  1. To be fair, Sporting themselves paid 15m euros to Braga, which makes him 5th most expensive and an insane amount for a Portuguese team to pay never mind a PL team. Maybe there is something there worth investing in.
  2. He's oversaw two managerial appointments so far: Dean Smith: Good Steven Gerrard: Bad That's 50% success rate so far. I'll give him the next one before looking him gone.
  3. Sadly no. Should have happened after Smith.
  4. One thing I will say for Amorim, he brought through some youth players at Sporting. Would be interesting to see what he could do with our academy players.
  5. It would be a huge statement; in fact, it would be the most ever paid for a manager, the record which is currently Nagelsmann to Bayern for £21m, recently equaled by Potter to Chelsea.
  6. Amorim sounds good on paper, but so did Gerrard. I would have preferred Poch or Emery, but they are looking unlikely.
  7. Start hoofing? We've been hoofing since Simth was here.
  8. How would Dyche ball even work with our players?
  9. At least sacking Gerrard now before the WC means no Southgate. We can all be happy with that regardless who we get.
  10. But the bloke from Sporting or the bloke from Salzburg do it regularly in the Champions League. Slippy didn't
  11. This is my concern with Frank. He's in a good setup at Brentford, moving him to Villa Park doesn't mean that setups comes with him. I think he would struggle with our current players, it would take a few windows to get the team right.
  12. I can't see him leaving Roma, seems to be enjoying it there.
  13. I think so, it was in London. Could be a blessing, if it was in Leeds or Nottingham, Gerrard might still be here.
  14. Sarri? Mancini? or Just having a holiday
  15. He could use that as a negotiating tactic, ask for total control in transfers as part of any deal. He won't get that at an 'elite' club.
  16. Well, they did sell 100m worth of players in the summer.
  17. But KKH could thrive in such a setup.
  18. I think he was just linked to Mendes FC because he's Portuguese
  19. They've made their money on it. Odds starting to drift out now
  20. He has got other things correct before confirmed, i'm sure someone posted a list in a previous page.
  21. I know it's bookies, but Amorim is no 1/1 on SkyBet, massive drop.
  22. Bookies probably made a nice wee profit there putting him fav with decent odds.
  23. Gallardo not even in the betting. Can see why. He's the appointment we should have made after Dean, probably deemed too much of a risk now having not managed in Europe. Will likely end up in France, Spain or Italy now.
