ETH out of United.

Conceicao close to OM after the talks broke down with Fonseca last week.

 

[Paulie Gualtieri]

I'll be very disappointed in De Zerbi if he joins United or Chelsea.

 

[bluesfan94]

So Chelsea, Man U, Barcelona, and Bayern are all looking for new managers, in terms of top tier jobs?

 

[hatterson]

I'm not sure I really care who the next manager is until the front office proves they've become a real modern organization.

 

[Juve]

https://x.com/i/web/status/1793311018736599407

I'm excited. It's first time in a long time I'd be actually looking forward to watch a Juve game. I just want to watch a game that doesn't give me heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, and my anxiety level go up the roof.

 

[Chimaera]

But but but ETH has all the support of ownership

 

[Savant]

Let’s see RDZ at Bologna

McKenna from Ipswich is going to get a big job, which is going to be a bummer because he was (probably) Ipswich best chance of staying up

 

[Jussi]

Seems DiMarzio is the only one claiming it and some aggregator account tweets with the claim are no longer available.

Fab says it's "still open":

There's only room for one Dutch bald fraud in the league at a time. ETH must go.

Fans of the 18 other teams in the league just got together and we've unanimously agreed that we're fine with making an exception to allow both dutch bald frauds for next season. ETH can stay.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

all of the people here calling Slot a bald fraud are gonna have a lot of egg on their face when Liverpool finish 10th next season

It's all certainly possible. Change to a new manager will be a difficult task.

He never had his full team dude!

 

[Incubajerks]

I think Gasperini is going to Napoli, Italiano maybe is going to Bologna. There will be a lot of movement on these benches: Napoli, Bologna, Fiorentina, Torino and Atalanta. I don't know if I like the choice of Fonseca for Milan.

I would be surprised if Gasperini left now. They've qualified to CL and have a pretty good squad.

Whereas Napoli haven't qualified and have probably some key players wanting to leave.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

I have seen zero indication that Gasperini is going anywhere

Walter White vs Hank Schrader

 

[Jussi]

It would be tragically hilarious if ETH became the SECOND Dutch manager United fire AFTER winning the FA Cup.

 

[Jersey Fresh]

It's just a clown show. I don't buy the he left amicable stuff. Of course they'd say that. He might have been willing to go (right now is a good time to be a free agent manager), but I don't think either side is great with having to start over again with a new manager.

Of course it's a clown show, it's a club run by accountants. When they tailspin in November it will all start up again.

I mean you look at all these candidates for the Chelsea position; and they all play completely differently. They have no idea what they are looking for. They just want a figurehead yes-man. They want the shiny new toy, and they’ll throw them away when they get bored. But they’ll probably fall up eventually because they spend a ton of money. It’s what Chelsea does

This is also true. The Athletic deep-dive was pretty much just deep-throating this Boehly/Eghbali vanity project, but the over-arching idea was they wanted someone that would agree with their method of structure and personnel. And Pochettino knew he was on an island of one as far as knowing what the hell is going on from a football perspective.

Careful I said all this last year too and was tarred and feathered

Kompany is really going to get the Bayern job

Ex players failing up .

According to Sir Jim in Forbes magazine a while ago:

This is not about the manager, if you look at Manchester United in the last 11 years, it's not doing terribly, none of the managers have done terribly well. There's been some really good coaches that have come to Manchester United so you know the conclusion from that has to be that the environment for the coach has not been a successful one because none of them have been successful. And, you know, Erik's working in that same environment, so our focus is on how do we change that environment and the structure that provides the environment for the coach.

Apparently Nice's coach is the new Ajax coach.

 

[Evilo]

Kompany to Bayern

 

[spintheblackcircle]

Ange hasn't been there a year and he's the 10th longest serving manager in the PL.
