Guest dover Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Hes been here in Dubai doing the soccer circus for last few days, everytime he was asked about management he said he had no plans. When asked about NUFC said he`d love to go back if the club was sold. Does that make me an ITK? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Daily Mail yesterday: Fallen German giants Hamburg are offering Kevin Keegan a sensational return to management. The ambitious Bundesliga side are still reeling after failing to reach the Europa League final at their own stadium and finishing a poor seventh in the league. Chairman Bernd Hoffman wants to restore the club to its glorious past and sees former star Keegan, who took them to the 1980 European Cup final against Nottingham Forest, as the man to take the club forward. Hamburg sacked coach Bruno Labbadia last season just three days before the second leg of their Europa League semi-final against Fulham. They had been humiliated 5-1 by Hoffenheim in a league game which effectively ended their hopes of European qualification and the subsequent loss to Fulham denied them a showpiece final at their own Nordbank Arena. Former Tottenham coach Ricardo Moniz has been put in temporary charge but Hoffman and his board believe Keegan, who scored 32 goals in 90 games for them between 1977 and 1980, can lift the club and the fans. The former Newcastle manager, who is fluent in German, has been working as a pundit with ESPN but has made no secret of his desire to find a new challenge. He has privately admitted that if Newcastle owner Mike Ashley had compromised over his role in player recruitment, he may still have been at St James’ Park. Instead the spectacular fall-out led to Keegan securing a £2million pay-off for constructive dismissal. However, Hamburg now want to give him the freedom to create a side capable of challenging Bayern Munich for the title and qualify for Europe. They are ready to bankroll rebuilding with a transfer budget of around £25m and will offer players decent contracts, as they demonstrated last season with their capture of Ruud van Nistelrooy. Keegan would also find himself face to face with another former England manager — Steve McClaren at Wolfsburg. As a player, Keegan helped Hamburg win their first Bundesliga title in 19 years after joining from Liverpool and Hoffman hopes he can have the same effect this time around. Hamburg fans, who dubbed him ‘Mighty Mouse’, fete him in the same way he is adored on Tyneside and club insiders say it is all down to whether Keegan believes in the project and is ready to abandon business interests in England. Certainly, Hamburg believe it is time for the Messiah to return home. Source Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Said Keegan would take the job back in an instant if it was under different ownership. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 He'd quit within a year. Probably an argument over the club's menu. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cronky Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 It would be even sillier than Ashley's decision to re-appoint him here. Being a hero as a player 30 years ago doesn't make him the best person for that job. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

David28 Posted May 24, 2010 Share Posted May 24, 2010 Would love it. HSV is the club in the Bundesliga I like most and with Keegan becoming manager it probably would make me love them. Edit: But somehow doubt he would go there as they don't have big money and he certainly would not be allowed to make the transfers. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
