    If we are going for ultra negative Hughton we may as well keep woeful Flores.

    Does anyone have any info on Marco Giampaolo or Quique Setien's style etc.?

    Giampaolo had only been at Milan 9 games so he would be more than ready for however short his tenure would be with us.
     
  4. Definitely time to switch off social media, take a few weeks off work, close all the curtains and disappear if we change manager again!

    Of course not. Keep him to the end of the season if we get relegated he goes and the club save all the bonuses for staying up. Sack now and we end up paying out £millions in compensation to him and the backroom team and to hire in a new set.

    Best option is for Gino to give the whole squad a pep talk. To remind them that we are all in this together and he knows they can get us out of this mess. And to also remind them that he knows where all their kids go to school.

    You know as soon as they start making statements that QSF is going nowhere, the search for a new manager has already started. It’s going to be an absolutely majestic sacking after next Saturday’s debacle. If only the PL awarded points based on sackings.

    While I don't think QSF is the problem, I'd bite your arm off for Benitez.

    Do you think he still deserves his reputation as very good at managing teams - not so good at building them?

    That's not a problem he'll have here (or at many clubs nowadays) - I'm guessing he'd have little input on players purchased. Not that we'd ever get him.

    Benitez has had his day ... he's been on a slow decline and signalled that by going to China. I should imagine that he'd need to be bought out of whatever deal he has over there...

    It was only a few months ago he was doing well at Newcastle. Not saying he's the greatest but I reckon he's well above average.

    Just think, this time next week we'll be full of confidence for the Palace game after our new coach has just guided us to an impressive win against Leicester.

    It’s hypothetical because he supposedly left Newcastle due to lack of funds and Ashley refusing to back him long term - he definitely won’t get ‘long-term’ with us....

    Undoubtedly a good manager. But as West Ham are finding out with Pellegrini, I do wonder if it’s hard to bring players and managers back from China and expect a high level of drive from them. They are already undoubtedly very wealthy men - they don’t need to go to China. It’s purely financial - I’m not sure I would want someone who is motivated by that with little sporting challenge.

    I’d pick anybody over Flores. Even Perryman or Lee.

    Benitez is good at getting the most out of whatever he's given. That's pretty much what has to happen here for the rest of the year. Next year I think we have to go full force with a youth movement, no matter what result. It's too late for that this year.

    Well, we hired Quique twice, once after an underwhelming spell in the Gulf and again after one in China! At the time we first hired him, most fans were seduced by his Europa League win five years earlier, rather than his underwhelming career afterwards.

    Were we seduced or simply trying to look at the positives. We have no influence in choice of manager or players, we get what we’re given.

  25. Dear Pozzos, please do not feckin' sign Marco Silva if he's sacked.

    It will never happen. Even the Pozzo's aren't that dumb.

    That would be less popular than re hiring QSF

    I’ll take a not motivated manager who beats Chelsea 1-0 to be honest.

    Just a suggestion. I've not seen his name even mentioned, but he has a connection with Watford, always talks about the club fondly and is one of the few who openly praises Watford's model. Has been out of the loop for a while now, but I don't think it would be the worst appointment in the world.

    Paddy Power have suspended betting on Elton John taking over as head coach. Must be something in it.
