Quite a few days in terms of managerial upsides.
I probably wouldn't bother engaging with glastonspur. While I popped into Redcafe to gauge reaction to Contes appointment, there were a few people wondering if he was going to come back to that forum now. I didn't get the impression he is missed
Based on some of the details of the leaks Balague has been citing, it's clear that Emery read Ornstein's leaks and then pulled out in anger.
Imagine Nuno goes there and in a few years wins the league with all their money. Hahahahah
International management is of a vastly lower standard than club management. Mancini looks like a god at that level and he was average in the prem. Howe would be a good choice for England manager, can use/coach attacking football and with Grealish, Foden, Kane, Bellingham etc we have a lot of attacking talent.
The part I'd hone in on is whether or not he can get them ticking relatively quickly or if he takes an age to establish his style....
If its the former that would translate well considering the lack of time int. managers get with the players.
It's all getting a bit twitchy in Geordieland.............
Taking tips from our clubs summer search by the looks of things.
So I've gone from liking Unai Emery to hating Unai Emery to liking Unai Emery to hating Unai Emery to liking Unai Emery (if indeed he swerves them).Wow
Newcastle close to landing Unai Emery but manager insists ‘no offer’ made yet
Unai Emery has not received an offer from Newcastle but is aware of their interest, with the Premier League optimistic a deal can be donewww.theguardian.com
I can't see that this guy is going to work at all!
Has he ever fought a relegation battle? Has he ever had to scrap for points? He'll try to get them playing out from the back when they haven't got the defenders to do it (see Goons); 2 whole months till the transfer window opens, and they're already 6 pts off safety.
I honestly think he could take them down
Impressive stuff
and I also think it proves that it's not that easy (Villa I think are a well run Club these days going potentially for Fonseca also shows the managerial market is a tad stuck). I
am hugely surprised that there is literally zero plan, they've had well over a year to work on one, unhurried by the deadline of seasons starting/finishing transfer markets opening/closing and not to mention the everyday process and distraction of actually running a football club.
Think their first move should have been to get a DoF someone who knows football, has a black book and can organise and prepare the club for a) potentially dropping into the champ b) have a strategy to keep them in prem c) long term beyond both a+b.
It appears they've done absolutely fuck all!!
Should have thrown a wad of cash at Campos or Rangnick, let them work it out. Rangnick can even cover the manager role if needed.
You need people with connections and who know football running it, I mean look at all Levy’s fuck ups. At least we have have a DoF now in Paratici, even if it’s not clear how good he is yet.
LOOOOOOOOOOOOOL at Newcastle thinking they were getting Emery. Think they're a big club, but they're not, yet.
Stupid entitled fat fucking geordie twats

The fans are genuinely tempted by Nuno.

Seems like everyone believes January can’t save them.
And honestly, it might be dumb to even try, overpaying for a limited pool of players on long term contracts when FFP is a consideration and there’s such a massive difference between the PL and Championship in terms of what their squad needs will be.

What leaks?
Ornstein & a few others reported yesterday in detail on how Emery had virtual meetings with Newcastle on Sunday and was their first choice.
However Emery then got pissed off that this had been leaked as it was on a day of a crucial game for Villarreal. I think that then played a factor in him judging Newcastle hierarchy as amateurs, and thus turned down the job.
They should have just kept Bruce on. Nobody is going to want to be the manager that relegates the richest club in the world.
It is absolutely fucking hilarious though obviously. It is great they are struggling to get someone.
