New manager thread

[Buzzo]

I'd rather go for someone like Van Gaal or Laudrup or even Rudi Garcia ahead of Martinez

Martinez should be absolutely the last resort imo

Our trusted sources in Boston say that both AVB and Martinez are in town. Also suggestion that Martinez favours Pako as his no.2

Can't work out if he's been on a constant piss take since he signed up. All this "our sources" this and "our sources" that. Surely he's taking the piss.

There is a steady stream of mis-information.

Well Mourinho had won the Champs League before Chelsea. Dalglish had been steeped in the tradition of the club he was about to manage as had Fagan and were brought up on the successes of a golden period at LFC, as was Guardiola at Barca. Wenger had won Ligue 1 with Monaco and arrived at a time when his methods were totally revolutionary to football and his methods have been adopted by pretty much everyone since he arrived. His appointment was a masterstroke by Arsenal.

Martinez has won As a player
Football League Third Division (1): 1996–97
Football League Trophy (1): 1998–99
Swansea City
Football League Trophy (1): 2005–06
As a manager
Swansea City
Football League One (1): 2007–08

Martinez is a risky appointment for me. I'd prefer AVB to him, as I have slightly fewer reservations about him.

I meant Mourinho before Benfica, União de Leiria and then Porto took a punt on him. As for the others , the French league was always **** but ill give you Wenger the rest had achieved exactly the same as Martinez has in management, ie nothing.

[little dave hedgehog]

i would definitely vote for el matador if it meant brian mcbride coming to the club to lead the line.

Ah **** it. I started to reply, but lost enthusiasm

We shall see I guess. But as stated I'll be worried in a Hodgsonesque way if we appoint Martinez.
