pete 2,499 Posted November 9, 2017 Author Share Posted November 9, 2017 (edited) I've no idea why Palace appointed him though, it didn't make sense whatsoever given the position they were in with the players they have. FdB could have been a great appointment for us a few years ago, could have been an ideal project for him to get us up through the divisions with a young group of players playing the way he wanted. I still think it will be McInnes - he's the safe option in many ways and I think that's what will swing it for the Board. The one thing that I am not so sure about McInnes is then Why is it taking so long? If they only are interested in McInnes it would have been rounded off at least a week ago.

ascender 352 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 The one thing that I am not so sure about McInnes is then Why is it taking so long? If they only are interested in McInnes it would have been rounded off at least a week ago. I guess McInnes might have been the first and obvious choice amongst some of the Board when Pedro left, but if they got lots of CVs, they'd need to do the due diligence of at least going through them as well as consulting with Allen and maybe some external people too? And that's before you get to arranging interviews and negotiating with clubs, agents etc. That's just my guess. But I literally know nothing. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
lenny3k 660 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 One of the things that I think would go in DfB favour is that, at Ajax he was in charge of a team that was expected to control the games with the lion share of possession and basically win most games.... With Palace and the Inter Milan of recent years that was never going to be the way the games went. With Rangers, it would be similar to Ajax and could potentially suit his system / tactics etc. Thats another reason I don't see the point in looking at managers like Pardew and McLaren (if we ever were)..... They've never really been managers of clubs that are expected to control the match for 90 minutes every game. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gisabeer 409 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 I don't want mcinness. he has no pulling power in the transfer market. we need a bigger name. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted November 9, 2017 Share Posted November 9, 2017 We need a stedy eddie for now while we grow. We may need a bilic or de boer or better once we are closer to celtc to make the final leap in a few years but we arent there yet. Dutch managers in the uk fair poorly as well. I think there is a cultural difficulty. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
chilledbear 16 Posted November 10, 2017 Share Posted November 10, 2017 Still think it will be McInnes, might be waiting till Aberdeen have someone ready to replace him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
