SUPERTOON

Emery would be a huge statement appointment, not your typical appointment in this position so would show they aren’t being swayed by the typical needing a British manager narrative. Massively excited if we get him.

Well of course it would but there isn’t a chance Jones is getting another 8 games. So I ask you again if we get a top class manager in this week will they have taken too long ?

Before his spurs spell I would have agreed, I just think he looks a beaten man that needs a break for a bit.

It can be argued against, if at the end of the week we end up with a top class manager would it have taken too long ?

Because they have the infrastructure and players to go out and get the best name available where as we are rebuilding a whole club from top to bottom and have wheelie bins for ice baths ?

Think he might need a bit of time off before coming into another job. Not the man we need right now IMO.

Take a look at Spurs next 6 games they play 4 of the teams who I would expect to be down there with us this season so this is a good move for us as well

Not really, we will have spent weeks getting to this stage on who they think is best and he will not have been included

Hope they get Martinez

His sacking should help us when they play any of our relegation rivals

Caulkin again referencing how out of the blue and off guard the takeover caught the owners. He said they where ready for it to go through in the spring and even had bee staff in place house hunting up here ready to go. Just shows how unexpected the takeover was and might ease a few minds.

Hope you are right about Eddie Howe

Especially when you consider we don’t have many players away on international duty either so it’s almost 2 full weeks for a new man to come in and work with the squad

Caulkin has wrote a good piece this morning. Said movement on the new manager this week and the board are aware of the urgency needed now to get the manager appointed. Did say Jones could be in charge on Saturday but sounds as though he thinks a new manager will be in this week.

No way conte is going to Spurs with the Man Utd job close to coming available

Who are these names and reports ?

I know odds tend to mean nothing but the Emery one is interesting because he’s hardly been strongly linked like the others and his name hasn’t been mentioned for about a week. Probably means nowt but interesting he’s favourite.

I thought I was negative till I read this thread today ?

In talks with the club

Said from day one when the takeover was done I think Emery is the ideal most realistic candidate we could get.

How do you know we can’t when we haven’t got one yet ?

Yes please
