does the "portugese expert" have a name? Or is he just a mystery man, hearing all the gossip while lurking in the shadows

I rate him. I thought the Chelsea job was a year too early, but with less expectation and the opportunity to build a side in his image, he'll eventually do well.

IF he is given some time and control, he'll do well. He'll shape the team and at the very least they'll have a bit more tactical nous then during harry's reign.
I wonder where they are getting the cash for this transfer war chest he's apparently being given? Modric/Bale gone? Think they'll spend some dough on Ade?

Quite the opposite actually. His problems with Chelsea stemmed from the fact that he tried to mould the team to play the way he likes and make changes. Terry and Lampard were having none of it so he was goner. With Spuds, unfortunately, he has more room to operate and he really is fantastic young up and coming manager and if they show patience in few years they will cause trouble to us and rest of the league.
Massive massive upgrade on 'Arry.

You do realise our arguments are quite the same actually?

You would think so but AVB seemed to be going down the Hughes path of trying to concentrate on attack first & defence second whilst at Chelsea, with similar problems (fullbacks getting caught forward at the wrong time etc). Usually managers who do that end up sacked by impatient fans/bosses unless at small clubs. Will he try it again ?
