Well Nagelsmann has expressed an interest in managing Sours according to Sky. Bless, he's from Germany and has no idea what he's letting himself in for. 
Any room for Bentancur when fit? The formation would be perfect .
A very apt typoWell Nagelsmann has expressed an interest in managing Sours according to Sky. Bless, he's from Germany and has no idea what he's letting himself in for.
We’re not like either club in any way. We’re a regular CL club, with a decent history, 60,000
fans every week and huge income streams.
The point I’m making is that, like it or not, we have a lot of complex big personalities at the club, and Nagelsmann has clashed with multiple people at Bayern, so how will that more blunt aspect of his being fit in at us? The recent history of all our bigger managers is ultimately clashing with Levy and co. and a growing toxic environment.
I wish we would be run like Leipzig
Really?
A feeder club with a hard ceiling.
We were Leipzig for Real Madrid and Man UTD for a long while. Didn't get us anywhere.
depends what your expectations are really.
personally speaking, I'm fine with a transitional period if it means we absolutely get rid of the numerous deadwood (and even the 'star' players like Kane and Son if that's what's needed) and target up and coming yound players who are already good with the potential to get better.
I don't care what anyone says the nucleus of our squad is good. Romero, Porro, Udogie, Spence, Skipp, Sarr, Bentancur, Bissouma , Kulusevski, Richarlsion is a good starting point.
If Nagelsmann is brought in for that purpose with the objective to remain somewhat competitive in the short term with the long term being to eventually start properly competing again and it's clear he gets what he signed for then I'm good with it.
I don’t disagree with most of that. I think the main question is whether he’s going to clash with players, staff and directors as he has just done at Bayern.
All true. But the real pulse of a genuinely ‘big’ club is the realistic expectation and delivery of silverware. We certainly do not have that.
We’re a lovely proposition. Beautiful club with exciting prospects, but we’re firmly in the second string.
That’s why someone like Nagelsmann could work. Your point about his personality is valid though. Although being arrogant might help with someone as insufferable as Levy.
RB Leipzig are a horrible plastic corporate invention. They didn’t exist 14 years’ ago. They’re part of a multinational football group. A combination of the very worst of MK Dons and the City Football Group.
No thanks.
Bayern are like UTD. The politics are insane.
I mean, Tuchel is hardly shy and retiring.
Yes. Agreed. Something must have gone very badly wrong personality-wise at Bayern. Levy just needs to try and really get into Nagelsmann’s head and do a bloody good interview… if indeed we are going to talk to him.
Pure guesswork, but I think the fact that he has broken up with his girlfriend in the same week suggests that there was huge personality clashes between Nagelsmann and the board, and they disapproved of how he conducted himself ‘in life’, not just football.
Perhaps he needs to grow up a bit and stop believing his own hype.
Nothing wrong with getting someone with a point to prove though.
Some of our fans feel we have our station and should stay there. So a player like Devine would come in, do well and then move on to Man Utd or Chelsea when the time comes. They have Stockholm Syndrome from too long under ENIC.
Levys personality seems to be one that even the most passive person will find issues with. No point even dwelling on that point.
we have to wait the end of the season, see where we are and what competitions we are going to play next year.
if we finish 6th, with the conference league to be played, with the kane's issue, we could afford at most nuno-like coaches
