Do the maths Matty. Who else are we going to appoint?
Nuno - interviewed and we decided to swerve due to his demands
Favre - Gone to CP
Conte - Never in a million years
Martinez - Will take Belgium to WC next year
Loew - Been international manager for about 17 years - would never be able to transition to club football in the PL
Gattuso - Too inexperienced and volatile (big risk)
Fonseca - Nope. Not interested in coming to UK due to tax implications
Galtier - Gone to Nice
Howe - Too much of a risk for the board
Potter - contracted to Brighton - following the Sliva incident we have probably been warned off approaches to in-contract managers in the PL
Rangnick - Never on the boards radar
Ferguson - Too inexperienced (big risk)
So who does that leave?
Benitez
Favre and Galtier are only going to Palace and Nice because our board were too damn inept at their jobs to employ them first??
Lille wanted 10mil Euros compensation for which Nice are reportedly only paying 2-3mil. We could've offered more.
We apparently interviewed Rangnick, would've been a far better option than Benitez.
It's not a case of all the good ones weren't available. They WERE available.
Moshiri is just a sh*thouse.
