Óscar García Junyent - Club CONFIRM appointment as Head Coach (8.10pm, 26 June)

[Ⓩ-Ⓐ-Ⓜ-Ⓞ-Ⓡ-Ⓐ]

It's funny, I can't help but feel "anyone-BUT-English" in terms of next manager. We need someone who will carry on Poyet's style and tweak it.

I agree, in addition, the English player market it inflated to the point of being ridiculous. There is so much better value elsewhere in Europe that having an oversees manager that knows some of the foreign leagues is for me the way forward at the moment.

As far as I'm concerned, a coach that wears jeans on the touchline is just made for us!

I agree entirely with you and @Mellotron

This article seems to suggest that we had some interest in Oscar before he left Barca to Join Maccabi Tel Aviv.

Was a coach at Barca under Cruyff, then went to Maccabi Tel Aviv, immediately took them to their first league title in a decade then left for personal reasons

Bruno Alemany appears to be the director of a Spanish football show/website (so may have some sources rather than completely unfounded speculation)

You can imagine after all these maybe's being linked that Bloom will pull out something like this for us. Sounds good to me!!

Unlike the majority of names I've seen mentioned there's something about this chap that just feels right.

@brunoalemany: @amexbha I think we will know more in 48 hours. Oscar is not the only Brighton chance and Brighton not the only Oscar Garcia way...

Is he Jewish? It might give him an advantage in the interview process.
