Fonseca for me, if a tad unrealistic Thought he would have been an exciting candidate for Everton, when they were linked Instead, they went for serial relegation firefighter, Big Sam That will probably end in tears Not relegation of course, but Everton fans won’t put up with that type of football for long 

So on the basis that I thought he was a good fit for Everton, he’d be brilliant for us 

Out of the rest, then it would have to be Karanka

No it doesnt matter. You can make a case for every situation. Regrettably you only have to look across the city to see what a supporter of a club can do with a bit of passion and limited resources . 

 

But Tufty hasn't got the Blades up, at least not yet.

 

No doubt they're playing entertaining football - so did Fulham last season - but that doesn't necessarily mean promotion.

 

One of the reasons why we're in this mess is because at the outset there were confused objectives.

 

Which mattered most, style or promotion?

 

It's not for nothing that Gibson at bonny Borough has gone for another dour pragmatist ...

But why would Jokanovic want to come here and leave West London?

 

He's in the Smoke, and Fulham are in a better league position than us.

 

Their team has cost even more to assemble than ours, and they went out at the semi-final stage last season as did we.

There team cost nowhere near as much as ours, they went out on a dodgy penalty playing quality football, why would he want to manage Wednesday, we are a far more attractive proposition than Fulham.

Funny isn't it.

They say the bookies are rarely wrong.

 

Yet up to this stage...their top ten and ours are quite different.

No automatic alt text available.

 

Infact their two favourites (Poyet and McLaren)  don't even make our top ten (at this stage)

 

Which begs the question.....

If we haven't been lumping on them....then who the hell has?

Your listing the market value of Fulham player's, and?

 

Doesn't mean they've spent more does it, that's just the current market value of their players, if anything it shows Jokanovic has improved those players. If you want a net spend for both clubs for this season you'll find that they are as follows..

 

Fulham net spend - £428k

Wednesday net spend - £13.23m

 

So yeah, Fulham have spent nowhere near as much as us. 

https://www.transfermarkt.co.uk/fc-fulham/transfers/verein/931/saison_id/2017

 

Jokanovic got Watford promoted via the top 2 playing the best football I've ever seen a championship club play, he also got Fulham playing excellent football last season, and your not taking into account he has lost at least 3 key players this summer, the LB Malone to Huddersfield, Aluko to Reading and Chris Martin went back to derby, where as Carlos had the luxury of not having to sell ANY players. 

 

It's all about opinions and I genuinely believe Jokanovic given the same time as Carlos would get us up....and in style.

 

All the above is pointless anyway as we won't even be looking at him lol
