Managers within our reach

[stannyr]

Yeh, well said. I think it’s more pertinent now than ever that Silva was essentially hired before Brands.

Do you not think Brands was involved in that decision then?

Personally? If he was it’ll have been with reluctance.

Never ever feel sorry for the bookies.
The most vile and corrupt organisations of all.

It was a tongue in cheek remark.

While Brands didn't appoint Silva, and even if he did have to reluctantly agree, im sure he has had plenty of time to tell Moshiri he has made a mistake, dont forget Brands rep is also on the line here, and Moshiris money.

 

[Loz]

The obvious retort to that being that he himself was unemployed when Wolves appointed him, thus rendering your entire argument redundant.

Ah, but I did say “unemployed for a reason”. He finished second in the Portuguese league and was then relieved if his duties. Perhaps a bit harsh considering that Porto hadn’t won their league for three or four seasons prior to that.
Also finished fourth in la liga with Valencia and was named la liga’s Manager of the month a few times.
I’m not saying he’d be perfect but I rather doubt he’d be any worse than what we now have.

Yeh it just seemed weird. Mosh had a hard on for Silva since Koeman went but then hired a DOF afterwards.

It’d be the most Moshiri thing in the world for him to sack Silva and go all out for that Nuno fella.

 

[Tel001]

A manager 9th in the table and you;re asking for him to be sacked...sorry, who's looking daft?

Mate the league standard is crap and the fact we are 9th proves that. This is the worst side we have had since Walter Smith days and we are not oiching distance of Europe

Valente?

 

[Tel001]

A good few. And I dont care. This season is about experimentation. We start for real next season when he has a few more of his own players in the first team. Then we judge.

Make no mistake: the kneejerkers will not get their way stamping their feet for a sacking. It's too costly and it makes no sense.

Experimentation? He hasn’t experimented , he’s done the same crap tactics and conceded soft goals just like each of his other prem clubs.

 

[polish]

Hmm, not so sure.

Van Bronckhorst is probably one of the most promising young managers about. Ironically, he's leaving Feyenoord come the end of the season.

He was Koeman’s assistant at Feyenoord to make things more interesting.

 

[Tel001]

Id get Moyesy back at this rate hes been the only good manager since Kendal.

Big joe mate ... common

When Fulham go down, go get Ranieri. Proven in the Prem.

Got a raw deal at Chelsea, I quote:

In Ranieri's four seasons, Chelsea improved their points total season on season. The core of the Chelsea team which won two Premier League titles under Mourinho, including John Terry, William Gallas, Wayne Bridge, Claude Makélélé and Frank Lampard were all brought to Chelsea or nurtured by Ranieri. During his final months at Chelsea, Ranieri also identified Didier Drogba and Arjen Robben as players Chelsea should sign, both of whom went on to become key players at the club.

Done the business with Leicester and then got a raw deal, arrived at Fulham too late in my opinion.

Honestly some people on here are just masochists.
