Silva is now free from Hull, and I guess its probably a choice between Palace and Watford? Palace probably have the better squad and I think Palace would love a manager to stick around for 3 seasons or so to help them consolidate in the PL? Silva made a big impact at Hull in a short period of time, and it would be great if he could do the same at Palace. He might have a few european players up his sleeve in the transfer season, and know enough about the PL to make good decisions as to what players Palace should let go, sign up, renew contracts etc. Could be a good fit. Think he's already had talks with Porto who are in the champions league so sadly not just between us and Watford - that said I'm not totally sold on him anyway

For all you in favour of silva. Question: do you think Zaha or Cabaye will see this as a step forward/ sideways or backward? They don't do the hiring and firing. Do you really think players are concerned about anything else, but themselves.

Was just about to say that he hasn't experienced the Premier league etc but forgot that he'd managed Watford to 13th (Wikipedia helped me out) in a season that they favourites to be relegated so I guess he has some experience of where we expect to be, albeit not favourites to be relegated but between 8th and 14th is realistic. He got watford promoted and then left , it was Flores who managed them last season.

It was Flores who got up to 13th in the PL not Jokanovic.Jokanovic got Watford promoted but never managed them in the PL.Watford were 3rd after 11 games when Jokanovic joined them.Jokanovic signed Ben Watson for Watford, also Guedioura on 'Loan' from us.

Olympiacos P48 W38 D3 L7 Awesome record, and to be fair 23 points for a s*** Hull team out of 19 matches wasn't bad either. Can anyone confirm if he was at Olympiacos the same time as Milio? Looking at those stats I hope we get him. I don't know if he is the right guy, but his record is good. His results at Hull are worth comparing against the fact they had 13 points in 19 games before he arrived. 23 points in 19 games with a dreadful team who everyone had picked for 20th. At Estoril he got a small provincial second division club promoted to the Portuguese top division, then achieved two high placed finishes along with Europa League football. As for Jokanovic, he too has a good record.
If you come to a fork in the road, take it. |
