Clement Lenglet linked… http://sportwitness.co.uk/newcastle-directly-asked-barcelona-defender-name-like-lot-gift-new-manager/

Also signed Dinos Mavropanos, Henrikh Mkhitaryan, Bernd Leno, Sokratis, Lucas Torreira, Matteo Guendouzi and Stephan Lichtsteiner for Arsenal…

I’m fairness, although we’re all sure that Rafa wouldn’t, Rodgers has walked out of jobs previously. Depends what the draw for him is, I guess.

If we can’t get Rodgers, then it’s Ten Hag for me. I’m put off Favre by posters on here who saw first hand what he did during games, and heard how he couldn’t handle ASM.

Without the infrastructure (training facilities, medical facilities, players accommodation….and canteen), I think some top managers may feel hamstrung that they’ll have to wait a few years in order to reach 100% potential. obviously once those are built and in play, the sky will be the limit, with the financial support and backing.

Can’t personally see it happening but I think Rodgers would be a perfect fit to develop the club (players and infrastructure) before we can move for a Conte type manager in the next 3-5 years to develop us in Euro competitions.

Nagelsmann. But he’s spoken for.

Maybe Luke’s hedging his bets and stating four months for positions to be filled, as he’s hoping Mauriss is gonna make an offer to the Saudis…

He stated in Aug 2020 that the consortium had made an offer for him before it all fell apart, and that they had informed him that they also wanted an Italian manager- Spalletti or Allegri.

Better not be four months before any proper firing is done. Starting with Luke’s best mate who’s contributed enormously to this shitshow.

Out of contract soon, isn’t he? Hence our interest.

Only been at one club for three years (Juve). Usually lasts two before he moves.

Isn’t it that every day he wakes, he’s still got three years left? Maybe the 8m is for all the Steves to go?

I guess whatever they give him will be more than he’s on at Ajax.

Ten Hag? Rumours are he’s off to Barca. I’d have him at us though, for sure.

They did…but they weren’t in 19th place at the time, and Hughes was also a better manager than our present one.

Not to mention he had utter prick Michael Owen refusing to play in case he got injured.

She’s spoken to him lots prior to the takeover, and he was at Jesmond Dene house with her when it all got signed off (I think I saw?). She’s also been in communication with Keegan too.

Umtiti is somewhat injury prone. Rest I’d go with.

Yep! I remember him back then. Apparently he’s turned into the next super South American manager.

Just been reading up about him, and would love Marcelo Gallardo to make his move to Europe with us. Top manager, won everything he can in South America, linked with the likes of Barca. He can be our new Poch.

Billy Gilmour please.

Wish we were 17th….

Not if that tweet earlier was right in that he won’t leave the south coast and is waiting for the Southampton job…

It’s sad, but the current location severely limits and inhibits any further growth, both in terms of capacity and also revenue. Unless the current stadium is demolished and a new one is rebuilt from the ground up, a stadium in another location is going to have to be the way forward in the next decade.
