Antonio Conte has admitted he will consider "other projects" after Juventus saw off Roma 1-0 on Sunday.

Wow... and you'd half expect Ancelotti to be let go aswell. Lots of good managers on the market, unfortunately we're next rung to Man U, Juventus and Real Madrid... if they decide to go nuclear and flick Ancelotti.

Can't see any of them going for FdB though so we should still be in the driving seat on that front

I want to know how these people know Benitez has told the board he wants the job, rather than just jumping on Levy's back.

I really like what i see in this vid , for any who still questions about how FdB team playing style compare to slow tempo AVB possession football.

I think Ajax played more fast, direct and cohesive than ours when attack, very impressive. Many of goals in this video could be easily put in the world class finish and show the real team work football.

Goal no.8 against Celtic - absolutely insane team work!! that's the Ideal football.
Goal vs Dinamo Zagreb and Barcelona almost look like the same set up, very fast attack from side, one touch football.

Check that Alderweireld strike vs Ac Milan -what a goal!!!
Viktor Fischer Chip in - what a class!!

I just want only one of those wonderful played happened in our team.

If we appoint Mr.de Boer for our next manager I wish us give him time, no one born with premier league experience just give him a season sure he will !! ( for those who keep saying he lacks PL exp.) everyone have a first step and i think he can adapt to PL faster with Eriksen and Vertonghen in team.

Build a club with strong culture and hope he could be our new Fergie or Wenger in a long long run then build a statue for him such a day dream right? Lol

PS. In the first sight i thought Tim would be that guy for us - our ex player- build within our club-strong passion- but he made himself trouble with him mouth and ego such a shame :(

I just don't get why anyone wants Benitez, he played dull, predictable football at Liverpool and made a total mess of the treble winning Inter team. At Napoli he spent loads after losing their best player and finished a place down from where they did last time. He's done exactly what we've done this season except the Serie A is significantly weaker than the Premier League with both of the Milan clubs in a mess.

I think they're all gambles but at least Pochettino and De Boer have a history of playing good football.

You Tube is just a compilation of the best bits of a manager or player, am sure we could make Danny Rose or Jason Roberts look a world beating genius by putting together clips of their best career moments, i never use You Tube as a benchmark for anyone in football

I know thanks for mentioned it. Just for quick search and example of homework for who doubt FdB style of play.

I thought many of us here is fan of Ajax and watch week in week out FdB team play, will know more than me.

but for Rose i doubt the vid will only 1 mins long for him best moment in his career. :D

Ok, next time I will use Redtube instead.

Benitez has a history of winning. That's why people like him.

It has to be Frank. We need to attract the right players and I don't see Pochettino doing that, and You only have to look at Moyes inability to attract any players to UTD last summer. We also need someone with a reputation to come in and handle players like Lennon and Rose and by handle I mean by selling them or sticking them in the reserves.

If you don't like Benitez fair enough, but its nonsense to say he's a gamble. He has won things in Spain, Italy, England and in Europe.

Also, you use the weakness of Serie A as a negative against Benitez but ignore the weakness of the dutch league (which incidentally is the only league in which De Boer has managed).

Having said that, I would still take De Boer over Poch.
