Certainly has an impressive European track record…although his English is reported to be minimal…not sure if that’s a stumbling block. Poch didn’t have much English when he joined us.

If we’re serious about the Europa League this season, he seems like a decent candidate. Didn’t know he didn’t speak much English.
On the AVB choice, I’ve seen a lot of people advancing the argument that he tallied more points than Pochettino during his decent season at Spurs. If we re-sign Gareth Bale, good option
Yep. We have a 5 year plan. These are our year on year targets. Hit targets earn bonus. Exceed targets earn more bonus. Miss targets earn less. Really miss targets get sacked.
I’d be happy with either Frank De Boer or Unal Emery. I voted for Emery.
They’ve both won things. The only person on our inaugural shortlist that hasn’t is David Moyes.
The language thing is a concern with Umal Emery, but his pedigree in Spain has been excellent. This wouldn’t be the first time that he has replaced Koeman - he took the hot seat in Valencia after RK’s reign ended, took that team to three Europa League quarter finals, finishing 6th and then 3rd.
Looks the business, and is a specialist in replacing players every season!
AVB for me - knows the Prem, great record with Zenit over the last few years and never really got a fair crack of the whip at Spurs or Chelski.
Emery is the obvious choice but I can’t help but feel we would be another stepping stone for him, would be good to get a coach who is actually committed to the club rather than using us to progress.
