Murmurings of Klopp or Van Gaal possibly coming in the summer if we don't make the CL. It wouldn't surprise me if CL was a minimum requirement in the job. I would take either over Moyes especially Klopp even though Van Gaal has a better cv and is a CL winner and has vast experience of the Ajax system which is Barcas pattern of okay also.
Barca system comes from cruyff, van gaal and him do not see eye to eye on system, although would be an improvement
Thanks for the history lesson Eric but I didn't say that van Gaal invented Barcas way of playing I said he has experience of it . Barcas current style of play comes from Rinus Michels old Ajax team and the Ajax system of diagonal play generally in a fluid 433. Michels was cruyffs manager at Ajax when cruyff was playing for the Ajax team. Rinus Michels style of play was then taken by cruyff when he became a manager.
No name, I'm not sure of any football managers job where results are irrelevant. Results will come into it.
No name, Rooney was hardly going to sign without getting a pay-rise was he? And you are right, Moyes is going nowhere.
There is several reasons why the deal went public.
A) To show the footballing world United is a force still.
B) Entice other world class players to come.
C) To get their share prices up.
D) Make other clubs/players jealous of the sheer wealth of the club.
E) To help distract from all the negativity and stories of players leaving.
Etc etc
So, all the right reasons then. no name? ;)
If anyone can be called the Father of Ajax and Barcelona then it is Vic Buckingham.
Yes ok Mort if you really are going to blow the dust off the books then it could be possibly attributed to him.
I would hardly think they would release them for a negative reason Andrew. Yes there could be side effects from it but I really doubt that is their intention ATM.
Btw I think I need to change my name as the post from the guy that left no name has been removed encase people think it was me hehe
