Think he means we have very little chance of getting them.
Hmm don't read it that way, but hey, willing to wait and see.

Agree we won't get him, just won the Bundesliga with Dortmund and is unlikely to want to leave already.

What you got against Klopp? Just curious...

Sorry, should have put him in the too risky category. Think he has done a great job at Dortmund - but don't think he would be a better manager than Harry for us at the current moment.

So just how is he 'too risky' while Blanc is on your short-list? However successful Blanc was at Bordeaux, they are the only club he's managed.

You were right. Klopp is too risky. Sorry, Hybrid. Can't agree with you. At all. In any way. Ever.

I'm stunned tbh.

Yeah but what Blanc did at Bordeaux was more than akin to what Klopp has done, and on top of that Blanc has turned around the national team from a disaster into a lot of pundits pick to go very far in this tournament. SO therefore he has taken an upper mid-table French side to the title with little investment, showing he is a good coach. And he has managed to control the egos of the French national team showing he is a good man manager.

Blanc comes with little risk IMO, then again its just an opinion like anything else.

I did also mean we haven't got a chance as is his standing at Dortmund at the moment. Done a great job, just don't think he is better for us than Harry at this moment in time. Struggled in Europe - indicates to me he knows the German league very well really, dunno if he could bring that to the PL straight away. Also he has the benefit of an incredible scouting team and technical director (Zorc)

My source is a bloke called Common Sense.

Seriously all of you need to chill. How many times has an ITK said a certain players transfer will be completed by a certain date and how many of those predictions have proved to be accurate.....

Look I posted earlier on in this thread. Harry will not be removed from his post.

I could write an eases at here of all the reasons why he should be sacked but it's not worth the time.

Harry now he didn't get a cushty England promotion has decided he would like some security and a bumper 3 year contract. Levy likes the idea of a year rolling deal.

There is no sacking on the cards or removals. If he goes it will be because he will not accept a 1 year rolling deal and will resign.


For me and now IMO Harry should go and Its time for us to look to the future. Step forward mr Martinez.

I share the same feelings exactly, but how likely is it that Harry will just leave on the basis that he wont accept the above? That's the question for me and I suppose the answer lies in what other options he might have.

I can't see him walking away from a pay off with no other job to go to.....because that wouldn't make sense given that he seems so determined to get an extension to his contract, he obviously wants to keep on working.

Then again the comments he made recently would make him look a little foolish if he stayed under Levy's proposal even if a one year rolling deal isn't quite the same thing.

Especially when the ITK in question is putting bollocks on the line over his info he's already lost 12 times over doing the same in the past

If it happens is happens but without wanting to bash "ITK" I won't be holding my breath

I'm not that bothered about the recent claims that Harry is a goner this weekend, far from it actually.

But what we do know is that there is uncertainty at the moment and the longer it drags on the more detrimental it could be to our upcoming season and beyond.

He speaks perfect English.

He does and is by far my first choice for manager. A bit of Mourinho except with more attractive football and more likeable. He won't leave Dortmund though, yet. Maybe after his 3rd Bundesliga win in a row? We should be laying the groundwork.
