Maybe, was my choice from the start and original poll tbh, was clear we needed a rebuild at the time, he knows and loves the club, is experienced with our academy, role model professional, all his teams try to play with the style I think we all miss etc.

I'd hope we'd already been sounding him out, but sure he wasn't a big enough name for some and 'Fulham got relegated'.

We are a massive club that he apparently loves, if we can't get a manager and ex-captain away from Bournemouth what's the fucking point really?!

Will be harder to tempt him away if/when they come up, but he's always been a favourite of mine. Would give anything for a player like him in the team now tbh.

One problem is it appears Paratici is very linked to a particular agent and doesn't seem inclined to look beyond his clients. Maybe that was what derailed Fonseco. Wasn't affiliated with the right agent. When the last two managers at a team come from the same agency and the new Director of Football is aligned with that agent you begin to wonder how much flexibility there is to hire the best person for the job.

Is anyone else really annoyed by Nuno's terrible beard?

Why doesn't he just shave it off. Who told him that it looks good?

I've been moaning about it since he got here. Why hasn't the club told him to shave it off?

I don't think players will be motivated by anybody that looks like a vagrant. He looks like a fucking bum, it's no wonder the players don't seem to have any interest in him.

:nunoteeth:
 
Jokes aside i don't think his beard is our biggest concern. There doesn't seem to be any plan going forward. Defence can hold without injuries but what is with the sideways and back passes all the time. We have so much possession with no real purpose. It's something that might work in Italy but not in England.
Skipp and Højbjerg can not be on the same pitch together. Moura is an impact substitute player. We need a Dembele or Modric in midfield again.
 
Conte will have funds at utd if he goes there to me he was never a realistic choice for us with Levy at the top little money would have been available .I think the so called talks were around the season ticket renewal time a con job just to get supporters giddy thinking things were going to change .

The main issue we have is ENIC/Levy, not disputing that. But Redknapp and Poch showed you can do a decent job, play good football and be competitive even with the hinderance that Levy clearly is.

The problem , well one of many , is that if we did manage to find someone who could make this team click & get them all performing. It’s always a short term fix , the lack of investment at critical times won’t happen & the squad will deteriorate as our “ ones for the future “ purchases rarely come good .

I think the next few windows are huge , not just for us but for ENIC too. Fail & the “ worth” of the football club will drop , maybe not the infrastructure but having “ anchor tenants” who repeatedly fail is a hinderance to ENIC , big decisions will be needed to be made . They either invest some of their own money or separate infrastructure from tenants but ive no idea how as their biggest asset debt is in THFC’s name not theirs, they’re not even guarantors of the debt How you can make £1b debt have a value of £3b is beyond me . The training ground is £45m , yup then the hotel , golf course blah blah , player worth but you ain’t raising it by £2b.

I think ENIC have bitten off more they can chew & it’s slowly chocking them , it’s like a person who lives on credit cards . Time to actually spend your own money rather than passing around debt if you want to reap the benefits, you have to throw your own cash into the pot.

Oh & CUNTS

Is he? We've signed one Mendes client under Paratici, and that is Nuno.

What data backs up that Paratici is a Mendes stooge?

That's like telling Mr. T to "lose the terrible mohawk".

If Nuno shaved off his beard, security wouldn't let him into the building.

I'm fairly certain I wouldn't recognize him without if we were passersby.
