[Schad]

I take it this guy is good.

A manager who has achieved some pretty stunning upsets through a dogged team ethic that revolves around fearlessly attacking opponents, no matter their stature. We could do with one of those.

Does he speak English? (sorry to sound like gmi)

Basic. Enough to talk to the players in it, but not the media. Sounds familiar....

I want Koeman more now!

Well his preferred formation works for us...(as does his stature, and wouldn't it be nice to have a lairy manager?)

Haven't had a manager that gets to the point in a few years have we?

He'd certainly get under other people's skin, which could be fun (and **** me, he'd want to clatter Spurs).

I know RK was linked with WHU but that obviously never came to fruition. I wonder why this was the case

 

[Drummerhero]

I'm backin' Yakin. I'll even go as far to say I'm pretty excited about all this now.

Me too. Onwards.

Ralph Krueger!?

oh dear, you've found a deal breaker.

edit: neither appears to have a middle name either.

Just watched a few clips of Mr Yakin on Youtube. He scored a goal from about 60 - 70 yards out. That will do for me...

Should be able to score from the dugout then.
