Philb125 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 His short managerial career so far is hugely impressive averaging 1.99 points per game at Feyenoord and winning the league whilst there. Plays 433 which would suit us well, wants to come to England (if reports that he was keen to take Newcastle job are correct). Whilst hes he’s a big name, no chance that Feyenoord pay as much as we were paying Bruce. His ex teammates from an illustrious playing career hold top jobs all over Europe’s top clubs so you’d hope those contacts be golden too. What’s not to like? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brad_owl Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 (edited) I don't see how this would be bad, what contacts he would have too, sign him up! Edited July 16, 2019 by Brad_owl Add Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leaping Lannys Perm Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Didn't van Bronckhorst turn Newcastle down? I know its only Twitter rumours but would be hilarious if we ended up with him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue and white Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 The more you look at it the more this really stacks up and makes perfect sense. Young impressive manager, managed at a high standard already and had success. Good contacts, seemingly looking for another job. DC get.on the phone and get him in. GVB Barmy Army.

marshy Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Guy's. We're clutching here. Me included before anyone starts getting out of their pram. Seriously clutching, it's not good for your sanity. Especially when we give it to firkin La La La La Zola. On second thoughts, keep clutching FFS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lambownumber5 Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 I'm sure there's nothing in this one but Cocu went to Derby. Is our situation that far removed from theirs? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quist Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 The foreign names in list are on the whole absolute garbage. However only two stand close scrutiny Van Bronckhorst and Tedesco. Both have achieved something quite recently and both were in work last season.GVB did play in England at highest level for a number of years was a very good player and hopefully learned about football culture and variances of the game in the lower leagues. If we do recruit somebody like this I hope we hang on to scouting team brought in by traitor as judging by those we have brought in on free transfers have not done a bad job. I know they all bring with hem their own team but I would very much like to see us add into a young progressive English coach who could one day step in and take over the reins. If GVB is a success he will leave as his high profile past will attract him to some very big clubs but I do think he would act in a more dignified way than last manager probably advising us he would leave at end of a season. Think he is more realistic target tnhan some on here believe as a large number of high profile Dutch managers have managed in Championship.

Hack-Abusi Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 For me would be a MASSIVE coup if we got him on board - definate statement manager and could see some quality players based in holland being tempted to come here HOWEVER - personally think he's out of reach for us at the minute .... Although with Cocu to Derby, you never know .. FACT when i think about it, he's now my no.1 choice! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Night-Owl Posted July 16, 2019 Share Posted July 16, 2019 Quite a lot of people on facebook seem to think there's something in this. Would be great if true and a statement of intent. Young proven manager with contacts and links to some big clubs. Plus it would wipe the smug grin off Ashley's fat greedy face and it would be karma and pay back, if we got one of the better names that turned them down. If possible get it done DC.

Also, odds on favourite for a return to Rangers when/if it starts to go wrong for Gerrard. That's more of a step down then going to rangers, zero competition Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
