ManUtd's next manager

[Abdul Qadir 236]

something Assara-ji said about Fergie being well past his sell by date, that is beyond doubt, I was screaming down the phone at her, "the day we sold jaap stam"

i think fabio capello should replace himbut failing him I am a fan of Ottmar Hitzfeld and Sam Allardyce.

[Nawazb]

i recon steve mclaren has a chance.

[Oxy]

Mark Hughes hopefully...then watch the club go to the dogs with the most negative football you could imageine (just look what he did to Wales!)

[Hash]

Sarfraz Nawaz

[Abdul Qadir 236]

lol hash i know u want greg chappell for pakistan not

mclaren i am not convinced about. allardyce is the best domestic candidate for me.

le guen of lyon and javier iruretagoyena would also be good choices

any1 but sven (and graham taylor!!!)

[HAFRIDI]

martin o neil

[Nawazb]

alladyce best domestic candidate lol

this is a guy who is hell bent on buying rejects and playing woeful football come on there are much better managers than him.

[Oxy]

Martin O'Neil has turned down Blackburn/ Newcastle/ Liverpool/ Chelsea/ Spurs/ Southampton/ Aston Villa/ Spurs again/ Portsmouth/ West Brom/ etc etc etc.

So tell me...what job do you think he is waiting for???

[Oxy]

[SM]

its got to be martin o' neill. mclaren no way- he's happy at boro n with his england job.

Mark Hughes or Carlos Queiroz are the teo favourites to succeed him IMO

[ImranR]

Carlos Queiroz will be given the job

[Geordie Ahmed]

Carlos Queiroz will be given the job

i hope he does aswell as he did for Real :D

[Abdul Qadir 236]

well we can say allah hafiz to manchester united as a big club then, the dark days of the 70s and 80s will resume.

insha'allah :))) :))) :))) :)))

[Abdul Qadir 236]

well wouldnt be surprised if u lot beat us this weekend.
allardyce has worked wonders on a shoestring nawaz.

[Geordie Ahmed]

Im not too confident we will win! if it was at St James then we would have had a good chance BUT we play Sporting on Thurs and then we have to fly to Cradiff! i think it will be too much for the players, manure have the luxury of not playing in europe!

[Amjid Javed]

bryan robson

[HAFRIDI]

should be martin..well im hoping

[Abdul Qadir 236]

lol AJ, how about Wenger's successor to be David "We need 2 players" O'Dreary?

he'll need 3 now Der Hammer has gone!

Geordie, actually I think we will win because Fergie goes for the big headlines to try and paper over the huge cracks in our team. I dont care about FA Cup semis or beating Arsenal at Highbury, I care about the 1-0 win away to West Brom in the middle of December! The team that picks up the most points against the bottom 6 sides usually wins the league, this used to be Chelski's big weakness and Utd used to be untouchable. Then we sold Jaap Stam.....!!

[pakistani pride]

Co Adriaanse ! great coach

[Abdul Qadir 236]

Martin Jol!!!

Kamran, coach and manager are different, just look at El Tel.

I am supporting United in a weeks time though. lol

[Geordie Ahmed]

I am supporting United in a weeks time though. lol

why? are they playing everton?

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

Johan "total football" cruyff isnt employed at the minute - great great coach and am surprised no one has asked him - koeman maybe? i would go with a continental manager

[Abdul Qadir 236]

i would go with the best and that is Fabio Capello.

[Jameel]

Allardyce. I remember him saying a while back that it is unlikely he will fulfil his ambitions at Bolton. This guy is a don. If he can do what he has done with no cash, then theres no doubt with even a little bit of cash to spend he can work wonders.

Otherwise we should definatley go for a foreigner because there aren't any other British managers worthy of the job IMO. O'neil is overated.

Capello wouldn't be a bad choice although he probably wont wanna leave juve. It wont be Hitzfeld.

I think Phil Scolari would be a great choice.

Hopefully it wont be Queiroz. He is definatley a great assistant, but I don't know if he is tough enough for this job. But if he gets a chance he might surprise me.

We need someone who can take on Mourinho and his so called "mind games". Fergie should be given one more season after this. If he fails to win the league or CL then he'll get sacked.

[Abdul Qadir 236]

nonsense to have fergie stay on. he has done enough damage.

[pakistani pride]

cruyff will never ACCEPT the job he even turned down hollands offer.

Koeman is good

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

scolari wont take it!

[Abdul Qadir 236]

wouldnt want him anyway!

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

well he is better than fergie and may actually help ur side - I LOVE TH TURMOIL AT MAN UTD - it is great - glazer first of all, secondly a declining side, thirdly limited funds, fourthly they are poor!!!! ahahahahahahahaha

[Abdul Qadir 236]

i didnt even revel in the bad times of leeds and liverpool!
utd are a joke but so i can understand u laughing.

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

and u will see plenty more of the laughter too!!

Who thinks Fergie could be sacked this summer?

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

i do - get him out - seriously cruyff is a great - although he would ship van nistelerooy out - he doesnt like the guy!!! but am sure he would buy davids and sort man utd out.

Koeman is available!!! very young coach

[Assara K]

Who thinks Fergie could be sacked this summer?

I DO!!-the ***** shud of took ronaldo off and put smith on-ronaldo dives and lets down the team in that prospective EVERY match-yet fergie always manages to put him in the 1'st team!

fergie should of gone ages ago-if it wasnt for that damn petition!

Fergie will never be sacked (http://skysports.planetfootball.com/list.asp?hlid=271334&cpid=8&CLID=&lid=2&title=Ferg ie+will+never+be+sacked&channel=Football_Home)

Director Sir Bobby Charlton has declared that Manchester United will never sack Sir Alex Ferguson.
The Red Devils may be through to an FA Cup final date with Arsenal but they suffered their second successive Premiership defeat on Wednesday, at Everton, and surely must have to settle for third place for the second season running.
A disappointing UEFA Champions League campaign was ended by Milan as United continued to fail to reach the latter stages of the competition they won in 1999.
Ferguson, for the first time in years, has faced some criticism from sections of the club's support, despite retaining the backing of the majority of fans, but Charlton says his job is completely safe.
"The only way we would ever be separated from Alex Ferguson is if he decides," Charlton told Sky Sports News.
"We have no plans.
"He is the best manager that has ever been, the most successful, certainly in England, and we have no reason to change."
The 1966 World Cup winner is in China promoting United's friendly with Beijing Hyundai on July 26.
Chief executive David Gill stirred some debate recently when admitting Ferguson was 'sackable', although he later insisted the comment was taken out of context.
"I think it's been an unusual season this year in as much as we've had Chelsea spend a lot of money," Charlton added.
"They've brought in really good players and been very successful. That's one of the reasons why we haven't maybe been successful.
"Without Chelsea, we might have been champions this year and there wouldn't be a problem."

BAD NEWS FOR MAN UNITED FANS!!

interesting

nope fergie will go.....one day!

[Jameel]

Charlton is talking out of his rear end. Fergie will be kicked out if he doesn't win the title next season.

[HAFRIDI]

agree fergie should have gone ages ago, i really want him to bow out on a high, sacking him would be termed as "sick" by me as he has done loads for the club and has upgraded them to a different level since he tookover so NO sacking would be harsh on him, i rather he resign...

please dont be mark hughes

he doin an ok job at rovers

[HAFRIDI]

hehe

Give Keane my job - Fergie


Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson wants Roy Keane to be his successor.

Ferguson insists he will be in charge for at least one more year, but believes Keane has the leadership qualities required to step into his shoes.

"I will carry on at United next season and I have a contract to do that," Ferguson told The Sun.

"But when I do move on I would like to see Roy Keane taking over.

"He is a leader on the pitch and he could be that kind of leader sitting on the Manchester United bench, too."

Ferguson also took a swipe at Chelsea boss Jose Mourinho, who he described as "merely a coach".

"It is said that Mourinho is the number one but at 63 I'm not jealous of my competitors and what they win," the Scot added.

"I have been a manager for a long, long time and won many trophies. Anyway, my job is completely different and carries a heavier load than Mourinho's.

"Mourinho has a completely different culture at Chelsea than I do in charge at Manchester United. I'm a manager, not merely a coach.

"I make decisions about signings. I have the responsibility for the first team - plus the reserves and the United academy."

[HAFRIDI]

does keane have any experience? like coaching levels etc or whatever u call them

[Jameel]

I think he's studying for some coaching badges but I'm not sure.

If Keane became manager, Carlos Quieroz should be there to help him

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

keane as a manager - LOL, misplaced loyalty can cost sides dearly - best to go with a tried and tested man

[ImranR]

Keane is gonna beat all the players up if he is manager

[Assara K]

Keane WAS an incredible Man U player..but to be manager for them, is not a wise choice imo!

[Waqar's inswinging yorker]

i agree - he doesnt seem like an intellectual to me. He has all the spirit and drive in the world - i saluted him when he walked out on ireland at wc for players unprofessionalism - he may be found wanting with tactics but that can be learnt
