2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[Blue Roo]

What a laugh! Bielsa! Just pick out whoever is flavour of the month now and grab him.

wiki - Given his heavy influence on former players, many of whom later became coaches (Mauricio Pochettino, Diego Simeone, Marcelo Gallardo) he is considered one of the most influential managers[66] in the modern era, introducing a third wave ideology in the Argentine coaching dichotomy previously influenced by César Luis Menotti and Carlos Bilardo. Pep Guardiola has labeled Bielsa as the best in the world.[67]

Looks like anyone can beat TOP 6 teams but us...

Bielsa has been a top although controversial manager for a long time.

I would have been made up with him before Koeman.

The club needed shaking up. However hopefully we now have Brands in full control, not sure if they would be match anyway.

I'm always a big fan of a wild card person and not a sanatised and sycophantic beige media man.

If only Everton were able to convince him to come instead of Leeds.
Maybe we get a chance down the track.
He'd suit this club down to the ground.

Someone seriously called Bielsa the flavor of the month?

It's a good call that his teams run out of gas. The congested fixture schedule in December would probably kill his teams. I'm also not entirely sure that his tactics would work in the PL, nor do I think he would last long anywhere. He might honestly be insane. It would be a fun ride, though.

Silva is fine, he's gotten it right more than wrong this season so far, we've been a bit unlucky, but no tactics can save some of these players. They simply aren't good enough.

Cheers for that Mr Besiktas.

See if he wants Tosun back while he's here!

He would've come here in a heartbeat. I don't think our board would've been comfortable with him, however. He's nuts, man.

Which wouldn't be as big an issue, if we could also beat the other 14

Imagine the scenes on the sidelines with him and Ferguson

 

[Benedict]

Didn't he win one in eleven after our underhand approach put him off his game?

Gonna end badly for him, he doesn't inspire much, he's like a timid little Orville the Duck.

 

[Azza]

This Watford manager is doing a pretty good job.

 

[Kinky Koeman]

Although I am not impressed but still a bit early to tell. He has half a season to prove.

Sam Allardyce absolutely loves this. x

Sorry wrong post quoted.

 

[HeadieTwo]

close this thread

 

[Zatara]

So many posters here who didnt see Kendall when he was first appointed manager nor live through the Walker + Smith + Kendall 3 managerial stints.

The "i want it now" mentality at its finest.

 

[EnglishRoundabout]

Silva is safe as houses.

Anyone who thinks otherwise just isn't at the races.

Don’t often agree with you, especially where Pickford is concerned. But you are spot on here.

We have 7 wins and 8 losses. That....kind of proves he's gotten it wrong more than right.
