New manager thread

[Tee]

Rafa would feel so right. But one hero came back and he has gone....

[Phoenix07]

Villas Boas and Benitez for me (top 2 who are out of work).

If not, I'd go for Bielsa.

All three have the ability to attract European talent, unless we got someone like Cruyff as DOF.

I fear it will be a bright young thing though.

If money was no object...

Pep Guardiola, with Cryuff as DoF.
Young, proven manager in a tried and trusted partnership that built Barca

...well, we can dream!

I concur. And agree.

Lets just hope the Bookies have got this wrong again

Only one's id be remotely interested in.

This Martinez stuff has a worrying no smoke without fire feel about it. Nice lad, done well to keep them up but he wouldnt have even made a shortlist if this job was available in March. The criteria for this job needs to be more than Premier League survival with a little club.

[Darkon]

I have a strong feeling it will be Martinez and Txiki coming in as DoF.

Maybe it's his 'success' on a shoestring budget FSG find attractive?

Agree 100%.

[Tomovich]

I'm wondering who will assist the owners in choosing the right manager? Who do we still have left? As long as they don't turn to Klinsmann...

it would definitely be a punt, and a risky one at that. He has something about him, not sure what exactly, but considering we've gone through managers so quickly recently, its too much of a punt for us right now.

I'm suprised Colin and Fat Sam are not listed in the betting

[BobTheCharmer]

I hope its someone like Mark Hughes or Martin Jol. To be honest I don't give a flying ****. 30 odd years of investment both emotionally and financially thrown away by a couple of ****ing americans who know **** all about 'soccer'. Club is dead to me right now as is football. Money over glory. Brilliant stuff.

[Fredo]

I hope it's Sam Allardyce.
