It looks to me you're searching for a God to manage the team not a human.
Our options are limited, who next?
- Thread starter Adisa
- Start date
His contract is until 2020
I don't want pochettin0 here unless he has the genuine ability to bring Kane & Dier here even with world record fees.
I say that because like SAF did - we need to start weakening our opponents by going for their players or at least unsettling them.

What the feck?
Thinking selling their best players year after year has come home to roost and they have a lot of injuries it appears as well.
Nah, he's lost the dressing room, outdated manager.
Am I doing this correctly?
Think Spurs fans would deliver Dier to us with a pretty bow tied round his neck.
For me it would be
Giggsy
Scholesy
Neville
Winners mentality in each of them.

LOL not for just him but both together
sorry about that lolJardim won't win anything here but he's exactly what we need at the moment away from any flashy name. We need someone who will take the players to training ground and teach them how to play proper football, how to pass and immediately move in free space to make yourself target for passing, how to move behind defenders ..etc. No top short-term manager will do that.
2-3 years of Jardim teaching the squad proper football, then let him go and hire a top manager to start winning trophies.
He hasn’t signed one good player since they got promoted in the premier league.
Also let’s not rewrite history. Bournemouth were one of the biggest spenders in the championship. They broke FFP rules.
Howe did a good job. But let’s not make out he did it on pennies. Without the significant investment, Bournemouth wouldn’t be in the premier league.
Anyway I can’t believe people are suggesting him. We must really be desperate. We should go for Wagner if we can’t get Howe.
The names some people are suggesting are clubs like Leicester and Everton wouldn’t look at.
No seriously Dier.....what the feck....LOL not for just him but both together
I think Dier is rubbish as a CM the way he is playing now & have no idea why pochettin0 plays him there but i thought he was fantastic as a third CB back when Spurs played 3 at the back. The whole team played better then & iI Felt like Dier did exactly what Fellaini has been doing this season. I also like to see United have a bunch of homegrown players too.
Didn't Mourinho sign Matic as Spurs wouldn't sell Dier ?
Monaco's recent sales: Mbappe, Lemar, Mendy, Balde, Bakayoko, Moutinho, Bernardo Silva, Fabinho and the list goes on. He beat PSG to the league title on a fraction of the budget and developed these players to be sold on at a huge surplus. Knocked City out if the CL over 2 legs playing attractive fast counter attacking football.
Give him a transfer budget and a stable team and he would succeed. I also think he would get the best out of the young players we have, Pogba, Martial, Shaw, Dalot, Fred, Rashford would excel under him.
Zidane has an amazing record but wage bill aside our squad doesn't compare to what he inherited at Real.
Yep i think so - I'd personally go after him play him as the third CB & get rid of both Matic & Fellaini. Whilst Fellaini has been good - I'm just tired of him being used as a plan B when we don't have a plan A. Spurs have been off for a whilst now I kinda just want to use our Money to make them unstable & weaker. I look at the 90 mil we spent for Lukaku; we should have just spent an extra 110 mil on Kane and add 30 mil extra for Dier & significantly weakened them.
It's the type of thing SAF would have done. All just dreams though & it won't happen.
Zidane or Pochettino I guess.
Or we could step away from playing cloggers and move in a different direction...
The trick is not to just buy whoever is available at the time. We should appoint the best interim manager we can find, even if it's for two years, knowing that we will have to wait for the person we really want. That's what City did with Pep and it paid off. We should do the same. Nearly every manager comes available over a five year period.
If Zidane would take that kind of deal, then great, but he wouldn't. So find someone who would.
But don't let Ed Woodward just blunder in again like the amateur he too often appears to be.

I think Dier is rubbish full stop, wherever he plays. If he was good as a third CB he'd play there for England over Kyle Walker. I'd rather sign young De Ligt from Ajax, a player who is already putting in mature performances and still has massive potential to grow.
Me too
Bailly - Dier - De ligt
That's what iIwant to see - anyway it's besides the point. It was about pochettin0 & how idon't think he is all that great but if he does come he should go after Tottenham to weaken them.
This...
This should be considered. I said this to a few people recently. Aside from his experience and history with us, look at how organised Queiroz had Iran in the WC, missing out on a crazy knockout round achievement by a whisker.
Quieroz until Giggs proves himself more.
Carrick may still be learning the ropes of what to actually do in management
For right now, we need someone with great man management skills to come in. I'm not sure about Zidane, but I would take him as he's known to be very good with that side of things. 50% of everything to do with playing at the highest level is mental anyway, so we need to address this first.
We also need to add some good coaches to our backroom staff as we are horribly coached. There must be some that are available.
It's pretty tough at the moment to get someone to do an interim job but I guess a last resort could be Wenger? Yes, we won't win anything (maybe FA Cup
), but at least he can calm things down until we get our shit sorted out.
Do not want Carrick to be the interim. I like him a lot, but he can't turn things around. Plus he's been there since SAF left, and that says to me that whatever influence he has with the players is simply not enough to get a response from them.
McKenna is also a huge risk but it's impossible to know how he would go about doing things as we don't know him....
As I said, it's difficult.

He should also have a massive todger, able to fold his face eight times, and know how to sing Barbie Girl backwards whilst riding a motorcycle made out of skinned unicorns that he personally shot that morning.
We assumed but didnt really know. As I said Crerand didnt know and he would know before the fans
I agree or even the fella at wolves they both play football so it'd be a start
Matic is significantly better though. For a defensive midfielder with height strength and tackling ability his technique on the ball is top level. Can't say the same for Dier.
Just like their players, surely Monaco would sell their manager for a bit of cash money no
?If he could be tempted away from Atletico Madrid I would say Diego Simeone would be worth it.
That doesn't even make sense, he can't be the third CB because he's already the starting midfielder. Can't play two positions at one time. If there were any half competent midfielders then for all we know he'd be pushed back to CB.
If Walker was good as a RWB he'd play there over Trippier. Logic.
It doesn't matter. Klopp was close to the relegation zone with Dortmund once and had a terrible season. Doesn't mean he's a bad coach. There's nothing the manager can do when the club keeps selling it's best players. Monaco have been selling players since 2015. I'd rather look at the way Jardim developed the young players and always adapts to the players he has.
If Crerand had paid attention he would have known too. Of course as fans we don't know for sure but I was convinced Mourinho would come in.
And people betting on who the next manager will be, should put it on Zizou.
Wasn't Fergie just that a footballing God?
There's one version of Fergie only, unfortunately. You can't get more than one copy of a God.
Of course, but so was giggs and the club gave it to him on an interim basis. Carrick imop is infinitely more carismatic. Managing a united, barca, real, bayern sized club is a unique challenge and he knows the club inside out and will the club first not his own agenda.
Not saying on a permanent basis just as interim until a proper dof and football strategy is drawn up. We need to wait for the right man, not go "galactico" flavour of the month manager again.
It seems Jardim is the one on everyones lips which probably means he will struggle here. Redcafe hardly ever get anything right.
