Am so disappointed by this. He had such a good record at Dortmund, finishing second in the Bundesliga behind Bayern Munich. And the official reason - that he wants more time off - sounds well fishy. He has been out of work since December.Oh my word this is bananas
He sounds first class. A shame.Am so disappointed by this. He had such a good record at Dortmund, finishing second in the Bundesliga behind Bayern Munich. And the official reason - that he wants more time off - sounds well fishy. He has been out of work since December.
It's possible. But everything had been agreed, including presumably, spending plans. Also Favre has a reputation for bringing young academy players into the squad.I imagine, very sadly, at the heart of all of this is money. I don't blame Palace for not wanting to over invest but there are prospective manangers
probably wanting loads of dosh on top of which they will probably want lots of their own back room staff and on top of that, lots of money to spend on desperately needed new young players. It really needs resolving. quickly. But, I am not getting my hopes up.
How's his English?Funnily enough I looked earlier this morning and the talk was of Fonseca. PV would certainly be interesting. He seems like a good guy, but I have no idea what he would be like as a manager. I guess he would command respect and might be able to attract some decent players. Is he a carrot or stick manager? Is he straight, up front and honest?
His record isn't that great only 2 clubs and not particularly impressive at either. Coincidentally, at Nice he took over from Lucien Favre.Funnily enough I looked earlier this morning and the talk was of Fonseca. PV would certainly be interesting.

WorryingThe news doesn't improve Just one out-of-contract Crystal Palace player reports for pre-season
All this talk of Viera Etc. is just a smoke screen while we wait to announce who our new manager will really be.
It cannot be announced yet as he is a little busy at the moment and does not want to be distracted from his
current successful task. Expect an announcement around 11th or 12th July

I love SelhurstWill Crystal Palace sort out that dreadful stadium?
Put some resources out for the fans instead of it all going to overpaid players, agents, management and so on.
How much did Tottenham, or even Fulham spend on their upgrade?
At least those clubs had fans in mind, even if ticket prices are an absolute rip off.
