviv for the second time due to it being a war zone (although slightly odd he decided to re-join).

He stormed the Israeli league with a team that hadn't won it in almost a decade and sneaked into the play-offs with a poor team which in hindsight seemed to have a seriously disjointed/poisonous dressing room and a ton of injuries.

For the record I think he'd do well at another championship club who provide adequate resources, as he already proved with us.
