Jonas Guthrie? Barton Vuckic Xisco Martins Nailed on in 3 years time

I'd love to see Xisco and Oba but it isn't going to happen till next season. Viduka is realistically the only decent option to play with Martins until Owen gets back

Geremi, because I dont despise him quite as much as Butt or Smith

If Grant is the bees knees, dog's bollocks, your chocolate lollipop, the gold pot at the end of the rainbow, and Jah's gift to football management, how comes he's out of a f***ing job then? The Chelsea squad were behind their own near-success. They got to where they did despite of Grant, and not because of him. Did I say any of the above? I said he'd be a great option, considering we have nobody at the club capable of managing a premiership club, and he clearly is

both above points are complete speculation btw, nothing to substanciate them whatsoever

going to be a god

Drogba missed half the season, Lampard was far from his brilliant best, quite remarkable that Grant got them to within a kick of being the champions of Europe. Their football also was pretty damn good to watch btw

From the day Grant got the job onwards, he accumulated more points than a Man U team many rank as the best they've seen in world football for years. Hell of an achievment tbh

Kinnear is a "proven" Premiership manager. Grant is a manager who had one of the world's best squads at his disposal. I'd honestly rather keep Kinnear than try Grant. you're off your fucking head mate. The only thing Kinnear has "proved" in the premiership in the last decade is that he's statistically nufc's worst ever manager bar Ardilles

You look at the performances of the likes of Drogba, Ballack, Terry and Cech in particular in comparison with last season and a pretty telling picture is formed.

with Oba in the team there's always a chance, the Man U and Villa games are ample evidence of that

Aye, should warm that bench nicely whilst Nicky struts his stuff. If Kinnear was in charge i'd put my life on it. But fortunately he isn't

I think we all know what would have happened to be fair, given that we finished on 43 points with him

£13m is a lot of money for someone who isn't the finished article and has had questions about his fitness the last year. missed 6 games in 2008 through injury right? more than that, he didn't start for keegan until the birmingham away match which was 1/2 way through march, i think 6 is probably how many he's missed this season he was away for a while at the ACN

sincerely hope Guthrie's back for this one

Nixon likes to debate

Rather see him with a squad nowhere near as good as Chelsea's first. See your point but he's good with players and good tactically. Basicallly a massive improvement on Kinnear on those attributes alone

Said today he wants to return to premier league management. Snap him up ffs man Mike, just what we need.

Of course he is. Just ask Bobby Robson who tried to bring him here as his no 2 a long time back. He's out of our league now, but that's how the cookie crumbles. Fergie's better imo. In terms of ability, absolutely. What levels the playing field for me is the player attraction Jose brings to the table. More players want to work with Mourinho

love the guy

Riquelme + Martins = goals

This Chris Nathaniel cunt honestly

dont be daft, Kinnear's a grown man and makes his own decisions

at the game and as far away from the rally as possible
