STM Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 I can entirely believe that we aren't pursuing anyone currently in employment. That rules out most of our list. Favre would still seem a decent bet but there's still something that makes me think we might punch above our weight. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Is there any suggestion that they'll sack him? Seems a crazy notion. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andy Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Pretty much anybody other than Fonseca or Ten Hag would be a bit underwhelming, which is an absolutely mental thing to type given what we've been through, but there it is. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Means ‘surprising’ or ‘unconventional’, that no one will have thought of or mentioned, in this instance, like a Gallardo, Almeida, Crespo or suchlike.

McCormick Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 It won’t be Ten Hag, sadly. If Fonseca wants it we should just give him the job already; every day that goes by I get more worried we’ll end up with Lampard. Who, as I’ve made abundantly clear on here, would be an absolutely disastrous appointment. He’s legitimately as bad as Bruce in terms of coaching ability.

That's a terrible approach to decision making. The bloke is going to be in charge for several years, I'd rather take another week and make sure we explore every option. Besides which, we will get pumped off Chelsea anyway. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big River Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Fonseca for me. He'll already be weeks ahead of any other candidate (specifically those employed) in terms of preparation, which could be crucial. it's already been reported that he's been formulating plans for our upcoming fixtures, and I wouldn't be surprised if he's already sat down with his coaches and analysed the shit out of our games this season to understand what he's got to work with.

I agree, I am convinced he is the right man. Hell see it as a long term project as well. I've watched so many things on him and the way he prepares the team and his attention to detail is second to none. I'm sure he has probably already watched all of this seasons and probably last seasons games. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheInfiniteOdyssey Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Wenger would be class. There is a (slight) connection in that he's currently leading FIFA's proposals to establish a biennial World Cup. The concept of which, was first suggested to FIFA by Saudi Arabia. I would be surprised if PIF intermediaries haven't at least sounded out the admittedly remote possibility. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strawberry Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Wenger would be amazing if we can pull it off. Worth the wait if possible. We will comfortably finish mid table under him even this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
