Anyone hear the rumour that the players wanted RVN to get the full time role and they refused to train for the Chelsea match and he had to persuade them to train?

Prob a load of crap but would be funny if true
It sums the dysfunctional twats up to a tee.

The new fella wanted to wait until the end of the season.

They could have tied him up to start in the summer, put the horse in as interim for this season, and started the new manager off on a positive footing for the new season.

Instead they have created this comedy scenario where he sounds like he was press-ganged into it!

Dickheads.

They also reckon that the fact Amorin stated in his press conference that he had an offer from other clubs, one offering to pay wages 3 times as much to get him is proof that we were in for him.....

I hope that is just talk and the usual crap that manangers/players say to appease fans or get them onside when they are moving between clubs - there wouldnt be many teams to think it wasnt us if it is true...PSG potentially...Madrdi but would either of those 2 be looking to replace their manager this summer when we know we possibly are.....

If we were in for him we would have got him.
 
And as sure as night follows day the surge of lemmings to the cliff top shows no sign of abating.

Manchester United are among three of Europe's top clubs tracking Real Madrid's 24-year-old Brazil forward Vinicius Jr, while a one billion euros contract offer is on the table. (Relevo, via Teamtalk)

TBH I don’t think anyone is beyond them right now. Nobody is out of reach. After all this is traford red sox we are talking about here .

And I actually do think they could derail literally anyone’s career.

Well that's bollocks for a start.
It's says the rags are among 3 other top European teams in for him.
They're hardly in the top 3 teams in the north West of England never fucking mind europe
 
maybe...maybe not...supposedly whoever this other team said he had to wait...utd said now or never and so he chose them.....

could all be crap however
Do you seriously think any manager would turn down City to go to the swamp???
All they have to offer is Thursday night football and a Mish mash of a squad..

depends on the person I guess.

Amorin is relatively inexperienced so he may see going there as a real chance to show he can do something ....or as a stepping stone to something bigger (which would be hilarious)

I guess the other way to look at it is that whoever does come to city when Pep leaves will initially be in the shadow of the most successful manager not only for us but anywhere in world football - again someone of lesser experience might not fancy that.

Whoever takes on City after Pep is going to have to deal with that shadow....if they come in and inherit a title winning team no matter what success they have you just know that the media will spin it as its been done off of Peps back - but does the new man come in and risk changing things (which we know wont work as the whole club from under 6's to first team is set up to play in one way - Peps style) - there are a lot of coaches who might not fancy that....

its going to take someone of not just immense ability but also a fantastically strong individuality and personality to take over from Pep......its almost a thankless job

That might put us in a similar situation as trafford rangers, being controlled from top to bottom by Slur alex and look how that turned out.

A certain Mr Kompany springs to mind, at least as mentally strong and single-minded. Whether he has the coaching ability to go with them is another matter. He has certainly made a great impression so far.

Agreed on the personality part...not sure on the coaching bit yet....nowhere near the experience....and lets face it managing bayern in a two horse league is nowhere near managing in the prem

exactly what I was thinking...the only difference is that Pep wont be literally hanging around the club/training ground stinking the place up and still having direct influence

I think the one redeeming feature is that we have the finished article in the overall set up. I get the feeling that the next manager will be right and will fit within the system we have from the off. We have strong foundations in place. Utd, for eg, was built on sand.

This all sounds like a mix up of what's been stated. Amorin said wait until the end of the season and United said now or never. Also United trippled his current wages.

Do you think, if Amoron said no, that the rags would have gone all out to get Ian Holloway?

you got the first part right but reportedly he has said another club offered him 3 times more and he turned them down...easily could be seen as proganda to help him with his move for both the Sporting fans and rag fans however
