stewavfc Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I imagine that talks may take a little while longer than normal as Ancelotti has to get his head around not having an interfering, medelling owner pulling the strings above him. Ancelotti: ....hang on, let me gets this right....you give me the money....and I get to choose the players.....what's the catch?? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nik986 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Carlo with Sargent Wilko joining will be good. Laursen on the team (speaks italian) would also be great alongside Taylor, Dublin etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TrentVilla Posted June 5, 2011 Author Moderator Share Posted June 5, 2011 I'd have no desire to see Ian Taylor on the coaching staff to be honest. For a start he doesn't strike me as having a great deal to offer as a coach and secondly I didn't much like his involvement in the deal that took Barry to pastures new.

TheEgo Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 On Oddschecker there is a bookies where you cant get a price on Benitez or Carlo, yet you can all other managers, they have SP next to their name, whats that all about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tayls Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 When do we recon we will hear something, realistically... We thinking 2 weeks, maybe longer? Ancelotti has to be the number one choice and Laursen involved in the coaching would be perfect... Why isn't he anyway???? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villaboy_87 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Well if Carlo does join us im due to make £43 profit on betfair, me think that the £3 will go straight on us to with the league 599/1...Get in! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

villaboy_87 Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Watching Universidad Catolica v Union La Carera live on betfair and the ref just gave an unused sub a red card....random! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because he hasn't got any coaching badges and doesn't want to be a coach yet? don't let that get in the way though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTVPK Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I think Ancelotti and AVFC could be a nice fit. Lerner operates in a way that surely CA would feel more relaxed to take on a club that wants to progress, not win titles and win the champions league (well, not just yet!) No doubt he would be given a transfer kitty and will be backed by the board. Our club really has potential to kick on again. We need a manager like this to show we mean business. I do believe the " sell to buy" policy was mainly in force to get MON to sort the mess he had made with contracts and the wage bill. Lets face it, he took us as far as he could. Now most of our excess baggage have left the club, i am hoping Randy wants to take one more stab at the top four and splash some serious spondoolies. At no other club will he get a board that sticks by you like AVFC- look at how they stood by GH over xmas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
West Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Excuse my ignorance but what makes Ray Wilkins such a good number 2 that everyone seems to be wanting him should Ancelotti come? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NowDoINotLikeThat Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Personally would love Ancelotti or Hughes. Said it before but think Hughes is underated on here. Ancelotti would be first choice but dont get some negativity towards Hughes - i think hes a constant improving manager with lot to prove and hungry and does have sides playiung decent stuff contrary to some myth.

Dodgyknees Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Wasn't it Michael Standing who did the deal for Barry to move, I remember Taylor being angered and calling it a sideways step? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
briny_ear Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 I do believe the " sell to buy" policy was mainly in force to get MON to sort the mess he had made with contracts and the wage bill. Do you not think it was also to do with the UEFA "Financial Fair Play" policy, under which we would currently fail to meet the UEFA standards? If so, "sell to buy" needs to go on and it has to be "Buy cheaper than you sold for". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UTVPK Posted June 5, 2011 Share Posted June 5, 2011 Excuse my ignorance but what makes Ray Wilkins such a good number 2 that everyone seems to be wanting him should Ancelotti come? he is class, a good link between players and the manager and gets you playing to your ability. Hes a motivator and proven. ( we had Gmac) Chelsea players were GUTTED when RW went, they were not the same team. Assistant mangers are an important factor in any team.
