For me Benitez is a decent manager who I feel can build a team over a few years. Don't think we can get any bigger because the bigger managers wouldn't want to start from scratch and have less resources from where they came from or are used to as it would damage there reputation.
Fonseca, Emery (without Monchi) are as much a risk as Silva. Benitez is the only proven one amongst all likely candidates but as I said earlier his Newcastle team finished below us so is that his reputation down the pan. Hard call, risky call no matter whom.

I wouldn't be against Rafael. he is a proven winner. I think most premier league clubs would be after him , he did well at Chelsea and has stabalised a very weak Newcastle team.

to be honest he is the perfect fit for Arsenal, who will go thro a tricky transition period.

if it wasn't for his links to them lot, he would certainly be considered for our job
 

he might work, he might not, but going on what he has achieved so far it doesn't look like we will be getting a man good enough to execute a game plan to rival the top 4 or top 6. what we will have is a manager who can beat the bottom half teams and lead us in to 7th or 8th.

the club have released a statement today saying we should be fighting every day for the top.

in that case we need a TOP manager, not one who has already been relegated from this league and then gave up on the job at Watford.
Ranarisp) turn up at Leicester everyone laughed... said he was crap with a bad record in his last job....think he did quite well myself.

Silva young, made a mistake going to Hull but at least gave them a fighting chance, team that didn’t have enough players to fill the bench.

Was doing well at Watford, we came in and Watford got injuries to some key players and it fell apart...Watford have signed something like 42 players in the last few years. That teams baffling.

I think Silva will be right up for this, he be eager to prove the doubters wrong and has a quality DOF buying the players
 
Everyone seems to be focusing on who he could buy or bring in as manager. Will also be interesting to see if part of his remit is the academy. Says that he did a lot with the PSV academy and restructured it and is going well. This might also affect Unsie as well because didnt he also take on head of academy as well as the U23 gig.

Unfortunately these days big successful clubs don’t build from the academy anymore.
 

Get a manager in within next two weeks and we have over two months to fix the squad before start of season.

Aim imo should be to maintain pace with 5/6 position in league by turn of year, then finish the rebuilding job in January to push on towards Europe.

Aim to have all dead wood out of the squad within 12 months, hopefully a large number of players gone this window.

The manager doesnt have a say in player recruitment anymore, thats Marcels job.

Marcel can sort it out in two months then! No doubt he's been working on things already seeing as the speculation has been ongoing for over a month. Here's hoping.
