Ferguson's Successor

VII · 2nd July 2008, 12:51

Mourinho or Ramos.

Capello sucks.

thebelfastboy · 2nd July 2008, 12:52

jose is probably the only person able to succeed where fergie has left off...

i really liked the style of football the dutch played in the euros, would van basten be worth a shout in a couple of years????

Lizard King · 2nd July 2008, 13:03

Mourinho can fuck off with his boring football and massive ego.

Fergie has a massive ego, does that upset you in a similar way?

We need a big ego at this club, someone who can play mind games and bully refs.

Rednails · 2nd July 2008, 16:56

Imo SAF will surprise us all and go a lot sooner than we think.

The King is Dead - Long Live the King.

So lets hope the powers that be are making plans.

redwhiteblack · 2nd July 2008, 17:25

can't believe the number of people saying Mourinho on here!

HE DOES NOT BELONG AT MANCHESTER UNITED.

i'd rather have someone who's never won silverware as a manager, but understands the club (like Keano) than that drama queen.

shame on yous.

Rednails · 2nd July 2008, 17:47

Yes the more I think about it the more I like it. SAF either retires now and hands over to Carlos or he promises to go in one year after trying to win back to back CLs finals.

That solves the succession and Carlos problems in one fell swoop and may also keep Ronaldo happy.

No way do we want Mourinho. We play ATTACKING football at OT.

Some fucking mongs on here today

UnitedRoadRed · 2nd July 2008, 18:08

Hughes still in with a shout for me.
Good test for him going to citeh - see if he can handle big money and big players only a few miles from Fergie's watchful gaze. If he fucks up, he's a secret agent. Win-win really.

utdalltheway · 2nd July 2008, 18:30

always admired Moyes. the way that he can take an average club and do good things. last year they had some tough breaks with injuries but overall I think he's done a decent job with what he's got.
same for Hughes.

don't think that CQ would make it as #1 for us.

I think Strachan would do alright too. he's certainly got some 'big game' experience at the Mgmnt level.

Feed Me · 6th July 2008, 22:34

Well things have changed since I started this thread. If CQ takes over Portugal I really do not see him becoming our new boss. People talk about a once in a lifetime opportunity with his country, but he won't get two cracks at the United job.

He's still got a shout albeit a slimmer one now and I wouldn't want him back at current standings. But let's say he does an outstanding job for Portugal in the World Cup, then who knows.

Why a slimmer one now?? Not much has changed over the past week...

Red Indian Chief Torn Rubber · 7th July 2008, 07:37

If he signed for Portugal and won the 2010 World cup. I can guarantee he'd be first choice for the job here as Fergie quits

Rory 7 · 7th July 2008, 11:51

Brian McClair

Seriously. I think we should recruit from within.

Are you ready to sell Rooney?

Yep, that's the big stumbling block for Moyes taking over.
I'd rather keep Rooney as the long-term captain to be honest and look at other managers; he's not exactly stand-out candidate right now.

course not. He's one of my fav Utd players. I've heard about the falling out of between him and Moyes but I'd hope that it'd be water under the bridge should Moyes take over.

I'd have thought they'd both be too professional for that to be an issue. What would worry me more is that Moyes clearly has the potential to sell Rooney if the money's good enough - after all, he's done it before...

Robbo · 11th July 2008, 07:50

No one stands out..

Kidd..no
McClaren..No
Hughes..not proven and no euro experience as a manager
Keane...as above
O'Neill..No CL experience of latter stages and a bit naive for my liking
Wenger..fits the bill but would you want a cunt like that at OT

Cant see anyone else on the horizon and fear a genuine decline for the club when he goes..

Elliott · 11th July 2008, 07:54

O'Neill or Ramos for me.

R.Nilsson7 · 11th July 2008, 07:56

CQ or Larry White.

Kaush949 · 11th July 2008, 07:57

Guus Hiddink

Yianni · 11th July 2008, 08:27

CQ simply because he has had experience before managing a top club, has been with us for quite some time now and has worked under SAF himself. I get the impression he would be the best candidate for the transition.

Lot 49 · 11th July 2008, 08:44

Dippersripper · 11th July 2008, 08:51

Ramos
Jol
Keane

Cornell · 11th July 2008, 08:51

For some reason the thought of Mourinho at Old Trafford isn't a particularly worrying thought. He's probably one of the few who'd have the right personality and ego to take over from Fergie.

a_devil_inside · 11th July 2008, 09:01

only Queiroz fits the bill at the minute but i'm not sure on him still.

I said the same thing in another thread and got hammered by the other posters. Mourinho is not right for a club of our class

McLovin · 11th July 2008, 09:19

Would like someone who'd carry us on, making us play good attractive attacking football. Because when that happens, then winning will almost always follow.

That would not happen with Mourinho. He can stay as far from OT as possible.
