Last thing we need right now is ANOTHER manager change.

I'll stay put in the champs for another season ta - no desperate need to go up and project Oscar is exciting me. Thanks for the offer though...

Hughton? Really?

Didn't do much with Birmingham City, did nothing in his first season at Norwich other than mid-table, arguably because Lambert set that up for him and pretty much got Norwich relegated this season despite spending a good few million.

Steve Clark's a shout if Garcia were to walk. I hope he doesn't mind you.

As much I as like Oscar, I agree with this.

We need to play direct 4-4-2 English football with an English manager at the helm.

Quick forwards, Big powerful Centre Backs and a midfiled more reliable then a wood burning stove.

Disagree with the OP.

OG has been handed a far lower budget than Poyet (hence the toys out of the pram manipulating an ending by Poyet), and was dealt:
- the likes of Andrews, Greer, Calderon - good players in their day, but unfortunately on the wane in terms of pace now
- policy of selling/not being able to secure renewed loans on: Bridge, Barnes, Bridcutt
- injury prone/unlucky Buckley, Orlandi, Bruno, CMS, Hoskins, Ulloa
- tightening of wages belt, meant no chance of acquiring quality of Vicente's ilk
- glaring lack of pace in the squad in general
- a strange squad mix of youngsters and some veterans, not many (regularly fit) and quality players at the top of their game in their mid-20's

Or taking OG out of it, I don't think those managerial names could have done much better inheriting the above.

Some good points there mate, but for the life of me I can't see what style of play he's trying to achieve.
