Paulo Pezzolano - Head Coach

You need a licence for one of those !.

 

Who is this Bjelica guy? Very mixed record. There is a fellow Jakirovic who the bookies have at 10/1 or so for some reason

 

Quite! A deity figure?! hahahaha

He was an average player, an average manager and frankly a very boring human being.

He did support the youth and I appreciated that, but come on. He did enough - which included beating Luton - so thanks for that.

 

In his interviews he had the charisma of a potato, at best.

 

new head coach of Watford will be Uruguayan Diego Alonso. Formerly of a few Mexican clubs (where he last held success), Inter Miami, the Uruguay national team, Sevilla and Panathinaikos.

but average tenure at places is short so suits Watford FC.

 

Where did you hear this? I saw there is one Twitter account who has suggested this as a rumour because someone else had heard the coach was Uruguayan

 

Don't get peoples hopes up

 

If true, I would suspect @Relegation Certs would be somewhere between mollified and quietly satisfied.

 

First post, straight in with the new manager's name! Welcome to the forum.

Are you Uruguayan? Related to him? Any inside info on this bloke?

 

14% win percentage with Sevilla

 

Signed him for Watford on CM01/02 from Valencia after I’d sold Vernazza to Celtic for 9m. He scored a hatful in Division 1 as we romped to the title, but struggled with the step-up to the Premier League and was ultimately replaced by an 19 year Bosnian by the name of Eldar Hadzimehedovic.

We won the Champions League in 2009.

Make of that what you will.

 

I think he is him. Welcome to the forum Diego.

 

Diego Alonso now favourite by a distance. Would be a dreadful appointment, even by Gino's incredibly low standards.

 

Yet another 4231 merchant. Another year of soul sucking boredom awaits.

 

Never heard of him. Sounds like a made up South American name. What's the beef?

 

Looks terrible.

Get him in!

 

Record is astoundingly bad, been a huge failure pretty much everywhere he's been outside of Mexico and Paraguay. Particularly terrible spells recently with Sevilla and Panathanikos.

 

One man’s multiple failures is another man’s multiple learning experiences and ‘it’ll definitely work THIS time’.

 

Suit and tie manager?

Managed Uruguay at the Qatar World Cup, why on earth would he want to join our tragic club? Even if he is shyte.

 

When Sir Lloyd of Doyley inevitably gets the boot grass roots support would go ape ****.

Please let it happen.

 

Eff eff eff, eff eff eff, eff off.

 

This seems like the perfect Pozzo appointment. Nobody will raise an eyebrow when he's sacked in October, after all he's never stayed in a manager seat in Europe for more than 3 months before! Quite astonishing to manage Sevilla for two months without winning a single league game and bringing Panathinaikos to mid-table in the Greek league, I must say...

 

He’ll fit in perfectly!

 

Are you taking the mick out of my name, sunshine?

 

Good enough for me! Bienvenido Diego!

 

When will that c&@t in charge realise he is absolutely carp at selecting Watford managers

 

Genuinely can’t see the thought process here, I get he wants someone who won’t rock the boat, but unless Cleverley pissed on Gino’s lawn behind the scenes, he doesn’t seem like that kind of person!

 

Whatever Carlos Coachaball we get from the Mongolian Throat Singing League I am going to fully back!!!

Grass-fed and free to roam the Pampas.

 

Because he will struggle to get a job elsewhere in Europe due to his abysmal recent record. This is the sort of muck I was worried about when the club took the perhaps understandable decision to replace TC. Dreadful appointment if true but I guess he’s the only one prepared to come here. I assume just to add insult to injury that he has “Mazzarri standard” English ??
Would prefer we stuck with TC.
