Derbados Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 We need a manager who’s prepared for a scrap and a dogfight, with experience of this league and the English game. for me it’s Cook or Jokanovic in that order, I honestly believe Paul Cook would have us challenging next season Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think he’ll be moving anytime soon Just want to play devils advocate here, but I don't think he went for the money. I read an article when he left Newcastle (https://metro.co.uk/2019/07/02/rafa-benitez-reveals-left-newcastle-neil-redfearn-enters-frame-replace-10102048/) where he said his preferred choice would have been to stay at Newcastle so he could develop them as a project and get them to be competitive in the Premier League, as opposed to managing Dalian Pro. The reason he left was due to lack of trust between Owner and Manager. With that in mind and also the fact that Dalian Pro are currently 7th out of 8th in Group A of the CSL, who knows. He may jump before he's pushed, and if the Sheikh has as much money as touted by some I can imagine it being an interesting proposition for Benitez. I would be very surprised if he came but stranger things have happened in football. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ramley Apple Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 I don't really understand the backlash Both Rafa and Jokanovic would be great appointments but both would cost the Earth and we've as much chance of seeing either of them in a dugout at PP as we have Elvis or Shergar Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yet 12 Million a Year Rafa is seriously favoured by many????? because Rafa is known worldwide, and serious money has been put on him. Generally a good tell tale is either movement in odds or variance (across different bookies) in odds. Jokanovic, whilst a good call, is not a well known name in management outside of Championship football fans. His odds are identical across all the bookies and haven't moved. Usually an indicator.

Bluedogmaz Posted November 15, 2020 Share Posted November 15, 2020 Incidentally Rafa has lost his last five matches in Chinese Super League with Dalian Pro only scoring two goals in those five matches!!! Sound familiar? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
