2018/19 Marco Silva - New Poll Added

[Tigger]

Right now I'd take Moyes. I'd take any one. Just get rid of him. He's worse than 3rd season Martinez.

No

 

[Khalekan]

Jagielka and Lescott - 10m
Keane and Mina - 55m

Cahill - 2m
Sigurdsson - 40m

Martyn and Howard - 6m
Pickford - 30m

Carsley and Gravesen - 4.5m
Schneiderin and McCarthy - 38m

Arteta - 2m
Bolasie - 27m

Johnson - 8.5m
Tosun - 27m

I'm not saying I want us to go back to the days of having next to no money, but who remembers that feeling of seeing us pick up bargain after bargain and watching them not only give their all for the club, which is more then we can say for most of our first team squad at present, but also turn out to be massive successes with us?

Is just so, so typical of us to find a pot of gold after 20 years only to waste it on pure trash thanks to awful managerial decisions.

What I wouldn't give to have the passion of Cahill, the influence of Arteta, the determination of Carsley, the trusted centre half pairing of Jagielka and Lescott, and the threat and finishing of AJ.

What a mess we are right now. It's a crying shame.

The only thing is Sam, the Artetas, Cahills, AJs et al would cost silly money happen they were around today....whilst yer Bolasies, Schneiderlins, Keanes etc. would have cost a couple of million apiece back in those days

Yes there was issues when he left, but he's a better option than Big Sam, I just reckon if silva does go kenwright will sweet talk moshiri and Moyes will be in, it would be an easy appointment, he knows the place a few players are still here. I'd forgive him and I reckon he would flourish here, I just have a feeling it could work, sometimes the un favoured can turn out to be a good fit.

Your totally forgetting about Marcel brands

Moyes was like a proper manager who deals with everything

He wouldn't want to work under brands. Esp over transfers

I think S'ton did well signing Hassenhutl, I think Nuno Santo has done a terrific job at at Wolves. I don't advocate us going for him, but I think even the likes of Eddie Howe would be a far better/more positive choice than Moyes. There are lots of good up and coming managers in European leagues, but I don't really follow them and don't have the inclination to research them right now.

The point is mate, Moyes has had disaster after disaster for the last 6 years since he left us. He'd ran his course in his final seasons with us anyway and showed us nothing but disrespect after he left. He'd be bottom of my list.

The reason Santo is doing well at Wolves is that club is essentially a shop window for Jorge Mendes.

I don't see Howe as a good option as I see him much the same as Koeman and Silva ok managers but not quite good enough for us. Many wouldn't fancy him but Dyche would be a good fit, tough British type that's what I think we need, he's done at Burnley like Moyes did here worked wonders with little funds. I saw somewhere Wagner as favourite, perhaps he knew something walking out on Huddersfield.

You’re having a mare tonight pal

Dyche, Wagner? Let me off please . .

 

[Big Fat Sam]

I would genuinely go all out to bring Arteta home. He's been learning from the best in the business for a few years now and before that was working under another genius in Wenger.

He'll be wanting to get a gig of his own before too long and it could turn into an inspired appointment.

That’s the ironic thing - Moyes was a much better DOF than Brands, at least so far!

Moshiri and Brands have never even approached Burnley about Dyche, because they have a vision for the club which involves a long term strategy of playing a certain style of football (not the Dyche brand).

In any event, Dyche is having a poor season with Burnley (even we battered them!) and for me he would be a very uninspiring appointment.

 

[Wat Tyler]

Silva should never have got the job and needs chasing, but One thing that would really worry me about sacking Silva would mean Unsworth to the end of the season. He was nothing short of horrific last season.

He’s working with silva, de bruyne, silva, sane

He ain’t getting a tune out of Tom Davies

Moyes? Just GTF you absolute mentalists lol

Haha lol

Arteta could do no worse than any of our previous four managers and will have learned plenty from Guardiola.

Let him shape the squad and accept we're are starting as a rubbish Premier League team and see what he can do in 18 months.

No big four or five year deals any more though please.

Nobody gets a tune out of dented trumpet @nsno-chris

Slightly off topic but why isnt Pellegrini being labled as a fraud when he's just had a worse result in the cup, have 1 extra point than us and are just as inconsistent after spending over £100mill?

Us and West Ham's imo are the 2 hardest premier league jobs, we are both big clubs that's are crying out to win something, but look as far away as ever from doing so. Both jobs are extremely hard, I bet if you asked Pellegrini is there more pressure at West Ham than city he would say yes. So if an experience manager like him is struggling what chance does Silva have here, no chance he's as good as gone in my eyes, but time will tell.
