I'd really like Felix Magath. His CV is incredible. He's starting to work his influence at Fulham now.

up until a few days ago Stan was unequivocal in wanting Lambert to stay and said so on talkshite

For me the guy is just a bit of a twat, and the fact he works for such a shit radio station and is so annoying on it just adds to that.  Anyway on with the thread...

Not a bad shout.  I think it was a mistake for Fulham to bring him in so late, but if he was to get a full pre-season with us then I think he might be a good manager for us.  Wonder what the chances are of him staying at Fulham should they go down, he would have a fair bit of money to spend from what I hear.

He seemed to have retired, or semi-retired by the time they got him. They've obviously waved a lot of money at him. He'd certainly be an improvement on Lambert but I think if Randy's in charge we wouldn't be able to afford him.
If we get a new owner, I'd rather get a younger manager in.

I personally think we need somebody experienced, that can come in and quickly sort the mess out. 

Look how well the last flavour of the month manager did for us!?

Magath's a little nuts, to be honest. A gun for hire, but one which might backfire chaotically.

From all accounts, that is correct Monty. He definitely can do well but sounds like he can also easily cause a player revolt.

If anyone thought Houllier could be confrontational, he's nothing compared to Magath.

As a manager, Magath quickly gained respect and became notorious for his hard, grinding training methods, laying heavy emphasis on discipline, fitness and conditioning. Players gave him nicknames like "Saddam" (Saddam Hussein) or “Quälix”, a rhyming mash of his first name Felix and the German verb “quälen” (to torture).[16] He was once described by former Eintracht Frankfurt player Bachirou Salou as the "last dictator in Europe".[17]

When he got the Fulham job, Raphael Honigstein tweeted some interesting stories about Magath, the gist of almost all of which was that he's absolutely fucking hatstand.

Can we change the title of this thread to 'Ad's sacked, let's let Moyes in'?

I loved the story when he was at Bayern Munich and the squad got back to Munich after a defeat and he made them train in the dark for the next two hours.  Completely hatstand.
