Thoughts on Iraola?
Flavour of the month or could be genuine?
You cant really not enjoy how Bournemouth play right now. The movement is fantastic. Watching that kerkez bombing forward from fullback. He looks quality. 15m from AZ Alkmaar. We go spend £20m on jake obrien to sit on the f kin bench.
At this rate, he’ll be getting the ManU gig when Amorim inevitably gets launched
 
He still got it - one of the greatest tactical minds in football. I think he would benefit from the challenge of building a team from the ground up and actually being given the time to reach his goals. This means a top10 finish wouldn’t be expected in the first couple of seasons, allowing him to focus on team building and nurturing a competitive squad without the pressure for immediate success. I don’t think he has had such an opportunity since his early days at Porto and Chelsea, even though his success with those teams was immediate.

Mourinho would never accept a target of finishing below the top 10. If you told Mourinho that our target was to finish outside of the top 10, he'd never ever take the job. European qualification wouod be the minimum target acceptable to Mourinho.
 
All day been reading 'upwards and onwards', here's to the future' and 'bright new dawn' ...

Now see Moysey tops our 'next manager' poll. Some things never change eh?

So it's actually 'same old, same old', 'here's to the old' and 'all our yesterdays'.

Everton that.
I am scared of this also from the fact that TFG has had similar tendencies as Moshiri in what I would call glitz managerial hires.

But insanity is doing the same thing and expecting a different result. Us hiring Moyes, Mourinho, Rooney, Southgate and I would even say Potter and Bielsa is us simply keeping the exact same scattershot headline appointee strategy that got us in this mess. Personally the game is too nuanced now to have man managers who aren't able to tactically shift squads in game.

Beg the question what would the most competent clubs do. Who was one Brighton's shortlist pre Hurzeler. Those names tend to be Kasper Hjulmand, Kjetil Knutsen, Henrik Rydstrom. Frank Haise and Bo Svensson prior to them taking new jobs (still the EPL is the EPL).

The Friedkin's would be wise to build a model comparable.
