Minhosa Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Realistically we're looking at: Benitez Martinez MON? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Eddy Chibas Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Glad to see Rudi Garcia on the list. He's coped well despite have been gutted in the transfer market - lost quite a few key players in the space of two seasons. Rate him as a coach & developer of players with technical excellence.

Guest Craig-NUFC Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Think Rafa will be a tad bit out of our price range. Probably earns more than our highest paid player. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's actually my first choice not because he's French either i just rate him really highly for what we require. Can't see him coming here though.

jdckelly Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 the issue with Rafa would be he is of the opinion he should go straight into a champions league job Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanji Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 A manager who has the bollocks to not shy from Man City (a), Benfica (h) or our derby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 The problem with Rafa is that he's also a negative manager and he has a huge ego and lashes out at fans for criticising him. Not a good fit in my opinion. Any manager who has a history of defensive football should be ruled out immediately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I'd take managers with histories of defensive football as long as they were good at it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Laurent Blanc Nah he's just as clueless tactically and as much of a coward as Pardew is. I'd take managers with histories of defensive football as long as they were good at it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GeordieT Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 I don't think the board have the courage to go for an up and coming European manager - or someone like Rafa who might ask questions of them. That's what scares me about any appointment, would end up being someone safe and English. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
S.S.R. Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 We should look at some up-and-coming managers from the Championship. That fella Bruce looks like he's doing well at the moment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldtype Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 The last time we had to make a managerial appointment the board had a toxic reputation for undermining their managers and not supporting them in the transfer market. Hopefully this has changed given how they backed Pardew to the hilt this year. May enable us to make a better appointment. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dinho lad Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 Laurent Blanc Temuri Ketsbaia Blanc is as negative as Pardew. The mentality of that French side when they played against England at the Euros was as bad, if not worse, as anything that Pardew has come-up with here. They didnt look bothered about it winning it at the end...... I think they thought they would top that group easily. Cunts. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
themanupstairs Posted April 14, 2013 Share Posted April 14, 2013 There really is no one obvious out there. We'd have to take a punt on someone young and upcoming. Benitez is pretty much the only one I would take from the "obvious" options. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I remember very similar things being said of Mancini when his name was strongly linked around the time we sacked Souness & Roeder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
