    Disagreed with this. This sort of manager turnover is the norm in Italy. I would be very surprised if a foreign manager wouldn't jump at wanting the Watford job.

    Excellent commitment. Already scouting. Kygrios in at left back would be a significant improvement.

    Agreed. He either needed to kill the story immediately and say he was staying no matter what, or forced a move away and resigned. Likewise we should have taken the money, if he wanted out.

    Please please please no.

    He left there.
     
  8. Carrillo can **** right off with my blessing. Never seen a player with such inate skill waste it with lack of brain and lack of effort.

    As for no-one wanting the gig - don't you worry about that.

    Exactly. Fired after they finished 9th.

    I'd much rather a coach from abroad that I've never heard of than on of the usual journeyman English coaches that get touted around every time a job comes up. At least if I don't know them I can delude myself that they're going to be excellent for the first couple of months.

    We'll say bye to Carrillo. Rich isn't going anywhere, and I think we're more than good enough to avoid the drop, provided the new guy reinstalls the team spirit as it was pre-Evertongate and doesn't doggedly stick to formations that don't suit the personnel.

    Someone good has already agreed to take the job. I'd have money on it.

    Good riddance Marco, let the door hit you on the way out. Hope it smashes your watch too!

    They should give Graham Potter a go imo. He clearly knows how to motivate a team!

    Hey! At 69 I'm starting to feel distinctly uncomfortable with the way this is going.

    Must say that my feeling over this season have been exactly the same as Malts. I thought we'd appointed the right man and those first few games seemed to endorse it. We were playing well, were exciting to watch and had a togetherness and spirit in the squad.
    Then it all started to go sour. I backed Ginos decision to give Everton the v sign thinking Silva would crack on with the job and we'd carry on and put the approach behind him but obviously too much was damaged behind the scenes and he had to go.

    Remember the scenes on the touchline after the last second equalizer vs WBA ? One united club, players fighting for, and happy for, each other. So sad that we lost that. Would be incredible if we end up relegated after that start.

    That's the mission. Get enough together for 3 or 4 wins.

    Maybe I just dream of a tenure lasting over 12 months!

    No essay?

    I'm disappointed.

    Not quite sure why you would expect a manager to be loyal to you given your record with managers? Whilst I can understand why you'd be irritated at him surely you must expect it. As for the comment stating that he could have had a good couple of years with you before moving on, which manager have the Pozzo's given a couple of years at your club? As far as I can see none. With that in mind, even after nine games if a bigger club came in of course he's going to want to go since he's expecting to be gone by the end of the season anyway.

    What does make me laugh is when I hear the media saying, we won’t be able to find a manager due to the number of changes etc. The fact is when a manger fails he gets a massive payoff and usually finds a new position quickly. Who wouldn’t want that!

    Oh I think I can. They were told 'no' by the club but carried on agitating by making their bids public. Silva shares the blame of course.

    Fair play to the club. Get some signings, fix our broken players, then things will start looking good again.

    At the end of the day, it just isn't acceptable to be expected to leave a club 9 games in because you got a better offer.

    I heard it was Reuben Kazan from Grazia! Former fashion editor going to smarten our backline.

    Troy should boot Carrillo down the car park after Silva.

    "Oi, greasy! You forgot this!"

  32. Not sure why you would expect anyone to give a flying **** about what someone with no knowledge of the club beyond superficial tabloid soundbites thinks?

    Yes, though he is a great manager not sure if he would be suited to being a head coach under the Pozzos. But yes 100x yes, got GT written all over him.

    In fairness, it's the norm in the Premier League now - 8 managers sacked already this season!
