Next manager?

[adrenachrome]

Even though he has a point, the tweeter himself sounds like a prize ***t.

Soon we will  be engulfed in a Twattery Tsunami. Witness The Golden Golem of Greatness who is busy preparing global armageddon through the medium.

aye; its like a slightly warmer, richer isle of man.

Yeh both very similar.

Monaco is one of the most boring places on earth.  It is to cities to live what Manchester City is to football clubs.  A big pile of money that stopped being a proper place a long time ago.  Live there, count your money.  That's it.

Howsabout DOF Ralph Minge (Dynamo Dresden) & Manager Kenny Jacket (Pompey)?

Et voila: Minge & Jacket.

Come on Villa, stop faffing around and go get Deano Smith in.

I am not interested in JT being our boss, not in the slightest. He needs to learn the ropes either as assistant or at a smaller less pressured club.

I'd be surprised if we don't have a manager confirmed before the end of the week.
It's fairly urgent.

Certainly is. Sky will have run out of names to spuriously throw in the hat by the end of the week. There's only so many managers in the world.

you forgot  Joe Royal

Won’t be long before they get to Curbishley, Hoddle and Owen Coyle.

My son interviewed Martinez and was very impressed by his intelligence, a box that has not been ticked many times since Houllier.

TBH i couldn't careless if he was as thick as a whale omelette as long as  he can run a football team

I like the idea of Terry being involved but not as number 1. I fear he and Faria will both be very pragmatic exponents of the style that I want us to move away from, not looking to be front foot more possession based. I would prefer Arteta if Henry is not happening, or indeed go get Dean Smith, whos side are currently number 1 in the division in so many of the stats you would want to see your side excelling in. The quote from Klopp is totally right, football should entertain. I don't think Mourinho sides have done that in a long long time which worries me about Faria. I hope it it is Terry he finds a master tactition of pressing, attacking based football to bring in as number 2. More years of football like Bruce dished out can't be allowed.

Wasn't Steve Bruce quite a good defender?

He wasn't that good. He never managed to play for England at full international level.

No  but neither did D Mortimer or G shaw .. and carlton palmer, mick mills, phil neale  denis wise keith curle geoff thomas  all did

Running a football club without intelligence?  There's a novel concept.  File under Sleeves, Roll Up.

Not sure what your point is, how many thick, successful managers do you know?

Not sure what your point is, how many thick, successful managers do you know? and my point is you don't have to be intelligent to be a football manager you just have to know about football

How many intelligent ones do you know?  and i dont mean when they talk about football.... and my point is you don't have to be intelligent to be a football manager you just have to know about football

Plenty. Mourinho being one,  Guardiola another.
