Diego Simeone

[catcherintherye]

Yeah May be down to his agent that mate as he thought he'd signed for Chelsea, doubt simeone is as gullible,

You are normally spot on with most things Steve, and by no means a pessimist. I share your view which is this is a diversion tactic (if it is it could be big mistake from Moshiri by the way).

However for a moment think it's not. Consider Usmanov will be formally on board by the summer (which is far from unrealistic) possibly alongside heavy Chinese investment. Could you see a possibility in that world, a huge wage for Simeone and an enormous transfer pot that he would come? Is there any offer we could make him that might tempt him?

Why would Simione come here? What can we offer?
- Premier League
- Massive wages
- Ambitious project
- Head to head with Jose and Pep

Would that tempt him?

LOL

To be fair to Silva, his first-half season in English football, and he managed to dig a poor Hull side almost to safety. Hull were bottom of the league when he arrived, he had a W6 L9 D3 league record with them - 21 points from 18 games - not a bad points tally; given what he had to work with and the lack of time to do it in.

yeah but its hardly salivating. Just seems a bit ott from me. If his name was big fat sam people wouldnt get so excited.

Koeman got paid more than Simeone.

He was the 8th highest paid manager in the world.

Yeah but we'd have to pay Simeone (champions league finalist and La Liga winning manager) a lot more than Ronald 'did alright at some mid table teams and used to be a boss sweeper' Koeman

 

[witchdoc187]

Interesting, in which event do we keep Unsy though to that time and hope he can stabilise the club and produce a safe 7th/8th position in the PL.

maybe hed be tempted by having a pop at trying to get us out the champoinship

LOL

I'll take that as a maybe?

Yes, but it would be worth it.

I'm not quite sure taking charge of us would put him head-to-head with Pep and Jose, rather head-to-head with Moyes and Howe.

No, it's not the most inspiring, but you know how the media bandwagon goes these days as soon as a new manager strings together a couple of wins. He did a reasonably good job at Hull, given the circumstances.

That grease haired beaut should be grateful we are even flashing a leg his way.

My sources tell me we have certainly turned his head with our approach.















Been told that in 2 or 3 days he might stop laughing long enough to giggle a no.

12/1 with sky bet from 66/1 this morning

 

[Eagle Eye]

If we can't even attract players like Giroud to the football club, then how the hell will we get Simeone?
