Ric Flair Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May 1 hour ago, Finnegan said: RVN wasn't really universally adored at PSV and I don't think the style of football would really be what Top is after. He also had significant problems with his dressing room, pretty much the opposite of Enzo. RVN plays very similar possession based football to Enzo.

No one knew two weeks ago that enzo was going for sure Just to say that Poch knew he was leaving before the final game it’s very likely that Chelsea had already identified enzo for their shortlist they would have sounded out his agent there would have been discussions re a possible new deal at Lcfc and I’d be surprised if Chelsea’s potential interest hadn’t formed part of that it’s usual for properly run clubs to have a shortlist for a replacement coach (yeah I know ) 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lionator Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May 1 hour ago, Wymsey said: Perhaps. Obviously take this with a pinch of salt, but heard that the owner and prospective new manager met in London yesterday and has unofficially agreed to join. He was the club's first choice, but apparently he changed his mind after initially declining the opportunity a couple of weeks ago. Source: A former box holder of over 20 years who used to have dealings with the club. If this is remotely close to accurate then I agree with the comment that it’ll be Potter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sambiasso Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May Would have thought the Sevilla links would have been stronger if he knew he was off. Don't buy it personally, it would be signed and sealed by now if talks began 2 weeks ago. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Sue with the Gazump to announce that she tricked Eghbali into signing Leicester Nirvana's U13 coach (who just happens to look like Enzo from behind at a 100ft distance) in exchange for £300m per year for 100 years, injected directly into LCFC's bank accounts, here we go?

We then spent a few weeks recruiting a new manager when Smith left and it wasn't just a case of immediately offering and agreeing it with Enzo again. Conversations may have been had hypothetically and now it seems he's going that it's back on the table. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cityfanlee23 Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May (edited) 1 hour ago, Mickyblueeyes said: There’s a lot of (unknown) talent out there. The guy at Bournemouth, Palace new manager (albeit it be good to see how he deals with next season) are people not necessarily household names before coming. However, they’ve adapted and implemented successful styles. Enzo was the first manager we hired outside the tried, tested, experienced range. And frankly it was a nice though risky. The club may have significant problems but it has a lot going for it. Players like Alves and Braybrooke coming through. Fatawu and Mavididi entering the unknown and could be revelations in the PL. every silver lining etc. I’m hoping the Enzo success has shown the powers that be the benefit of a calculated risk and we are casting our net far and wide. A bit of out of the box, calculated risk taking could be needed this season. Iraola at Bournemouth is the real deal imo, genuinely think he’s one of the more exciting European managers. 100% gets a top 6 club in the coming seasons Edited 29 May by cityfanlee23 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post StriderHiryu Posted 29 May Popular Post Share Posted 29 May 2 hours ago, Steve Earle said: Not sure if this has been posted before? Apologies if it has. Name that @StriderHiryu mentioned He’s my number one pick. Given a points deduction and restricted transfer business we’re favourites to go down. For that reason I’d hire someone who can commit to a 3-5 year project who is talented but young, exciting and with something to prove. Corberan also fits the profile but Arsenal’s patterns of play are almost identical to Maresca’s. It would be a seamless transition. Additionally he is credited as massively developing Saka and Odegaard, which would benefit Fatawu and KDH. High risk, high reward appointment, but an exciting one! 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beechey Posted 29 May Share Posted 29 May (edited) Build up looks very similar to Enzo. Seems he has a winger go into the 10, and the full back push up with the other full back slotting inside as a third CB. The shape ends up the same with a slightly different dynamic.
