Anorthernsoul 1221 Posted March 8, 2016 Share Posted March 8, 2016 When has Benitez been in a relegation battle? Champ Manager 1997 according to his Facebook Bio. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Fish 10682 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Would have voted Benitez if I thought it was possible. Went Moyes because we're about his level, he definitely an upgrade on McClaren and some of the other options are terrifying and I didn't want to click the radio button by their name in case it made it happen.

Holden McGroin 6471 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Id be very happy with Moyes or Benitez. I think Rodgers might be good long term but getting him in to save us now would be the biggest risk of the 3. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StoneColdStephenIreland 74 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 It's going to be McLaren isnt it Maybe I'm being pessimistic but if they were determined on getting a replacement he'd have been sacked by now. They're deliberating over the decision and if they were determined to get someone in they'd be offering all the money and promises in the world.

Holden McGroin 6471 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Seemingly openly talking to other managers while we still have one is despicable to McClaren (even if he should walk) They dont have the balls to sack him immediately and if we cant find someone to take over McClaren, they'll pat him on the back and tell him he is the man. Its a lose-lose situation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Kelly 1219 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I voted for Benitez but without any hope he would actually come. Is it possible to get someone like Benitez here? Yes I think it is. Is it possible for Charnley to get him here? Absolutely not! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ausman 0 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 Voted Benitez, would love it, if came about. Back to reality, I'm sure Ashley will go for some one like Pearson. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kevin Carr's Gloves 3809 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I don't understand the desire for Benitez to be honest, he has never battled relegation successfully and had very little success in the second tier of any league. He has done well with teams expected to do well (comparatively) but has also been sacked for under performing at those clubs as well. I don't see what he will do for us.

I guess that's a possibility it could be our players think highly of themselves and see the brolly wally as beneath them. I suppose Benitez would be considered a step up from thaa and could get them playing to their full potential. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJS 4365 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I think at the moment we just need someone who can pick the right team and have some kind of game plan. Anything beyond that is a bonus. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

McClaren and Carver (probably the king too) never seemed to have the players respect and certainly couldn't organise them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Oi Steve fuck off mate, Lee says you're sacked so do one eh?" "Errm Lee said that? come on Nigel you couldn't have waited for this to end?" "It's Mr Pearson to you, you balding prick.

ewerk 30221 Posted March 9, 2016 Share Posted March 9, 2016 I was thinking of a Generation Game style conveyor belt with McClaren going off the edge of the stage into a bucket of gunge as the new manager's seat reaches the microphone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
