Next Manager Watch

[Gassin's finest]

It feels like a ‘feel good’ appointment and the start of a fresh new journey

Helps with the ST renewals and shirt sales for another year at least...

 

[Colonel_Klinck]

What do I do once this thread closes?

Don't worry, with Levy's track record we'll be back here before you know it

 

[archiewasking]

To Dare is to Didgeridoo...

That's just brilliant. Top work fella .

 

[felmani26]

- Bring in Ange
- Sell Kane
- Half the team kicked out

Have I missed anything else since I was on my stag this weekend?!

For what it's worth, i'm genuinely open to wholesale, open heart surgery at this club and not just a touch up here and there with the pretence that we can still achieve with this squad who've operated under an ever declining structure of standards.

The painful (and necessary) rebuild indeed.

- Levy still here like a bad smell

 

[Mouse!]

If Ange is appointed, I want the team to come out to Rattlesnake by King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard.

AC/DC - Thunderstruck would be cool too

 

[Yid-ol]

Not who I wanted, but will always back the manager and team!

A full over hall is needed. Otherwise we will end up with the same shit with another new manager! There must only be a handful of players I say shouldn't go!

So he will have his work cut out for him as soon as he joins looking to see who stays and who goes. Might free up a fair chunk of wages if a few of the top earners leave like expected though.

Best of luck to him, not that it matters as Levy is still here so failure is never far away.

 

[Hoddle&Waddle]

Do we think this will get announced tonight?

 

[Nine while nine]

Given that we've never had a Premier League manager from Australia before, it's difficult to know what to expect.

That noted, if he doesn't do MOTD interviews like Shane Donohue on 'That's Amazing', then I'm going to be pretty disappointed.

 

[überghost]

Signing of Pierre-Emerick Aboomerang incoming.

 

[Hoopspur]

I really like the style of this guy and I've read a lot of positive stuff about him from those he's worked with. I think he could be great for us.
My worry is that should he start indifferently (and he's said that his first weeks are often rocky) our fans will be booing and baying pretty quickly and the board might not give him the patience he deserves. People have said they'll give him time, but what happens after the third defeat at home when we're eleventh at Christmas?

Or we could have won all 8 before Xmas. Why worry about something that may/may not happen?

 

[sundanceyid10]

IMO it feels more than a Poch appointment. In addition to having possibly the feel good factor in uniting the club and team like Poch, but if there are anything to go by according to the articles and videos knowing more about him, he's like a tactical approach of Slot, temper of Conte if he's pissed, and fatherly/cuddly figure of Redknapp/BMJ. I really think the players will look up to him and run through walls for him.

Hope so, but if im honest I don’t think so, Poch had the making of a decent team when he started our current squad is pretty awful in my opinion. Add in the Levy factor and my expectations are not high at all.

Nah. We normally take an absolute age to do announcements so it'll probably be a few more days.

 

[A Bit Much]

Nah. We normally take an absolute age to do announcements so it'll probably be a few more days.

Need to get our apprentice designer on some flashy graphics and a video showing Ange nodding slowly as Levy tells him he'll get 500k and a bag of wotsits for a transfer budget. That sort of stuff takes a few days.

Nah, current team is definitely better than that one. That one had poisoned apples in it like Adebayor, Kaboul, Paulinho etc etc. Poch had to bring through a lot of youth and bin off half the squad to get the attitude right.

 

[Spursberg]

Thursday announcement alongside our new home kit ?

 

[haslemereyid]

Jesus - i cant imagine how premier league snowflakes are going to react to that …………

Sorry but no, I don’t think so at all. Prime Dembele, Eriksen, a young hungry Kane, great full backs. We really need to start waking up to how poor this current lot are.
