Ask any footballer if he wants to lose a million a year and see what he says.

Nothing wrong with Eric Black. He's not being our manager is he? He's a coach. We need to get behind the new set up.

Maybe Claude has a ruthless streak seeing as he's been called the Roy Keane of Monaco. It appears that the players have been consulted before a manager was appointed, maybe they liked the sound of him. Hopefully our fans will give him a chance before binning him off,

Black speaks French and is probably a decent coach but not management style. Happy with this, lets get cracking!!

I don't think they'd take pay cuts. They're earning a decent wage and they with within their means, even if it seems excessive wages to us they would have huge mortgages and whatnot. Unfortunately players are happy to sit and take their money now, how many do we see taking pay cuts?

Surprised at 3 years, thought it might have been 5 for the 5 year plan, maybe it's a case of see how he does in the first year and offer another couple if he does well.

Hope Powell would do better than Roy.

Originally opted for Pards but I wouldn't be adverse to Wenger or Pellegrini or Big Sam. Would like a bit of passion on the side lines not some pathetic animal that looks like he might be run over with his resignation letter in his pocket.

Who would have been your choice that would have made the football important?

Double post

I don't know what Wenger's brother looks like.

Not sure about the stupid little collar with button. They'll look like Gavin out of Gavin and Stacey when people look uncomfortable with their top button done up.

He's gone back to Palace true and he's playing pretty well. He hasn't been called up to the England squad though like he was before he left for United and not everyone is raving about it him anymore. Could work in the long run though.

Not a massive step up but different and I expect Everton will pay more wages than us as proved with silly money luring Koeman away.

Exactly. I can't see it.

No it doesn't but you can say that about all the clubs in the prem. I expect we will spend a fair chunk though.

We have money to spend but to be honest I'd love to see us get to the knock out phase of the Europa and so if that means 10th positional and a good run in the cups I'd have it.

There's no chance Morgan will want a backwards step to come to us. He's moved on and we should move on.

Lets get him in, get some decent players in and look forward to the season. Quite excited about this season myself. Could do without any more player sales though.

Apart from those ones?

Most definitely this.

I think it's because they are amazing and nothing to do with the last game of the season.

Lighten up. They don't have to say anything, it's a bit of fun.

Has he signed already and it's being announced tomorrow morning?

Another alter ego of Saint Charlie?
