Can he speak English?

I doubt it, but look at Nesta, he learnt pretty quickly. He didn't know much before he moved to america



@ ani, yes it would. He's the perfect replacement, and just what United need to sober up and get a hold of themselves. Obviously it's extremely unlikely if he does actually leave, it isn't gonna be united

Edit: In other news De Sciglio has just recently spoken to Sky in an exclusive interview. De Sciglio himself said that he wants to follow Maldinis footsteps, but should the club be forced to sell him in order to establish or save the clubs economy, then he will listen to offers that have come in.

When will it end, Berlusconi? When will you stop this ratchetness. It's unbearable seeing our players with a heart get shipped away against their will.

Edit2: man that interview tears me up. I love Nesta

It could go either way. He could manage to build a team and fire them up, but I believe his aggressive style would just cause tension and not do anything for a good team spirit. also he's not used to manage players like Rooney.

But yeah it's highly unlikely anyway.

[Gentlemans]

Looking forward to Giggs "I have i idea what i'm doing." Pics

Steve Mclaren is the best shout IMO. Proven club manager, worked with Ferguson, plays good football. Bottled it with England but he's a club manager.

[perrierAX]

never heard him speak english.

edit: he doesn't.

That would rule him out straight away IMO.

Steve Mclaren is a good shout.

Rumours Mourinho still wants it.

Imagine the boiled piss.

In once again. Would post more but busy working on my dissertation.

You want chitty, boring footy?

Mourinho never wanted the job in the first place.

@Tasevski dont add any new knts who post once ITT and leave.

Uniteds best option is Pochettino. Young and proven in the PL, actually promising, agressive approach to games and if you get him I assume itll help poach some Soton players.

alright, figured I saw too many new faces.

[Mark_O.]

add me to the bayern munich list

[Harrock]

I disagree. Klopp has succeeded motivating young players and developing cheap good players. I don't think he wants to deal with Rooney, van Persie, Vidic etc. Not to mention you still have Giggs, who has been shagging his brothers wife longer than Klopp has been a coach...

I just don't see it.

You think Lewandowski isnt a big personality?

I don't think Klopp is coming to United but I think you've discredited us a bit there. Vidic is gone, Giggs and Ferdi are most likely retiring, we have some good younger players in Mata, Kagawa, Januzaj, Smalling, Rafael, Jones, Zaha, Welbeck, De Gea and so on, plenty of people for Klopp to come in and develop. Throw on top of that a big transfer kitty for Klopp to sign players with and I think Utd is a tempting prospect.

The guy loves Dortmund though, definitely think he won't be coming.

Why is Zaha on this list? Will never make it at United.

I just don't see the real motivation for Klopp to leave right now. His reputation is still building at Dortmund and moving to United at this point would be a downgrade for at least a season imo.

Yeah, maybe I exaggerated a bit. My point was that he is not proven to deal with the egos of players making $500k a week and I don't see why he would leave BVB. Personally I wouldn't and I mean no offence by that.
That being said Klopp has stated that he doesn't see himself as the Fergie of BVB and he will def coach another team...

Madrid seems a good club for him when they decide to sack Ancelotti. Can't be too far off.

lol at everyone thinking ferguson is out of this world. Conte is Italys Ferguson, they fire up their players in the same spirit and chop their heads off if they perform poorly.

edit: with that said, your best replacement is conte. srs

LOL @ this feminist acting like Conte and SAF should be spoken in the same breath. Son.

[Sharylandbrah]

How well would David Luiz work for Barcelona?

Go back to last season and replace "Pochettino" with "Moyes" and "Soton" with "Everton". Wouldn't work IMO.

For a job like United, IMO the manager needs to have won trophies and know the club inside out. Mclaren fits the bill.

[Gentlemans]

What's even funnier is calling out Arsenal fans on ******** who wanted Moyes to replace Wenger last season. HAHAHAHAHHAAHAA

[TASEVSKI]

^ oh harrock with a personal insult, have you and slip switched places now? Slippy hasn't been flaming as much lately.

have you ever heard the phrase "if you dont have anything good to say, shut up"? Suits you when you know jack about Serie A. Quite embarassing since you're 31 years old, one would assume you'd know a bit more about Serie A. Poverty knowledge is poverty

[Harrock]

How well would David Luiz work for Barcelona?

Barca needs a CB who is good with his feet and can organize the back line. Thiago Silva would have fit the bill before the move. Luiz is good with his feet but his defending isn't very good and he has no positional discipline to speak of. Barca will probably buy him.

Wow i must have really destroyed you, calling you a feminist and all. Is there a bit of truth there? Why so upset?

You say "lol @ people talking like fergie is out of this world" then try to act like Conte is on his level. Sorry for calling you out on that bull****.

You are right though i don't pay a ton of attention to Serie A, poverty league is poverty.

1) Was trying to make my list as big as possible.

2) Guy hasn't had much of a chance at Utd, still think he has potential to come good.

[TASEVSKI]

^harrock cringeworthy lmao, do u have a wife/gf?

Edit: take it as a no then, harrock. Figured as much...

[Rai9]

Conte might be a good choice, but comparing him to Ferguson is being a potato. Stop it Tavenski.

[anibani]

he didnt say conte is on fergusons level. you guys need to read. he just said he has a similar style to manage the team.

calm down.

we all know Fergy is the GOAT of all GOATs

[TASEVSKI]

lol at everyone thinking ferguson is out of this world. Conte is Italys Ferguson, they fire up their players in the same spirit and chop their heads off if they perform poorly.

Did I say Conte was equal Ferguson? No, I said Conte is Italys version of Fergie. Reading comprehension m8

brb ferguson is a God, he cant be compared to any coach in any era

edit: ^ wizard ani

Look @ Brendan he was just managing a championship side not too long ago. They need a hungry/young manager who can fire people up and stick the winning mentality. Conte/Klopp/Simeone are pipe dreams right now. No top manager is going to leave their club to manage a 7th place United. Pochettino would get rid of all Uniteds geezers and get some good youngsters and build a dynasty srs, he's out to win

[Fabzulous]

Don't think it's been mentioned here but I think Carlos Queiroz would be a decent next manager, was at the club for 5 years and was apparently highly influential during his time here.

where is this pochetinnos winning mentality, he hasn't won schit in England. too much of a big job for him. Another inexperienced manager.

Being young and hungry only gets you so far.

If you think that all the young players at Southampton are down to him, then you are severely mistaken

completely agree with bezz, you're on spread. People ITT are just potato when it comes to coaches, everything doesn't revolve around experience or amount of trophies won, huge part is played by how good of a motivator the coach is. A team that has a winner mentality in their spine is hard to beat (Conte with Juve, Fergie with Utd for example)

It's funny because even in the Championship we'll still be playing against more quality opposition than if you were in there Scottish league.
