Fits the bill of the chairman wants a big name, he is agent is Doyen.... He won't come here, but I can almost guarantee we're interested in him. I’m interested in Claudia Schiffer 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looking at his record, he's just another Carlos. He's only 44 and managed 9 clubs - thats some going! Would much rather bring someone in with a bit more experience of British football - even if they didnt 'beat Man City' one time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tho maybe we can sell him the idea of a long term project and it’s an escape from a difficult living/working environment. I think it was Shakhtar who rejected Everton’s approach so that’s probably the biggest hurdle facing Chansiri right now. As Doyan must have said Fonseca would be interested or why bother Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As Doyan must have said Fonseca would be interested or why bother I thought everton never approached him and was just rumours ? There is no way he would stay there and turn down a big PL side like Everton champion league or not . Edited December 26, 2017 by TaxiMark Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluesteel Posted December 26, 2017 Share Posted December 26, 2017 He’s the most exciting appointment on paper, but I still think we need substance over style/hype. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluesteel Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 He seems quite similar to Carlos and Karanka with the possession game and a strict system. When it works it looks stylish and everyone loves it, when it doesn’t we’ve just seen what happens. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It involves the high press When Carlos pressed high, it worked Only when we started bringing in all these past their sell by date players who were incapable of pressing, did it all start to go wrong Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The injuries and the perceived lack of fitness probably didn’t help. The new manager will have the same squad to work with. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No, no, I agree It was only in that first season that he employed it Then we frittered away the best part of £30m on players who were incapable of playing that game It’s been said many times, but remains true, had we had spent that money on 3 or 4 players who could make that system work, we’d have been in the Premier League by now Your point about any new manager having the same players to work with, is also true That’s why I think it will all be about planning for next season We, or DC, needs to step back from this short term approach, and help the coach build a club with a proper identity 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LanceKeyring Posted December 27, 2017 Share Posted December 27, 2017 2/1 skybet now. Also, if he has been trying over a week that means he was trying before Carlos went. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
