I would prefer them to be thorough and get the right man in than rush and get it wrong again. I expect that they have got a couple of good advisors in Mendes and the new DOF. Just sit back and watch. I agree. Rushing it would be very Wyness / Xia style. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leighavfc Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 I am starting to wonder whether it is Rodgers with Terry as FTC or Assistant manager. We must be negotiating a fee or something because we surely would have somebody sorted by now if they were a free. If Belgian FA havent been contacted and/or Monaco rumours are true then cant be Henry. Probably rules out Faria, Sousa with them being out of work. Leaves Rodgers, Fonseca or Smith from what we can gather from rumours. Fonseca i cant see leaving Shakhtar for us. Smith i can see joining us and we would probably need to bring staff with him. Would probably have to pay big compensation so this could be a reasonable guess. Same with Rodgers as Smith really, Celtic want 2.5 million or have quoted that in the past. We would pay it im sure but would he leave Celtic for us at this stage, im not convinced but then again he always has praise for us. Then you have Terry which is also interesting after him supposedly being at VP yesterday. I would be worried if Terry becomes manager tbh, im not sure why really but have a hunch that it wouldnt go very well. Would be fairly happy with a Henry/Terry duo. God i hope it gets sorted quick... i am getting NO work done this week due to this lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tinker Posted October 9, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 9, 2018 I would prefer John Terry to Henry, Terry is a natural leader and seems to have the character to make difficult choices and enough arrogance. If we're gonna take a gamble then he for me would be a more logical choice 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've only fooled ourselves. Football news is always bullshit—just because we're in a manager hunt doesn't make it any less so. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that when Bruce was sacked all his backroom team were sacked at the same time suggested that we already had someone lined up as I don't think you sack all of the first team management and coaching set up without having a replacement in mind. Well seen as many people think Smith can't do the job without the Brentford team, i wonder if we have cleared the decks for the Brentford lot?

thejoker Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 If Henry is out of the running then it’s got to be Brendan Rodgers for me. It’s a no brainier if he wants it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Talldarkandransome Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 How many people does Smith have with him? Cos if its a whole army then what's the point. Too many cooks and all that Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BleedClaretAndBlue Posted October 9, 2018 Share Posted October 9, 2018 Every prospective option has probably been told we have little to no room to manuever in January due to FFP. Could be a big factor in any decisions to take this squad on or reject our advances. Probably end up having to settle for the bottom of the barrel. Welcome Pardew!! Either that Or K-Mac til end of season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
