we just fired the guy and paid him millions to go away, we must move forward not back through misty sentimental eyes.

When he hired Theo Espein, no one had heard of him and he was even younger than the players. But he was a very smart individual. This is probably the direction the new owber will go if the deal is confirmed.

2 names spring to my mind - Joachim Low and Bert van Marjwik (sp).

this. but since Loew is out of the reckoning....Bert is the only one who suits the "Henry" type of manager.

Hes a superb coach and plays free flowing attacking football but I think for him to come in now with us in such bad shape and his lack of English would be a mistake. He was my choice in preseason as I think with a couple of months to prepare his team and taking in some English lessons he could have done a good job, certainly better than the total garbage we've been watching under Hodgson.

he was fired , that mutual consent stuff is just to save face. Why did he leave then? we finished 7th and the owners decided that wasn't good enough and wanted him gone. They even paid him to go away.

There are several interesting names going around. DiMatteo is a prospect but unproven, Sven would come here, Leow would be great too.

Lets move forward before some want Houllier or Evans (who always finished in the top 4) back.

He wasnt fired - and he didnt leave because we finished 7th - if that was the case he would of left as soon as the season finished . He was actually planning for the upcoming season - sorting out deals for Shevly and Wilson - sorting out the pre season friendlies etc until he found out the planned budget and thats when things went south .

Have we gone forwards since he left ?

Well IMO - because it hasnt actually been said from either party - it think its because he realised the owners were not going to invest any money into transfers unless players were sold and i believe he couldnt work with the owners anymore .

If he went because we finished 7th then why didnt he go as soon as season finished .
