Re: New Manager Poll
None of those make me stand up and go wow then again I havent seen any of their teams barring one or two performances (with the exception of Hoddle and Capello).
Im going to go on a hunch here and say Yakin simply because he is someone that plays good football (based on Basle against us) and is youngish which im sure fits in with Levys plan about having someone stick around and putting in place a structure and implementing a long term plan.

I picked Lucien Favre because I rate him. He is a nice chap and a clever manager. However, I don't think we would quit Gladbach in midseason. And even if he did, I don't think he would fulfil the expectations of the board. Qualifying for the Champions League against at least four competitors with twice the budget is simply a hell of task.

Re: New Manager Poll
So if we sign, say, Otto Rehhagel to be our boss and he makes Lamela play as a centre-back and tapes Townsend to the top of Ade to create an eleven foot tall monster we can hurl long balls at for 89 minutes....would that fit into our long term plan if he bought young players that appreciated in value?
Because at the moment, I feel that is our only long-term plan: buy players that appreciate in value. Any semblance of creating an attacking or possession playing style was tossed out by a combination of our renowned twitchiness and AVB's obvious ineptitude at forging a system quickly. And I'm not sure where we go from here in terms of who we get and who we buy for that new man in order to enable him to cook up another system, another style of play, another few months of transition. Sigh.

Re: New Manager Poll
Barca play the Ajax style pretty much. Cryuff effectively duplicated the Ajax style and academy at La Masia and each subsequent manager tweaked it until you get what you see today.
Guardiola is widely accepted as adding the defensive nous to the Ajax template. A lot of it robbed from the Italians actually, 3-1 rule etc.

Re: New Manager Poll
Me too undecided.. might be because right now its all a bit meh and I don't care.
Think I would like to bring in Ossie just for the crack and have the 5 strikers for the rest of the season. Even Maradona just for the hell of it. The media coverage of Maradona would be fricken immense. :lol:

Re: New Manager Poll
de Boer is the best and most realistic option. Plays decent football, experienced at working on a sensible budget, big name, lots of European experience, lots of experience at a club which bring players through.....the only really thing you could say against him is that he hasn't managed in a big league. I would go for him

Re: New Manager Poll
Maradona would be an awful manager but would masvley increase our profile, especially in South America, possibly bringing a lot of new support, media attention and attracting massive name players.

I do not really disagree with that at all, but the facts show it rarely happens any other way. And that is why i am gutted he has been sacked, we were supposed to be planning for the future and trying to develop players ourselves. Because we were given a lot of money for Bale it enabled us to go out and buy ( supposedly) some of the best talent in Europe, we gave a young manager who had plans to build something and we all hoped it would happen.
Now to most fans it was never going to happen overnight and we were going to have to remain patience, however in todays football some fans demand instant sucsess ( they see teams like Chelski and ****ty do it) they play games on puters and think its easy to win titles on there so it must be easy in the real world. So what happens? 18 months into the new manager results are poor and all the good will gets thrown out with the bath water and the boo boys start, and the worse thing about it is the board lose their balls and replace yet another manager.
And the circle starts once again.

avb made his own bed by sticking to his Plan A.
we did ever so well but since when has a club lost 5-0 and 6-0 in a month?
he could've reverted to 4-4-2 with 2 DM's and a lower line, and introduced more creative players but didn't.
overall i'm sad to see him go.but with the recent results and what seems to be non-progress, I have to admit that I too was getting impatient and losing faith in AVB. Nevertheless when his Plan A does work, it does make us look like a side thats hard to break down, and potentially a winning side.
i imagine though if we had coentrao, moutinho and ferndinho we would be scoring much more goals under AVB's system.

That will be the same Gomes who virtually single-handedly got us into the Champions League? The one who made a string of amazing saves when the pressure was on against such oppo as the Goons and Chelski? If I have misunderstood your comment, I apologize mate, just wanted to be sure people remembered some of Heurelho's finest moments...
