Guest SLK Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Van Gaal would be a good one...Hiddink if he decides he had enough with Russia...Though I wouldn't be unhappy if it was Sven or Sam... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bodson Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Gerrard houllier is the perfect option for us and I do think we can attract him. He knows the premiership and he is a football brain. He can also modernize Newcastle and he has great contacts and would definately attract players to come here. Other names I would consider Van Gaal T.Schaaf (Done wonders with Werder Bremen) M. Laudrup (Would make us play attractive football) Scolari Big Sam will be a new Souness!!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 I remember suggesting Hughes some months ago - and was told he'd not come because he's biding his time at Blackburn until the Old Trafford seat becomes available, which struck me as solid logic. With Ferguson saying today he's going to stay around for a few more years, I began to wonder if Sparky was a realistic option? But then I remembered he has built up a solid team at Blackburn, and what's more it's still a work-in-progress, which makes me think that him moving to St James' Park would be a sideways step at best. I'd be more than happy for Big Sam to take over - I have faith that he can make us into a tough-to-beat team, moving in the same direction... He might not be in the Ancelotti or Ferguson mould, but he's possibly our best option at this juncture Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
eaststar Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 As I said - Big Sam doesn't convince me as the man to take us forward significantly. Juande Ramos for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
samag Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Out of the obvious available candidates, only Sven has the right CV. Makes no difference, in 12 Months time we'll have several hundred morons on here demanding his head when we win f*** all very true Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dragon55544 Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 As I said - Big Sam doesn't convince me as the man to take us forward significantly. Juande Ramos for me Tbf i dont think we are in a position to attract a manager like Ramos who is currently fighting Real and Barca for the league title, He said he wanted to manage in the Premiership 1 day but i imagine he would want to manage a team capable of winning things. Where has this hatred of SA come from? It wasnt to long ago and Bolton were 2 points behind Arsenal fighting for a CHL place, Every thing i have read about SA and his attention to detail has been very impressive. His transfer dealings have been very impressive. The only thing going against him is the style of football but from what i have seen they aint no where near as bad as the papers make out, The style aint much different from Liverpool and Chelsea. If we are winning im pretty sure fans will go home happy. People talking about the Keegan days and Newcastle the entertainers need to wake up and realise its 2007.

The College Dropout Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Jurgen Klinnsman or failing him Claudio Ranieri Jurgen Klinnsman just because of 6 or so games in the WC? Hasn't Ranieri gone to 3 or 4 clubs since he left Chelsea? Doesn't that tell you something? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Karjala Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 Alladyce - cant see him being a success here Hughes - cant see him being a success here S Eriksson - Only come for the money I'd want Van Gaal, Koeman, Ramos, Mourinho. ie a TOP manager, not somebody who's biggest achievement is gettin into the top half.

Pretty much sums up my sentiments exactly. I don't think there is a "hatred" for Sam...but I think someone described it on soccernet.com well - he just doesn't have the "factor x" that the top teams look for. In my eyes appointing Sam would be like appointing Curbishley, Pardew or Harry Redknapp. They are decent or good managers - but not TOP managers. I'm hoping for Ramos...but I'd be happy with SGE tbh Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Raconteur Posted May 7, 2007 Share Posted May 7, 2007 No one has yet asked the question, what will Fred do if Big Sam turns us down? I dread to think. Simple - hire Coleman in August Okay, so that's the absolute worst case... But you're right to fear the future if (for one reason or another) Allardyce doesn't come. The list of realistic alternatives is disturbingly short. From Geordie Messiah's uberpoll maybe half a dozen are realistic options - and maybe three or four of those realistic options would be utter disasters. I hope Shepherd plays the media game a bit smarter this time though... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
