I don't want a man who looks like he eats crayons as our next manager

140 years of tradition down the drain if that happens.

 

[BiggyRat]

Nah, not coming. He's into WWE now.

HARD SWERVE

The last thing we need is another Dutchman who values holding midfielders and sideways passing.

The game has passed him by.

Not chance

It's not even just his (lack of) longevity. He seems to rub people up the wrong way, so when he does leave it's not always a better place than when he joined. He's had tremendous success, but I'd argue that many of his clubs have been in a position where success is fairly guaranteed.

That's not to say that Wenger is going to be around for 5+ years either, but I think he could potentially put us back on an even keel again before we get someone that could build a dynasty.

I think he can be classed as a footballing "dinosaur" now too.

The younger more dynamic managers seem to adopt a deadly fast front line hitting teams on the break. But Van Gaals, like Mourinho's, the boring approach was succesful maybe ten years ago.

Ha ha ha Butt-head.

A few people have been saying this today, he’s been “made an offer he can’t refuse.”

It’s either Arsenal or us.

Oh look who started the thread...

Definitely not a man utd supporter @Soap.

Get in the bin with you.

 

[Efcjake]

You've just made that up.

What? That he's an Evertonian or that LVG is coming here?

You can argue that in 3 of his previous jobs (Barca, Bayern, Man U - I don't know too much about AZ) that he laid foundations for Rijkaard, Guardiola and Mourinho to build on.

Klinsmann left a mess at Bayern and he came and sorted it out, won the league and took them to a CL final. Moyes left a mess at Man U and he improved them, got them in the top 4 and won the FA Cup.

 

[marmor]

Rather keep sam if I’m honest. And I don’t want him anywhere near the club come June either.

 

[maccavennie]

He was ruthless in The Goonies, could be just what we need.

Who would have thought LVG was the father to Ian Dowie who he kept locked up all those years.

We already have one of those

Trophies in last 3 seasons:

Van Gaal and Mourinho: 1 FA cup, 1 League cup, 1 Europa League

Klopp and Pochettino: 0.
