Next Bayern Munich coach I think Trent.... Tuchel would be a little bit more realistic but even then not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuchel would be a little bit more realistic but even then not sure. I’d be surprised looking at their recent list of appointments. Tuchel is more likely, he is someone that we could have potentially landed at one time. A lot has changed since then though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Claims he only signed "one or two players" to get them promoted from the Championship. That "one or two" were: Danny Simpson Richard Dunne Karl Henry Charlie Austin Gary O'Neill Matt Phillips Javier Chevanton Oguchi Onyewu Yossi benayoun Coll Donaldson Aaron Hughes Benoit Assou Ekotto Tom Carroll Niko Kranjcar Dellatore Kevin Doyle Will Keane Modibo Maiga Ravel Morrison But I suppose the Chairman deals with all that.

VillaChris Posted November 1, 2017 Share Posted November 1, 2017 You'd think if Bayern really want Tuchel they'd have appointed him now as he's not in a job. There's a few german posters on another forum I use and they reckon Bayern Munich will wait until the summer as Hoffenheim won't release him mid season so Heynckes is the perfect manager to tie them over until the summer. I think if we go up this season then I reckon we'd go after managers like Pellegrini and Roberto Mancini. Won titles in this country, big names and both still got a few more years left yet.

But saying that I wouldn't be upset with Hughton or Wagner either. Also if Rafa leaves he would be another I would be happy with 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted November 6, 2017 Share Posted November 6, 2017 Thought he did o.k at West Brom and was prematurely sacked. Reading job seems to have been a bit of a management killer in recent times, Clarke, Nigel Adkins and Brian McDermott all took that job as reasonably rated managers, got sacked and none of them are thought of anymore.

bobzy Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 I might have asked sometime earlier, but is Chris Hughton the most underrated manager going? Dyche this, Wagner that, how about Howe, Marco Silva is amazing... but pretty much nothing about Hughton generally. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted November 7, 2017 Share Posted November 7, 2017 Rumours Pulis is close to being sacked if he loses their next game. personally i hope they do as i think it will be the beginning of their downfall as he always seems to keep them up. Also I agree Hughton very under-rated, Id love him at Villa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LakotaDakota Posted November 24, 2017 Share Posted November 24, 2017 Looks like there could be some merry-go round action over the next few days for the same old faces. O'Neill To Everton, Pardew to Baggies & Pulis to Swansea if they lose at home to Bournemouth tomorrow. I know people moan about players wages but these lot make millions from continually doing a shit job & getting sacked Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
