How on earth was there outrage about the bring back thread era put we are on board for round two of a million Jesus puns.

Lord have mercy.
 
Tim Vickery is no more a South American football expert than I am a RB Leipzig expert. Reading local papers and watching footie games still makes your opinion wildly subjective at the end of the day.

Although he was right on Funes Mori but even a broken clock is right twice per day.

Remember he backtracked on Funes Mori though when he wasn't a complete disaster from the word go.
 
This may be the most fact founded rumour floating about. The fact that no one had mentioned him before yesterday, the fact that he may have this Portuguese/Brazilian footballing model experience that Brands seems focused on and the fact that he may be on the cheap as season is over in Brazil (except for World Club Championship) all sort of makes sense. But then he's not available until Xmas.......who knows.....still deflated as [Poor language removed] from Sat.

Don't know much about Portuguese football, but that 70% win rate at Benfica over 321 games certainly looks impressive.
 
At the risk of being labelled a xenophobe I hope this isn't the choice the board make.

At the start of the season? Sure, he has solid credentials and bags of experience. Midway through with a nightmare fixture list upcoming? Well, I'd sooner someone comes in who speaks the language and who, ideally, has experience in this league.

Most here are very sanguine about the spectre of relegation. On paper it shouldn't be an issue, but any team that's just been outfought and outplayed at home by the bottom of the table side and has lost to all three promoted teams during an 'easy' start to the season is playing with fire if they put someone in charge who has zero experience of the league.

Doesn't mean pushing the Big Sam button or sending for Tony Pulis, but we no longer have the luxury of taking too big a gamble in my view.
