steve_69 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I'd take a punt on Benitez. He'll be out of a job in the summer and I reckon he'd take it. Proven pedigree, decent football etc. Bit of a cunt mind but i'd let that slide Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cajun Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Ketsbaia is still the one for me, family love Newcastle, he knows about the club/fans, passionate and has a very good record in all the managerial jobs he has had so far. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TaylorJ_01 Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Given Benitez's history of squad over-rotation it makes me think he's very concerned about the conditioning of his players. Would be nice if he could kick-start a new fitness philosophy at the club. I'm warming to the idea of Benitez, a lot. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Coaching/Off the Field wise I'll take him, managerial wise he's awful imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NUFC_Chris Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Rene Girard? Or is he a bit too old now? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Rene Girard? Or is he a bit too old now? Still got about 10 years left in the game I'd say. He says he's been learning English too. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Doctor Zaius Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Ketsbaia is still the one for me, family love Newcastle, he knows about the club/fans, passionate and has a very good record in all the managerial jobs he has had so far. Definitely one for the future. Would like him to take a bigger club job first though. Was bizzarely sacked at Olympiacos but worked miricles with Georgia and Famagusta.

Mole_Toonfan Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Rene Girard? Or is he a bit too old now? Not really, Sir Bobby was 66 when he was hired him in 99 and Girard is 59 his age shouldn't be a barrier what so ever. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen his record, decent? Lost 9 games out of 108 in charge of Anorthosis, won 5 out of 6 with Olympiakos without conceding a goal (yet was sacked) and doing fine with Georgia.

TRon Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 I would have thought most people's main question would be about football philosophy rather than achievements. Maybe not achievements, but winning football. The best teams play passing football but they can defend when they need to as well. That's what I would look for.

LRD Posted April 22, 2013 Share Posted April 22, 2013 Auclair's just tweeted saying that Montanier is in talks with Montpellier about succeeding Girard. Montpellier confirms Jean Fernandez to take over Rene Girard as manager in the summer. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still only 45 too so plenty of years and learning in him. He also hinted at being Newcastle manager in 2008 so there was interest. Can't see compensation being much if anything (not sure what contract he is on at Georgia). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
