Fuck anyone who hasn't done a thing in European major football as a manager btw.
The problem with that is that nobody will ever have free reign to spend that 100m without the restrictions that Levy puts on them limiting the quality of player that we get.
I am fine with the idea of selling Kane, Son, Hugo and everyone and going with a rebuild. With a quality DOF and manager it is probably the route that makes the most sense because of how far off we are, the age of our key players and lack of Levy willing to spend what is needed to get us to the top, but I have zero faith that Levy will let those people do the proper rebuild and buy the proper players. There will always be a demand to get players not for the football ability but based on the deal you can get and their perceived sell on value later.
Does he? Why isn’t he in Europe yet if that’s where he wants to be?
(For the record I hate that we talk about a club like River Plate as if it’s some backwater and FIFA and its global sponsors should be working harder to change that, but alas it is the current financial reality.)
read not sure if its still true is that he wants to see out their season first or something, not sure when argentine league finishes
He’s supposed to be a business man, savvy wise but when it comes to managers of football clubs well he looks pretty clueless.
It already ended in December. The next season starts in June and I think goes until just before the WC.
There were rumours that he is now ready to go.
As you say River Plate is not a backwater club, especially to Argentinians, so not too surprised that he was happy staying there previously.
I think he will go to a Spanish team as that seems like a easier transition in terms of playing style, competition and obviously with his language.
I’ll post more on my thoughts regarding this in the coming days but Conte won’t be given what he needs, Paratici isn’t the DOF we need to manage the rebuild (vibes of Sven’s old #2 who did the bodge job with the magnificent 7 money). As much as it pains me, if ENIC won’t sell or give Conte what he wants they need to part ways after the final game of the season. The goons model has some value and the lack of fight in our team really bothers me.
I’ll get dogs abuse for it but as I wanted at the start of this season when we couldn’t get a manager I’d take Scott Parker. Tired of seeing us linked with players from other countries when there are promising players in the Championship or EFL.
Trouble is, such an appointment may not get ENIC the bums in seats, investment but you’ll get the commitment and that is what’s missing now and something Poch managed to bring back early in his tenure.

Just to see some attacking football would be nice.
