Diego Simeone

This appears to have gone a bit quiet.

I am concerned he is still mulling over the contract, he may not 'get us'.

Yep the only thing this tells me is the club were behind the Simeone story.

Embarrassing.

I guess we are going to pinch Griezeman of Utd like we did with Mourinho and Mata. No wait. That isn't what happened. As soon as they asked we gave them our star striker just in time so they could have a full pre-season with him.

Be real, no approach has been made to A Madrid until then a contract cannot be proposed.

I've heard we're still waiting for Fat Sam to get back to us, Simeone is our fall back

I reckon Allardyce would jump at the chance of a one-season contract, despite noises he wants something "long-term"

He only wants a long contract for a fat payoff when he gets sacked for being useless. At least with unsworth there's an element of unpredictability

At this stage I don't get us, what chance does Diego have?

It's just smoke and mirrors while we sign joachim low.

Is that supposed to be bad news?

 

[Blues Harp]

Its a smokescreen to divert us from the fact that Unsworth will still be in charge for the Palace game

Good shout.

Unsie until after the World Cup then Joachim.

Announcement on Tuesday

And the rest of the season

 

[Eggsyblueskin]

And the rest of the season

It’s going to be hard to persuade Diego to come to a championship team then.

If we have been on the phone to Bayern and Dortmund telling them to send us their best players, then sound.

If not, he was utter toilet as a club manager.

What I've realised is 2 things. 1) you seem to like full stops & 2) this is a forum where people discuss 'things'. You do realise that this isn't the actual club here right?

I'm well aware of that but you are giving me grief for saying we shouldn't be wasting time chasing Simone we tried to show ambition and nobody wants to join us yet we need to show progression and get to a stage where people actually believe that we are capable of challenging for CL spots Simone will not come to a team that was in the bottom two last week

Not one full stop used mate

Many women are pole climbers. They'll drape themselves all over a pro footballer because they have cash, and aren't worried that another footballer is paid more, so long as there's enough cash to pander to their quest for vanity and baubles. This is why many but ugly, charmless,characterless footballers have their choice of grease painted beauties.

Managers won't be far different, so long as they can afford an overly priced branded watch,each week, and some hand made Italian golf shoes, without worrying the bank account the money will talk.

My point is slightly different. This isn't any woman but a supermodel. Once you get to a certain level who you choose also reflects on you. Simeone's star is rising - next step for him is important - at best we are a gamble.
