Be honest.........

[Return of the Rev]

how many of you lot wetting yourselves about the new manager, head coach or whatever he is called had actually heard of him 6 weeks ago?

At least four on nsc are already impregnated with his children

 

[Postman Pat]

I'd never heard of Mourinho, AVB etc.. till they played English clubs in the premier league

I'd never heard of Arsene Wenger, Rafa Benitez etc.... until they came here as managers

I didn't know Slaven Bilic was managing till Croatia played against England.

I don't keep track of the likes of Poborski, Roberto Baggio, toto schillaci etc.. to see what they are up to these days.

Doesn't mean that we can't excited about the prospect of having a manager who played for Barca, and has learnt his trade as a coach in what is considered to be the template for what successful clubs need to be doing, at a time when we are building our own academy, which I really hope Oscar has an input into.

I remember him from his playing days, but what exactly is your point?
Does it matter. Who had heard of Arsene Wenger before he came to Arsenal and look what he did to revolutionise Them!

I don't have a clue what the name is of the man who runs the whole of Barcelona's youth academy.

Does that mean I can't be excited if we recruited him?
