    Maresca is a punt and there's no two ways about it.

    I have a feeling it'll be him.

    We enter the Scottish Cup at the 5th round, so should still be attainable you'd think.

    There are other possible punts that have s better chance of success.

    IF, and I say if, Maresca's name is even in the mix, then we'd be as well chucking it.

    They did. They had a bigger net spend than the rest of the entire league, I'm sure.

    I never said he would get it. He’s certainly not one of the favourites right now.

    I merely said 25/1 odds were worth a punt. And I wouldn’t mind him particularly over an untested rookie like Maresca.

    All this city group pish is yawn inducing garbage. Trendy BS.

    Style over substance, which unfortunately is rather popular with many fans.

    I don't think keeping the players is the issue so much chosing them and letting them call the shots and undermining the coach at every turn. Ange isn't Manger there, he is Head Coach he won't have the control and over sight he has here and ultimately will have a DoF and Levy telling him what to do. Recipe for disaster but he's made his bed.

    I'm with you.

    Knutsen would be my 1st choice but would be happy with Maresca.

    Tactically his style of play with city u23s was very similar to Ange, he's spent a year working beside pep who essentially invented the style of play Ange did with us so in terms of transition he'd be smoothest we could get.

    Would need to be as head coach tho as clearly wouldn't have experience to have such a wide reaching role as Ange did.

    Could probably say same about Knutsen

    No issues with us approaching city to talk to Maresca, we might as well gauge what he's like in comparison to other candidates.

    If he comes in, it needs to be alongside a DOF.

    Thinks it’s looking more like Maresca by every passing hour.

    Maresca is paper talk that's it.

    Rags are putting 2+2 and getting potato.

    He's a "member" of the City Group and the club have ties to the Manchester outfit.

    That's it.

    The rags are running it, and everyone on here is jumping on it, without actually thinking about the particulars.

    Hes no more qualified than that * Kennedy, and the club (Desmond) isn't gonna waste time enamouring a misnomer coach when he's got a ready made, compliant, and utterly devoted one right here.

    There's no chance of this.
