Next manager discussion (poll reset 21/05/2016)

I will say it again - Roberto Mancini.

Under him City had a bit of steal that they have now lost. It took steal to go on that unbeaten run at the end of 2012. In some respects we are in a similar position to City when he took over at the tail end of 2009. He was an infinitely better City manager than Pellegrini.

By the time he left them, he had gotten them into the Champions League, won the FA Cup and Premier League. He knows how to defend and would't tolerate crap like yesterday.

If Newcastle can get Benitez I see know reason why we couldn't get Mancini.

Not a bad shout that...I would be on board with that choice.

Only person I'd accept right now is Ferguson returning from the managerial grave and that ain't gonna' happen...otherwise just calm the feck down and let things take care of themselves, which they will do.

But I don't want to see us playing QPR .

Nobody that could afford him. His record means he remains one of the top European managers. This is ridiculous, some people just can't handle the prospect of us hiring a top manager that you have to stop rubbishing the credentials of proven top quality managers. It's almost like you don't want it to happen.

Benitez is one of Europe's top paid managers, and he is being employed by Newcastle, end of.

Top paid yes, one o the best no.

Think everyone would love a top name manager but its naive o think we could get one of the calibre people are suggesting

 

[LinekersLegs]

We need a vocal, motivated manager who is going to be liked by the players.

Anyone suggested Klinsmann? Why not give him a chance with this set of players. Cannot argue with his pedigree as a player or manager.

Landon Donavon would certainly find that an interesting appointment

 

[arminisgod]

Jesus, this season is like heaven compared to some of the dross that moyes served up.

We got beat by a good side yesterday. Ffs it can happen

 

[sageyefc]

Do you have any more excuses as to why Everton can't compete with the likes of Newcastle? Maybe Newcastle have a closer proximity to London or something? If Newcastle can employ the 8th highest paid manager in football, then so can Everton. And Everton's transfer budget is far from miniscule.

There's high paid an then there's 'highly paid' your being very naive to think we are that much of a draw to some of the names getting mentioned, we're not talking about Rafael we're talking about the level above that

Plus who knows why Benitez has taken that job. He's always been a nutter. Plus he wont be there in 8 games time the way its going.

I can concede that paying the 15million pound a season that would be requried to get Mourinho maybe far fetched, not impossible, but far fetched. But Arsene Wenger, Klopp and Zidane are the next bracket after that, and we can definitely afford that level of manager, being paid about 8 million per year (10million Euros).

We could attract that level of manager, a VERY HIGH level of manager. Far better than our current comic book character.

Wenger is one of the highest paid managers in the world.zidane has done nothing. What are u talking about?

I bet Donovan would view Martinez as being sackable right now too!

Yeah I'd have Mancini as well. Would be made up with him.

No way Moyes would serve that up though with the squad Martinez has had.

I'm saying we have the capability to match the wages of the managers you mention. The managers currently being employed by Europe's very top clubs.

Think we really need to get over this best squad nonsense. Its only us thinking that.

He had the same back 4 and keeper. A midfield as good as the one now and very good strikers
