  1. would add currently his contract at Stutgartt runs out next year
  2. Ok am chucking a new name into the mix.. Hannes Wolf Young manager (36), took over at Stutgartt last year and got them promoted to the Bundesliga as champions and is rated up there with Nagglesmann in germany. Worked at Dortmund before that "The 35-year-old and Klopp share many tactical and coaching philosophies. For them, football has to be played fast, with high intensity and emotion. Their coaching styles are similar, they roam the touchline and belt out a near-constant battery of instructions. Wolf's youth teams showed the same strengths as Klopp's Dortmund sides, often overpowering opponents with counter-pressing and transition attacks. " He also has a chapter on youth coaching here in the book - "Creating World Champions: How German Soccer Went from Shambles to Champions" https://books.google.nl/books?id=k30wDQAAQBAJ&pg=PA85&lpg=PA85&dq=hannes+wolf+tactics&source=bl&ots=SF6hVN6ARn&sig=-Al5O4K4uyTvND_NDsGUucqYjfk&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwiOs7TFvcfUAhWPZlAKHQeOD_8Q6AEIXDAI#v=onepage&q&f=false Edit: I have now convinced myself this is the mysterious coach :-)
  3. Martin Schmidt only just got "sacked" from Mainz after avoiding relegation on goal difference https://www.fourfourtwo.com/news/mainz-part-company-head-coach-schmidt
  4. Better let Davis and JWP know this also.
  5. Hearing nothing from the conference but the rumour is Mastercard is about to join the Ethereum Alliance as one of the companies (website error should that they were meant to be joining 2 days ago so maybe a legal pull back). Hold and I am revising my 1st Aug prediction to 600 euro Mastercard rumour
  6. That betting shows no one has any idea
  7. I read that like I was dog the bounty hunter
  8. F*cking hell this transfer market is insane
  9. If they can do this under FFP purely because his mate Alisher Usmanov's company sponsored their training ground (75m) to be called USM Finch Farm then this is making the rules a complete joke, he's basically given them 25m for each letter before Finch Farm. http://www.worldsoccer.com/news/arsenal-shareholder-usmanov-sponsors-everton-training-ground-393890 I welcome Chinese overlords if they can start doing these short of shennigans. I predict Usmanov is taking over Everton by stealh via Moshiri and when they get champions league he will sell out of Arsenal and become the new Everton chairman. Currently he is backing 2 horses.
  10. Well his bro Ronald De Boer definitely rated him at the Noord: "Feyenoord would be wise to do everything to upgrade the contract Clasie and lengthen, so they again can play the price. It is so important for the club. Try to Mister Feyenoord him. Feyenoord played well especially Clasie played a really great match. He captured the ball often, his dribbles were good, his passes knocked, he brought peace and rhythm in his team. It was like a train . " I liked the Mister Feyenoord him hahaha
  11. Nice hard bounce today back to 320 euro today
  12. Sign him purely for the David Luiz hair
  13. Everton spending that Lukaku money before it becomes official on day 1 of preaseaon hence getting their busy done early. I am interested in who they will get as a striker to replace him.
  14. I bought some more when it went down to 230 euro :-)
  15. This was me when I was getting excited that Tuchel could be viable and then "he ruled" himself out.
  16. exactly if he isnt on the training ground then what is he doing exactly given the other stuff tranfsers et al are handled elsewhere.
  17. Well hello there - article from April https://www.thesun.co.uk/sport/football/3340596/mauricio-pochettino-and-i-chatted-tactics-for-hours-using-just-salt-and-pepper-pots-says-alaves-chief-mauricio-pellegrino/ And him wanting to come back to england - May http://www.marca.com/en/football/spanish-football/2017/05/28/592a028be5fdea3e598b4618.html
  18. Well feck it lets see what this summer is gonna bring... New manager drama New players being tapped up drama New owners onboard drama I am gonna propose our close season is more exciting than the football we played last season
  19. Midlands correspondent with Sky Sports, not sure if he is plugged in or just regurgitating what he has heard.
  20. Just thought I would drop in away from the Puel threads and see how everyone has been handling the 11% drop over night ? Looks like money being taken out of Bitcoin is pushin everyone down as well but we seem to of recovered to last Sundays price, a good time to buy I reckon
  21. Would the "Long Term Vision" mentioned here be in line with the monies expected to be available and increase our growth as a club from the Chinese investors? http://www.belfasttelegraph.co.uk/sport/football/premier-league/southampton-search-for-manager-with-shared-longterm-vision-after-sacking-puel-35827863.html
  22. I think you are missing the point of my response, we employed Poch as obviously we wanted to play like his team before he got sacked at Espyanol hence employed him. Remember Poch was a bit of a laughing stock amongst the media when we employed him as a nobody and on here but now he is exceptional !! Good companies find undervalued people who fit our style (be it managers or players) and give them the environment to be excellent, its not just down to a player or a manager or a club, its down to to the environment for all 3 to be successful. Look at how much money west ham end up spending most summers.
