Phoenix Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 This is the man who was recently being touted as the Wenger approved replacement at Arsenal. I think he'll do.Ah, but Moyes was the Ferguson approved replacement at Man Utd.Just saying... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kernow Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Because most people would have heard of him.He's been on my radar since: http://www.theguardian.com/football/2013/mar/08/paul-clement-englishman-psg He's an exciting prospect. No one can read the future but as appointments go this is a good one. Don't worry DEL just presumes that because he hadn't heard of him, anybody else saying anything positive about Clement has clearly never heard of him either.

Diag Ram Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 It's a gamble because of his inexperience, but he does have strong contacts all over Europe. Definite cause for optimism! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
unclej Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Moyes may have made mistakes but he had no chance to succeed at Manure. The players never accepted him.The combined age of the Man U midfield at the time of his taking over was 142 yrs. Fergie left at entirely the right moment. Nothing about whether the players accepted him. A great many positions in the team had to filled with new players. It was also a hospital pass for Moyes but he fancied himself for the job.

Given that Scholes had retired and Giggs barely played.The players didn't want to play for him, and no one wanted to join. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ramsbottom Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Can't see us getting Warburton.I rate him as a manager but wasn't the dispute at Brentford over having control of the transfers? Brentford are planning to implement a system that we currently utilise, if he's left Brentford for that reason, he won't join us surely?Strictly speaking the system Brentford are about to implement is a more analysis/stats based approach to recruiting, that would've given him no say in who was bought. Ours is based around a large scouting network and "on the ground intel", providing the manager with a number of different options for the manager to decide who he wants. The DoF then works on the deal through to completion.#justsaying Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also worth remembering that David Gill retired the same time as Fergie, so Moyes was left with a CEO trying to do deals when nobody had heard of him before. Moyes' targets top players (Fabregas, Alacantra etc.) but qithout Gill's savy he didn't stand a chance of getting any of them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Salford ram Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 We got loads of good loans in with Mac, do u think this new guy, will be able to attract the same caliber of loans ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eustonstation Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 We got loads of good loans in with Mac, do u think this new guy, will be able to attract the same caliber of loans ?I expect he will. He may never have been a head coach before, but he's a highly touted prospect with experience at some of the top clubs in Europe. Based on that alone, agents will at least return phone calls. Let's just hope none of those agents are Aidy Ward. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dimmu Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 Sounds like good appointment, but he has to be too. Mac left big (but leaky) boots to fill, especially if you compare those to Clough's flip-flops.BTW Castilla's team is pretty sausage, but PSG's academy is one of the bests in the world...Interesting times ahead!

ram1964 Posted May 26, 2015 Share Posted May 26, 2015 the fact that we have had 3 weeks to sack Mack and I would imagine the board have been considering options whilst we were failing in the latter part of the season..I cannot believe that they would not have been in talks and assured of replacing him before his sacking.If they have failed to accomplish this and we are in a position of no one already being appointed the board have shown as much aptitude as Steve in being able to plan ahead.i would suspect Clement to have agreed terms but doesn't officially leave Real till next week ,hence the delay in any announcementAll other managers being connected to the club appear to be inappropriate and of a lesser class than Steve.I. Appreciate Clement is unproven but with his experience working with top professionals and elite clubs could be a wise gamble. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dale The Ram Posted May 27, 2015 Share Posted May 27, 2015 Be interesting to see where Ancelotti ends up next...Out of the 7 teams he has managed, he only managed Milan for more than 2 years.He always seems like a highly rated manager who doesn't really get the time to make a squad his own.I hope he has a year off and then goes to Man City and gets time and money to develop a team. I think that's his ideal fit. Old team in need of a complete reshuffle and a inexperienced/not internationally renowned 'franchise' (as in Depay and other foreign players would see Man U over Man City due to the history). A great manager who can be trusted with the Man City money. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
