Remember what happened with Liverpool folks and how many times the favourite changed - don't think it's as cut and dried that AVB is the man for us just yet.

TBF AVB going to us is a lot more likely and simple than Martinez to Liverpool. AVB has no other commitments for one.

What if AVB has been in place for months and has been scouting players to bring in since he left Chelsea, Vertonghen could have been one of those players.

Blanc 33/1 i'm tempted to plonk 25 on it unless i get 10 people agree with me that it would be stupid

I like those odds.... The big ground swell for AVB is hard to ignore but my preference would be Blanc. I'd have Deschamps and AVB as equals n the next line.

33's for a reason I guess.... pocket change would be my max bet.

Bets can be very deceptive. Also Redknapp was 1/30 on for the England job for quite some time.

Oh God. We're getting Hodgson aren't we?

Fucking hell Scutch, your head must be all over the place.

So far today you seem to have come up with justification for just about everyone we've been linked with, only to dismiss it a page or two later :D

Chelsea would have been a huge learning curve for him, not just through managing the ego's of the players and owner, but also the media and public perception of him.

What doesn't kill you, makes you stronger and whether it is with us or another team, he will prove his worth again as one of the top managerial prospects in world football.

Agree. Said it when he got the chop...eventually he will rebuild and go on to be a world class manager.

What is evident is that we have changed manager at a good time. With Villas-Boas, Blanc, Deschamps, Moyes, Capello, all realistic possibilities...we have some really good options on the table.

Not very good at this match fixing lark are you?

Your supposed to put a bit more on than just £40

I did - bet on several fixed games, lol

If Vilas-Boas signs tonight ... I guess the site maintenance will be getting delayed again, lol

I'm not convinced with the AVB info, entirely plausible that insiders could 'promote' betting i.e. That false pic, maybe even the betting companies... Remember earlier today his reps stated he was NOT in the running for the job ????

everyone thinks JJ is the best itk around really so if he says it will be all quiet for a while i think that rules out AVB in my eyes. he is out of job and can join immediately or wud have been appointed already if we go by levys previous sacking of managers and replacing them instantly!!

it has to be blanc!

I might be mad but I've got a lot of faith in Levy. I'm wiling to accept AVB with an open mind...and hopefully he has learnt a lot from his time at Chelsea.

Turns out AVB was in Manchester today. Buying his custom-made car. Flew back to Algarve, via London. No talks with Spurs.

Fair enough.

So where would you put your money now?
I honestly don't know mate... Still not sure about AVB. If he gets the job I'll be £600 up but I only bet on him and Benitez because they're both out of management, nothing to do with itk etc.
