Hughes Outers- Name names

Why would say Rijkaard be unrealistic? He's availible and it's hard to imagine a job offer coming along any time soon that's better than ours, if it becomes a job offer that is. :)

It is a shame Marcello Lippi took up the Italy job again; he is one of the most overlooked managers in world football.
No, he just rejects every job which isn't the Italy job.

As others have said...

Ancelotti
Mancini
Rijkaard
Mourinho
Jol

Fucking hell, even Woy Hodgson looking at the way he totally out-managed Hughes today!

Woy is a far superior manager to hughes.

I think this thread was intended to be a trap set for Hughes Outers to fall into. Basically, any top managers suggested (Mourinho, Rikaard, Van Gaal etc) would be ridiculed as being unrealistic. Who actually knows how unrealistic any of these managers are? I lost faith in Hughes a long time ago, but i've always felt that he should be given until the end of the season to prove his worth. However, if we lose on Thursday night, I no longer see the point in prolonging his agony, as we would have nothing to play for in the remaining games. He should be sacked and replaced by a caretaker manager until the end of the season. This would allow our owners to 'go public' in their search for a replacement, and then we would see who is available and who isn't available. The appointment could then be made at the end of the season, and the new man could hit the ground running. These extra few weeks gained could make all the difference in planning for the transfer window and selecting/approaching the new mans chosen targets.
I think if we want someone new to take over it's gotta be as soon a possible, if we wait until the end of the season then we are back in the process of a manager starting all over again. We get a manager in say next monday, for example, he has then got until the end of the season to see our lads play, train and interact with each other. He can also judge who he would like in next years squad and who is capable to get us where we want. Otherwise what does the new manager get to see, a bunch of players on their summer holidays and a pre season warm up.
 
Mancini and Rijkaard are big names but left their last jobs under a cloud

How do we know they could do a job at City which wont be easy

It's sad to see Hughes management come to an end, partly because there is no ovious replacement.

I'd go for big Phil Scolari. Get him in now, before the end of the season, and let him see what we have got so that next season will be less of a learnng curve
 
I`m going to name managers that are likely to come and not managers that we could only dream about coming so....
Martin Jol
Martin O Neill
Frank Rijkaard

Martin Jol? Rijkaard? Mourinho cant see him at Inter next year. My sunday league gaffer at least he would buy decent palyers and display a bit of tactical knowledge.
 
Capello - Double your money offer.

Impossible, but he is just what we need. He doesn't take any shit, ie Jo on the lash and Robi disappearing, and he is tactically sound. We'd be boring but very successful.
