Cruyff

[We'llWinThePrem]

If we go for the DoF approach we NEED to get this man in, imo.

Jordi or Johan?

Nice in depth analysis to support your position. I like it.

Cruyff & Rogers or Cruyff & Moyes

Rogers could be our Guadiola or Moyes could become our Ferguson.
Both are optimistic, both managers are gettable.
Neither i am 100% sure would know how to spend the money/attract the top talent.

Jordi or Johan?

Have to be Jordi, not sure why his dad would come here.

Never going to happen, along with being Technical Director at Ajax he has about 5 other consultant roles at various clubs around the world....

Doesn't want to move away from Barcelona apparently.
(For the record, I said to the missus the other day that Rodgers & Cruyff would be my dream management team. Emphasis on "dream" admittedly...)

 

[InOffMeLeftShin]

Thought he'd been a bit of a nightmare in the Ajax boardroom. He had run ins with a number of staff and generally thought he was above everything from what I can remember. Maybe it was Deselina who was talking about it before. Not sure how much involvement he has with signings etc. at Ajax, most of their players come through the system there so I don't know how it would translate to our situation. What would he bring to the job other than being Johann Cruyff?

 

[SugarRay]

As often happens with genuine geniuses, Cruyff is apparently difficult to work with and finds it hard to get along with mere mortals.

Absolute non-starter.

Van Gaal in as manager. He loves bringing through youth and is a master tactician and motivator. He is the man we NEED.

Id go for Txiki Begiristain is we are going down that route

 

[Dharmabum]

Back then I was actually also suggesting as some sort of role at Spurs but it's too late now.
RIP.
