Who does everyone want then?

[snez1]

Don't see a thread solely for the discussion of who our next manager should be so thought I'd start one. Four names stand out to me for different reasons and they might not all be realistic but I'd still like them all to be at least considered: Capello, Klopp, Villas-Boas and Benitez. Who tickles your fancy?

 

I'll put a link to the blog I wrote about the four men mentioned above here if anyone wants a quick read of it ( One Man & His Blog: FSG's Most Wanted (Hopefully) ). Not going to post all the text as I didn't want to get too deep into it on this actual thread, it was more a case of finding out who everyone thinks we should appoint next.

Not villas boas, would take any of the other three.

[Captain]

I want someone who will do better than Kenny. Otherwise, there is no point.

Fuck me. Do you have any other completely fucking obvious points you'd like to make?

We all do. The question is who gives us the best chance of significantly improving?

[Captain]

Yes, let's avoid Hodgson this time around.

[Newport]

If I can't have Rafa I would like to have AVB.

This is a start - rather than naming a fella perhaps it is more constructive to start with a bunch of random attributes.

 

First and foremost - is he gonna be a trackie with his initials and boots guy or a suit/sweater and a scarf type? Answer that and you have narrowed the field by half.

Wait till Roy wins at the Euro's! You'll be begging for him to come back! :whistle:

I think we should go for the trackie/shoes/scarf type personally.

[Fugitive]

Glenn Hoddle and that Eileen Drewery as his assistant. Maybe a bit a witchcraft will get us back on track.

Glenn Hoddle

 

some of the worst sideline fashion sense ever - appalling choice.

[WaltonRed]

I reckon whoever it is will of worked with/know well the new DOF

[TheHowieLama]

The mention of a DOF makes me think sweater/scarf, maybe a little stubble, not a full on Alonso playoff beard but a little something.

I almost want to wish for a sweater vest but I think that may be greedy. He should have an accent too.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Capello - too old

Klopp - little chance of getting

Benitez - no thanks

 

That leaves AVB, he ticks most of the boxes for a young manager who's also won a trophy or two, but now numerous journos are saying he's a no-go.

 

Fashion wise, i'd say no club gear and preferably someone with an accent, ties a scarf like a twat and who likes dropping metaphors at press conferences.

I think it is pretty much a guarantee that he will have an accent. Like every other human.

[TheHowieLama]

Boxers or briefs?

So now we are getting somewhere.

[Guest ShoePiss]

Sweater vest?

[TheHowieLama]

It would be sweet - probably no chance without CL next year.

[Babb'sBurstNad]

Boxers or briefs?

 

Neither, let it hang free and dab it with a hanky after a piss, i'm sure some posh continental types probably do that.

 

So long as he doesn't tuck his scarf in properly he'll be ok by me.

[TheHowieLama]

Word - a freeballer, yes.

PissHanky?

[Babb'sBurstNad]

PissHanky?

 

Yep, i've heard Pat Rice carries Wenger's. All the best managers have them.

[TheHowieLama]

What - hankie caddies? So we need two fellas then.
