Hi Ed

Have u done a voting survey on best managers to replace AW? if not, let's do it. Atleast let's have around 10 options (don't include JM, AVB, Guardiola, rafa benitez).

cmon guys suggest some names, except the names mentioned above.

Ed accordingly choose the 10 most viable candidates. it will BE fun.

i suggest Klop, Joachim Löw, bergkamp, frank de boer, Ancelotti.

lets do it. {Ed027's Note - it would be best to do it here mate, come on guys put your suggestions forward

Why no Rafa? He's a damn good manager.

Him, Laudrup, Klopp, Loew, basically the usual suspects.

Klopp by a country mile, with money to spend too.


3.) 16 Aug 2013
Dragan Stojković, Michael Laudrup, Jupp Heynckes, Slaven Bilic or Rémi Garde?


4.) 16 Aug 2013
Atleast Rafa would spend some money.

Louis Van Gaal? Or my first choice Vincente Del Bosque


5.) 16 Aug 2013
Ancelotti WTF. He's with Real and I'm sure he wouldn't choose us over Real.

Usual suspects of course: Loew, Klopp or de Boer would be top of my list for safe choices.

But if Arsenal wants to do something different like they did in hiring some guy from Grampus, I would look seriously at: Diego Simeone, Vincenzo Montella, Sami Hyypia, Ole Gunner Solksjaer.

The fact the last two played for Liverpool and United would just add extra spice.

I notice I have no British managers there. Anyone's thoughts on potential a British manager out there?

Remi Garde, Martinez ( Everton manager) would probably be considered

I wouldn't mind Laudrup, he's probably most realistic and seems good choice Klopp wouldn't leave Dortmund for Arsenal Loew depends if he'd welcome club job. Carlo Ancelotti I would of loved as he just oozes class but recent RM appointment probably rules him out

He is off to Bayern Munich . they now have the 20 million from Gustavo as well. Guardiola actually wants Suarez not Lewandowski.
He is willing to play with Mandzukic, as Suarez suits his style of play. he likes players like suarez, villa, pedro, sanchez who play on the left side as winger as well as can come inside as a striker and score goals. Suarez is nightmare for defenders in one on one situations, plus a great finisher (which is also very important for his 4-3-3 setup).

Mandzukic is also a decent goal scorer and physically is nightmare for defenders, (Drogba kind of) plus does a lot of running and defending when not in possession of the ball, a trait which is crucial for his step. He can play Suarez as a central striker (then Mandzukic as Sub), Just like Messi, who use to play on the wings earlier) and Suarez can also come deep and provide assists as well (Similarly what Messi used to do) as well and use Ribery on the left and Robin or Muller on the right. This gives them - 4-3-3 .

if this happens Lewandowski is coming to AFC. He is the 30 million + add ons signing which was spoken few months back (i think by a person).

Source - Germany (Friend working at Volkswagen, Germany. Bayern Board HAS Volkswagen CEO as one of Directors. Wolfsberg is owned by Volkswagen owner. (POINT IS GUSTAVO)
