    I wonder what style of play he will adopt - is he a fan of Deeney? Would be interested to see whether he wants to keep him or let him go and use the money to build a side he wants. Cannot believe he will not be totally involved before 1st July. Suspect his contract officially expires at the end of June or something like that.

    not sure if he is an upgrade over Walter. They both are very similar IMHO.

    If he can reproduce this form we will be happy enough, providing the style suits us.

    Estoril P 116 -- W 54 -- 46.55%
    Sporting P 53 -- W 31 -- 58.49%
    Olympiakos P 48 -- W 38 -- 79.17%

    guess Walter had equally impressive if not better record in the Continent.

    WM's average win record is less than 40% - does not begin to compare with MS. Also WM would never get he best out of players not speaking English. Massive improvement to me.

    Good work to get Silva in quickly.

    Hopefully he earns the trust of the players and is able to turn us into a well discliplined fit team..

    That would be a start!

    And speaking the lingo will help too.

    I am absolutely devastated by this - I so much wanted a guy called Slutsky who used to climb up trees looking for pussy. <wah> Good luck to the new guy - he can't help having the same nationality as moaning Maureen.

    He must believe in us and our ambition or he could easily have gone elsewhere - I don't see him as the sort to "settle" for second best

    Who are these people - Palace are nothing special - next year most Prem teams will be all competing for 8th place as the first 7 places are mostly given. We have as much chance as any

    I suspect it's a 'big club, little club' thing...
