If anyone isn't aware Macro Silva is best mates with Jorge Mendes so to think he won't have contacts is absurd!

(Sorry if the spelling is wrong)

Just to make clear about some arguments presented by some let me remind you about something I know very near.
Once upon a time there was a manager training a team call U. Leiria that until then didn't had won nothing (I don't even know if you ever heard about such team?).
Well that manager went to a much bigger club with lots of trophys and international background. The result in 2 years was that he won the UEFA League and the Champions League, the team in question was F.C. Porto...
Just for the record the manager that was nothing at that time and it hasn't no relevant curriculum was...
José Mourinho!!! Intriguing...

Silva has an excellent track record when you look at the resources he had to work with at the clubs he managed.

Managing Estoril in Portugal, he took them to new heights they had never seen before. Won the second division, got them qualified for Europa league for 2 seasons straight after promotion.

Went on to manage Sporting, where he won them the cup, finished 3rd, but was fired at season end for not wearing the clubs official suit at a game !

At Olympiacos he had an 80% win rate, including a memorable 3-2 win at Arsenal.

Like people have said before, he had the worst team in the league to work with, and came close to saving them. This guy would be fantastic to have here.

I have been speaking to a couple of Palace supporters tonight and they were BOTH totally against Silva joining, in fact they asked me to pass their feelings on to Parish !

One of them didn't have an alternative in mind, the other one was pro-Hodgson.

You are keeping bad company then. So just are you going to pass this information to SP. I am beginning to think you live in cloud cuckoo land.

Mate you're spot on!
I don't want to be right I deeply want success for the Palace and joy to all of us!

Absolutely NOT.

I regret posting what they asked me to do.
Must refrain from posting after imbibing intoxicating fluids !

I am not solely judging him on the Hull experience because I have said there were "Extenuating circumstances".

What I am saying is that he arrived at Hull as a relative 'Unknown' as far as supporters in this country are concerned on the back of a record with major clubs in lesser leagues, yet he suffers a relegation and all of a sudden he is the "Flavour of the month" and many might conclude the "Real deal". !

Just like Luka then! I suppose you think he is not up to it as he has mainly played in Belgium and Greece. You seem to be taking great pleasure in dismissing any sensible suggestions.

Wouldn't be that bad a choice.

 


Why would anyone chose to be a Seagull? The Eagle is a far superior creature.

The Seagull lives under it's damp pier meekly looking out, blinded by the sheer quality of the Eagle's palace.

Just found this really good article which describes his coaching approach. Rather to my surprise, he seems a very good fit for Palace. He seems to emphasise a defense first approach, with meticulous attention to defensive formation, and favours a counter attacking style going forward.

Yes, Silva would be a very "Underwhelming" appointment.

Presumably then, if this goes ahead you will no longer grace this board with your doom mongering and attention seeking drivel.

Good point but neverthless this review needs to be context in a way like Ortega y Gasset says: "I am plus my circumstances."
What I want to enphasize is that shows what is done in the past with the resources that he had. It doesn't necessarily means what he will do in the future with different resources.

You are being very selective only highlighting part of my message.Please look at my overall message.

Don't know why you believe I am deriving "Great pleasure" etc etc. All I am doing is giving my honest opinions and I stand firm by what I have written.
