I wouldn't have thought that Favre knew enough about our squad to know who needed replacing or upgrading and therefore how much would be needed

It was definately quoted as 50m the next manager would get.

Sell zaha for 30m and give him 80m to spend.

spend 20m of that on a zaha replacement then use the other 60m for other players needed.

well, that's what i would do.

Patrik Vierra is as low as 5/2 fav now, biggest price 4s, Hills go 3s and 5/2 fav Favre - and Hills have been the best predictors so far. As historian Theodore K Rabb once argued ... 'a crisis is the penultimate stage in the resolution of a problem'. Hopefully by Friday week we'll get someone in who isn't cr*p.

link?

i cant seem to find it on oddschecker anymore.

Before anyone starts, if it is vieira then lets give him a chance.

If you look at his links in football :

france
ogc nice
ligue 1
new york city fc
manchester city
MLS
Serie A
Juventus
Inter Milan
Arsenal

Lucien Farve

Switzerland
Dortmund
Bundesliga
OGC Nice
Ligue 1
Mönchengladbach
Hertha BSC
FC Zürich
Super League


Now, if we could get farve and have Vieira as his assistant.

All those links would be useful. Who wouldn't want some Switzerland players at the moment for example.

If you can replace Zaha for £20m you should be in charge!

Wouldn’t be hard based on this season’s form. We got Eze for less!

Strictly speaking, you need the gerund here. If you don't mind my saying so.

How long will it take for Dazza to claim he knew all along?

Of that £30m we'll need to pay Man Utd £7.5m (it is "5%?), sorry to split hairs!

Agreed, tho, 'IF' its true, is this a box-ticking exercise by SP? I mean, he IS a PR man, CPFC only EPL club to currently have a foreign black manager?

I think Man U share of any sell on fee will be 20%?

Skybet have a market for the next Wrexham manager but not Palace manager! Betfair exchange seems to point to Viera but this is Palace so anything can happen

The club appears to be pretty good at keeping this stuff and transfers in house. I occasionally take a peak at the BBS and they are as much in the dark as we are. The usual claims of ITK but these only appear when the rumours are in the media.

I guess anyone who thinks they are ITK may not be as recent events have shown.

You know what? If it is just a box-ticking exercise by Parish (which I seriously doubt) then it's one I applaud. Vieira's contemporaries, Shearer, Lampard, Gerrard, Neville, Keane, etc. (guess what?, all of them white) all walked into top-level jobs with no qualifications whatsoever and no one complained that I can recall. Each was far less qualified than Vieira is now.

Vieira, just as good a player as any of them, has actually paid his management dues so why are people questioning his suitability for our job? It only gives fuel to those who raise the obvious question of why so few minorities get managers'jobs. Perhaps now we know.
