A Dutch translator who perhaps doesn't understand the subtleties of football would be no substitute for Overmars. Look obviously managers have come in before with poor English and done well, Poch being a good example above, but I can't think of any who've had to come into such an already chaotic situation. And obviously most managers, apart from Bielsa apparently, look to improve their English as soon as possible for obvious reasons in terms of wanting to be able to get their ideas across personally.

wykikitoon 16539 Posted October 25, 2021 Share Posted October 25, 2021 Favre now fave according to the Twitter. ALSO according to Twitter Fonseca the man I think we will have our man signed in the next international break Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Polarboy 2124 Posted October 25, 2021 Author Share Posted October 25, 2021 There's been an article this evening in Bild the German paper, which is usually pretty accurate, that Farve has moved ahead of Fonseca as favourite, or at the very least is even with him in the minds of the people making the decisions. Personally Farve's greater experience, given the position we're in, puts me more at ease than if Fonseca was to get the job. I think I'm correct in saying that Farve actually has experience in coming into a club very near the bottom of the league, I think it was Hertha Berlin, at an even later stage than this in the season, keeping them up comfortably, and stabilising them.
