Ryder is a mentalist but if we were ran properly (I know we aren't) and correctly then we should be trying to lure Klopp!

 

He said he wants to manage in England!

 

Chelsea, Arsenal, Man City, Spurs and Everton - don't need a new manager

Man City aren't keen apparently

The Dippers might fancy a change

 

He'll probably end up at West Ham and we won't even try!

 

He'd be perfect to re-energise our support and get many people interested again but it won't happen under the fat wanker!

 

He's bit like Keegan IMO and he would be a perfect fit for a well-ran NUFC!

Don't know where this proof is he's some keegan type romantic because he was Dortmund tbh.

 

Personally if City was the best option and it probably will be, he wouldn't think twice about it. Not deluded enough to think otherwise.

 

Eh! City apparently are NOT interested as I said above! Do you think that I expect him to turn down Man City for us?! It's a bit early to be off your nut mind!

Why shouldn't the local rags be challenging the club to make an ambitious appointment?

 

Far prefer that to them sitting back and peddling the line that it's Carver or McClaren. The more pressure on the club to make a statement signing or lose even more support, the better as far as I can see.

 

Gan on Lee. :clap2: :lol:

The club have given a 'no comment' when asked about the Paco rumours according to Ryder.

 

What about Klopp? Surely he asked about him too?

Jémez is certainly a romantic. He just won't negotiate or compromise the style, no matter what, no matter where. He'll play the same against Almería than against Barça. He won't make defensive sub to protect a 1-0. He's often criticized for that, as big teams routinely rip Rayo a new arsehole; but I admire this kind of commitment, to come to the Camp Nou and say "f*** this 10-men behind ball bollocks, we can play as good as you". If you want your players to buy into an idea, you have to embody it. And he has the results to back up what he's doing.

 

There was this period during his second season at Rayo; they were rock-bottom, 8 points off 17th IIRC. Media were all "he should change his tactics, grind out some points". But he just wouldn't compromise; "We don't know how to play that way [defensively]" - he would say - "If we play like we believe we're going to lose the game, we will lose the game". Ultimately they clicked again and went on a run, leaving the team comfortably midtable.

I'm going to post Sid Lowe's article on Jémez from last season and leave it for today. I promise!

Even when Rayo were a disaster, Jémez had his defenders. Off the pitch, that is. Last season, only two teams in Europe had the ball more than Rayo did: Barcelona and Bayern Munich. Early this season, when Rayo played Barcelona, they had more possession than them, the first team to manage it in 316 games.

 

Sitting back was no guarantee, quite the opposite. "If, as well as being small, you're a coward, you're going to get a beating from all sides," the coach told Panenka magazine. So Rayo went for teams. Only Madrid and Barcelona have attempted or completed more passes than them, only four clubs have put the ball in the opposition area more and only six teams have created more chances. Rayo have scored more than half of the league. Their goalkeeper has only made one save more than Real Madrid's. Levante's Keylor Navas has made almost twice as many.

 

"The fans gave us everything and expected nothing in return and when someone does that they've won you for ever. One of the key reasons we have recovered is them. If we play football it is for them, so that they can enjoy football. If not, this game has no meaning," Jémez said.

 

:smitten: :fwap:

I don't think Jémez is the kind of rumor the club would engineer to trick fans; he's largely unknown in England I'm sure, and I can't see regular fans salivating about the manager of Rayo Vallecano.

 

Now, if some of the local press started to talk of somebody like, I don't know, Klopp, that would be a bit more suspicious...

Jemez sounds like a good fit for us. Try to win every game, look to score goals and entertain. Not sure at all this fits into Ashley's remit though, he's only concerned with comfortably surviving in this league.

Perfect fit for Newcastle fans=No-no for Ashley
