Lowensda Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 I think De Boer is more of the Martinez mold tbh. Exactly this. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lowensda Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 (edited) yes i don't want him. i keep reading how tactically inept he is and how he needs a sporting director and he's cold as ice and a hard man. i could live with one of those but all of those and i'm wondering if he's any different than martinez. at least RM could pick a transfer.

markjazzbassist Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Oumar likes this. well played. but i would like to be fair to the man and say he was very good in the transfer market. sure there was Niasse, Lacina Traore, Mcgeady, Kone, Alcaraz, etc. But he did some great moves with Romelu, Barry, Mccarthy (first year he was worth it), Gerry, Lennon, Funes Mori, Besic, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lowensda Posted May 23, 2016 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Let's be fair Martinez's transfers good/bad, were about 50/50, which isn't great! markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quinn31 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Let's be fair Martinez's transfers good/bad, were about 50/50, which isn't great! In his defense, the signings that didn't pan out were usually his less costly signings. No one knows if Niasse will pan out, but if he fails, he would be the big exception here. Alcaraz was a free, McGeady was very cheap, Kone wasn't very expensive. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was moyes any better or also 50/50? Dean good point he was a loan and did get a goal. But some on here think it was a bad talent evaluation.

Finn balor Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 Spoke to a guy today who said he was at the Norwich game in a corporate hospitality do and he was sitting with Kenwrights brother Tom I think he said. Kenwrights brother was telling him they have a shortlist of five managers. markjazzbassist 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 I think De Boer is more of the Martinez mold tbh. Yep. Been reading up on him and it's been a bit worrying how he seems to stick to the same formation and same slow passing style. Put me off a bit really.

MC11 Posted May 23, 2016 Report Share Posted May 23, 2016 And also how he insist on playing through the wings with no effort to attack through the middle. That would be refreshing as we haven't seen our wings utilised for 18 months. Do you know a team called Man Utd? And I guy called Sir Alex. Built the most successful English club based on "wingers". It works. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kankurette Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Favre's got a job now and Koeman's out, isn't he? So that's Pellegrini, de Boer and Emery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Makis Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Koeman is out when he signs a new contract with Soton. Until then it's all talk. But yeah, it looks like the other three candidates are the ones you listed. There are a few good candidates that have not been linked with the club who are out of job, tho.

Looks like its going to be down to either De Boer, Pelligrini or.... Moyes.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Newty82 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Emery says he wants to stay Sevilla. Looks like its going to be down to either De Boer, Pelligrini or.... Moyes.... I'm thinking it's only De Boer or Pellegrini left. And Moyes. The fact he has steered away from jobs such as Celtic and Villa really worries me. Please no.

Hafnia Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Emery says he wants to stay Sevilla. Looks like its going to be down to either De Boer, Pelligrini or.... Moyes.... Said he's "happy at sevilla"... to me that's not ruling himself out. He may be but based on history how many players and managers moved after that?

Paddock Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Moyes wont come back, I think if there's been any contact between the two parties it'll be for advice on the new manager from him. No way will we re hire Moyes imo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Romey 1878 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) Emery says he wants to stay Sevilla. Looks like its going to be down to either De Boer, Pelligrini or.... Moyes.... With those three looking like our only options left I'm going to be left feeling much like we did when we hired Martinez. I'm not even contemplating Moyes returning, but I don't want or not want the other two. I'll just be thinking "let's see".

Romey 1878 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Who do you want Mark? Koeman has been the one I wanted all along but that's looking very unlikely now. I don't think De Boer or Pellegrini would be bad choices, they just don't do it for me. I'd probably want Pellegrini before De Boer though. Moyes... well that would just be a nightmare scenario.

Newty82 Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 Koeman would be a top pick. Currently in talks over a new contract...let's see what happens there over the coming days. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DownUnderToff Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 (edited) Just spitballing...what do people think of that Jorge Jesus character. From what I've heard/read, he sounds a bit of an eccentric genius/crazy person. Huge ego complex, but...

Makis Posted May 25, 2016 Report Share Posted May 25, 2016 My reservation with him is he hasn't managed outside of Portugal, and as you say, he's an egomaniac. Jorge Sampaoli might be an interesting choice, tho. At least fans should like his style. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
