B-more Mag Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 I'd take Martinez. But the Diego version, not the Roberto version. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm yet to see a single post lamenting the club for failing to attract Emery. It's all discussion over how it got leaked and whether or not we should put up with Howe or Martinez for a bit.

The Prophet Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 So if the Athletic are to be believed, we should have Howe in pretty sharpish. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
HaydnNUFC Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 What's happened to Fonseca and Favre btw? Feels strange to have the remaining 2 choices as Emery and Howe. FWIW, Howe isn't my first choice by any means, I just generally resent the 'look at the outcome, forget the context' narrative that is so ingrained in football analysis in this country across the board and imo that's being applied when looking at Howe. I don't think it'd be a disaster but it's far from the best appointment we could make. I think we can all agree that this manager hunt has been a total shambles. I'm hoping that the owners learn but given they already have previous for leaking stories that ended up going to ratshit, I dunno. We need people in. Now. It going on any longer increases our chances of going down. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Might as well throw Manuel Pellegrini's name in. He has done it before with Man City and is a fairly big name in World football. At 68, he is probably not looking long term anyway.

mighty__mag Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) I guess you have to start somewhere, City had Mark Hughes, before appointing Mancini. If it ends up being a gap filler, like Howe, we stay up, then target better managers next season. I'm starting to think they look like mugs, bringing in no footballing hierarchy immediately, but, keeping on Charnley like he's got any football know how,the guy came to us with zero football background.

KaKa Posted November 3, 2021 Share Posted November 3, 2021 (edited) Wow, this is wild. Can't wait to see what happens next If Howe comes in I'll get behind him. His next job was always going to be the one to see what he was really made of, so if he does join here's hoping he ends up as more of a Rodgers or Potter. Be good if we also get a quality DOF that can support him, as I think he would benefit massively from that kind of setup. Some growing pains at the minute but genuinely still excited to be moving on from the previous era, which has left us in such a terrible state that so much needs sorting.
