So... Know-it-all Dave is 'hopeful' rather than 'confident'.

Interesting.


whats with all the sniping and cheap shots going on in this forum?

I don't think it's as bad now as it has been in the past. But then again, I'm not getting involved anymore.

In this case he's categorically denied it. "Impossible"... why would he be so definite if he'd been speaking to us or whatever already?

Maybe because he wants to throw people of a certain scent ;-)

Remember Sven 2 weeks before he took our job? And he wasn't in a job.<br /><br />-- Thu Apr 14, 2011 3:38 pm --<br /><br />

I suspect those two sentences are not entirely unconnected...;-)
 
I'm posting this by stealth at work, avoiding the boss's eyes so apologies if this has already been posted about Sven turning down the city job.

Err...Sven didn't say he wasn't coming, just that no meetings had taken place.

That was his agent. Sven himself, when asked on television if I remember correctly, if he was joining City, said "No no no no" and the presenter pushed as to why not and he said "there are bigger jobs".

That's from memory.

Anyone who places any importance on this comment has no knowledge of the game, contracts and negotiations. It's as simple as that.

I think the league is beyond him. Copa De Rey, don't think Real heirachy give a shit about that.

But it's interesting for me how Jose was trying to emphasise what an achievement and that it was eight years since they reached the Champs League semis.

That tells me it's shit or bust.

Even in his first year at Inter, Jose was able to deliver trophies and buy himself more time.
As I've said every time the subject of Real Madrid comes up, their arrogance is almost unfathomable. Seriously, they make the rags look like the most humble, selfless people in creation. Maybe winning the Copa del Rey could do it... if they thump Barca by three goals. Other than that, he best win the semifinal if the league is out of reach.
 
Mourinho said "impossible" because it is unethical to discuss thing like this while the manager Mancini is still in the job.

But Mancini accepted this Man City job even before Sparky was sacked. That could be unethical.

Perhaps this was the reason some players like Tevez and Bellamy were so furious. And Sparky was so fed up about Mancini as well.

The difference is, Mancini didn't need Bellamy, thus Bellamy got kicked out. The club need Tevez (the owner likes him, not Mancini), thus Tevez stayed.

Ever since Sparky was sacked, Tevez has been looking to leave already. So can't blame Tevez.

If Sparky stayed, Tevez would stayed for long. Simple as that.
