I don't know. Whoever comes in, there's not one area of the team i'm reasonably happy with as something we can work on. From the error prone back 4, to the powderpuff midfield to the toothless attack. It's a mish-mash of various manager's abortive attempts to build something in their image. Probably needs a bigger clear-out than at any time since the MON era but Lerner isn't going to sanction that.
Our creative midfielders, Grealish, Gil, Traore, are the best we've had in a long time, we just ned a manager that can utilise them.

I agree. The one thing that gives me some hope is I really beleive this team of players is actually rather good. They have just been unlucky or poorly coached or both.

Sanchez, Gestede, possibly Joe Cole if he comes back from Coventry.

Okore, Gana, Senderos, Veretout, Ayew, Amavi, N'Zogbia, Gestede, Siegrist/Cissokho (on loan) and Sarkic (under-21s).

I think that's it.

We could do with more though. I'd make a bit for Joey Le Barton.

Okore's Danish isn't he? I'm sure he did well at school but do we know for sure about his linguistic abilities?

One thing's for sure, Garde had an excellent relationship with Aulas at Lyon and left the club in a dignified way.

I so wanted Sherwood to succeed. Thanks for the Semi final, but I guess the change had to be made.

I am struggling to think of a manager I would want who would realistically come to us. I would be happy with Rodgers but can't see him coming to VP, ditto Moyes. Please not Pearson, that would be so small time and unremarkable. plus he's mental. The more I think about Remi Garde the better I feel. It's a risk but an interesting one. Mind you I said that about Tim Sherwood.

I think Okore's parents are Ivorian and he was born there.
