Emery?

There was us worying they would be going for someone absolutely top class.

Wonder how far down their list of targets he was?

 

[Sneech]

Does he 'get' the club and the region though, after all they keep telling us thats all they want in a manager.

I mean, that was obviously Steve Bruces failing.......what with him coming from the area and that.

 

[Rokerparkpies]

To be fair to Dick Emery..he knows La Liga is a financially knackered atm..
A large % of TV money goes to Barca and Madrid so that freezes out the lesser teams...
His decision (if he leaves) is purely a financial one..no more no less.
Obviously in Spain the football is a touch slower and arguably more technical.
But to leave to go into a relegation battle I question his motives..he didn't exactly pull up any trees at Arsenal.
Only my opinion FWIW.

He was another that was in tears when the takeover went through. It’s weird how much he needs approval from them. Hope he’s another that never steps foot in the SOL again.

So was khashoggi's widow weirdly enough.

 

[Hardyman's Yugo]

Probably just ensuring he gets his £6M

Exactly

He once ate a Gregg's sausage roll.

Emery didn't want Pepe though. He didn't have a lot of say in the signings. He wanted Zaha, Banega, Kondogbia and got none of them. Mind you looking at those names it's maybe for the best.

He's not charismatic and I think his style of play will reflect that.

Weren't we linked with Banega under Poyet many Premier League moons ago?

 

[richest]

I think as long as we're within touching distance of safety by January, we'll be fine.

How many points behind is that?

 

[Skaddnhotpies]

How many points behind is that?

At least 10

 

[Safc88]

No official approach then, heavens forbid they have tapped him up

It wont really matter if they have met his release clause

Yep, cracking footballer on the continent, obviously unknown how he’d have done here

 

[prideofhylton]

Dragged up? From someone defending genocidal psycopaths?

And from Newcastle ffs!

 

[Mr Redknapp]

What an absolute Horlicks they have made of this appointment

 

[Mackemmichael]

Emery would be good looking at how shite they are. They were deluded thinking the likes of Conte were going to rock up

 

[Secret Visage]

Another day passes and still no manager at Murderers United.

 

[Skaddnhotpies]

Would they be happy with a manger with a name like u-neigh Emery might get a punch of one of the deluded lot ?

 

[jazz]

I think it's a good appointment, and I rate him as a manager. He's done canny at Villareal and was excellent at Sevilla. He's won the Europa League 4 times in 8 years and a losing finalist once. Arsenal wasn't the job for him, Newcastle are more suited to him I think if they are ran correctly going forward. Hope it all goes wrong like

Were any of them bottom of the league when he took over

Sounds like they've deliberately leaked it. Remains to be seen why at this point.

 

[Oliver Hardy]

Why are they not clamouring for their Messiah Rafa? is it a bit like, why have a Digestive when you can have a Chocolate Biscuit?

 

[Fetch Fletch]

Ah well, he will suit us well then.

I honestly think you’d be better to get to the end of the season, see where you are, then get a new manager.

as it stands, IF you went down, the kind of person you’re targeting, I’ve no doubt they’d be off in a flash.
