Enzo Maresca

FFS just make Rodri player manger for the next season, getting tired of these cunts screwing us over for misdemeanours when the whole fucking lot of them arse, rags, dips, chavs, spuds etc are rotten to the core.

Season only ended about 10 days ago. What's the panic?

 

[TonyM]

I thought that Sinatra was more Doobee Doobee Doo...

You learn something everyday I suppose...;)

I think you are right. And for that reason, I am out!

 

[bluemoon32]

But he is the coach that City have identified.

Yes and i'll back him to the hilt, not that it means anything if i didn't but there are other coaches out there

Oh for yesterday and single digit numbers.

 

[dadnlad]

ssn have inside track .....chelsea...... So he's on holiday with his family

 

[blueparrot]

So can the Premier League charge Liverpool with Iraola ? he announces he’s leaving Bournemouth in April, knowing Liverpool wants him, even more the case with Liverpool that they have the ex-footballing director of Bournemouth

No idea and really don’t care it isn’t our problem and for me when we appoint or announce Maresca isn’t my problem. It will be done when its done. As for transfers the club and Maresca will know and have discussed at length who they want who they don’t want what profile of players and Vianna will be working on that whether Maresca appointed today ,tomorrow or next month.

 

[Ray bloody Purchase]

Errrmmmm…..how much did they just get fined?……£10M?

 

[blueparrot]

If getting Maresca wasn’t already bad enough, we have to pay Chelsea for this tool.

What sort of dick describes our new manager as a tool ?

OK. It would not be the end of the world but I struggle to think of many other coaches that I would like at City and who are available.

Maybe so but Maresca wouldn't have been many people's first choice before it all came out either.

True, but it was signposted when Maresca's said that City had contacted him in October. We chose not to believe it because we wanted Pep to stay.

 

[Nicholas van Whatsisface]

I don’t really know why people are panicking and getting bent out of shape about this one.

It’s clearly evident he’s going to be our Manager next season, so it’s not like we’re operating in an uncertain scenario which needs addressing - and in a World Cup year he wouldn’t be actively doing much right now anyway (given the players are all otherwise engaged at the moment) which he can’t do already in terms of planning for the season ahead.

It’s not like he’s forbidden from thinking about City at all til we’ve sorted out the legal impediments to him joining us. He’ll be planning already - which is all he’d be doing at this stage either way.

Our DoF is in charge of transfers, so it’s not like we operate some old school structure where Maresca would be managing player acquisition - so that shouldn’t be impacted in any way.

If it’s just a case of fans wanting to see an official confirmation and welcome interview on the Club website because they’re a bit bored before the World Cup, then I hardly think that should be a factor in influencing the Club’s thinking in any way.

I can’t see the urgent issue on this one at all.

It’s going to happen - that much is plain for anyone to see.

Most of the transfers will have been started on 12 months ago.

Most transfers won’t have changed from when we didn’t know what Peps decision was to him finally letting us know. Find it very surprising so many City fans think we need the manager in place before we can do anything, when they can see how we work and have since we appointed Txiki and Pellegrini.

True, lets be honest, he hasn't got a great cv as a head coach, forget that pre season friendly bollocks cup.
Chelsea fans i've talked to have been pretty scathing about his time there but like you said, our club believe he's the man for us & we all hope that he is.

 

[Rammy Blue]

If it's at the lawyers' stage i would not hold any hopes of them signing any time soon ? Chelsea will play the game and keep it on going for weeks even months

Give it a rest, chill out.

 

[waspish]

So could chelsea theoretically act like cunts and block or delay this move? What will happen? If not sorted by July?

Yes they could drag it out because they could say if you didn’t tap him up we more than likely of got top 5 then champs league money of upto 150m! They are Americans they are only interested in how to get make money from anything they can! Unless they want us to pay up Maresca full contract and we just negotiating down from that! But Chelsea down care how long they drag it out like posted! We are fine too for at least 4/6 weeks!

He’s done pretty much what was expected of him, probably surpassed it too. While I’d have quite liked Vinny if he was available, that’s probably much more assuring than Bayern fans felt when they appointed him after relegation. I’m looking forward to seeing us next season.
