Can anyone really say, if they were in the same position as Maresca, that they would turn down this opportunity? This is a job that will make him financially secure for life , even if he lasts less than a season. Bit harsh

Not one of us could say that, because we’re LCFC fans and we’re thinking emotionally about the club we love. Good luck to him, but don’t expect fans to get onside with it Yes but surely you're of the understanding that Enzo is not an LCFC fan and therefore emotion isn't a part of his thinking when it comes to his career. There will be LCFC players who have far more affiliation with the club and it's fans that will also jump ship as soon as an offer from one of the elite (money) clubs comes along.

Vindaloo FOX Posted 27 May 2024 Posted 27 May 2024 I think we have pulled their pants down again, this is a great deal. We will need every million we can get our hands on. Plenty of good free managers out there. Well done Top. 2

Go tell Farke it’s the most basic of jobs.

He already is financially secure for life (I would imagine) and the Chelsea and Man U jobs are hand grenades for the next five years minimum. Kompany has shown what waiting a year out can do for your prospects, he even got relegated! Big jobs will keep appearing for the next few years due to heightened expectations and huge instability at the big clubs. Proving himself in the pressure cooker of the PL would have done his creds a lot of good. He'll prob go the same way as Graham Potter now, in Easter we'll be reading a 7-page Phil McNulty in-depth BBC article about how short sighted this appointment was. Happy to admit if I am wrong, and no hard feelings towards the bloke, it's business. But there's now way I'd take the job if I were him. 2
volpeazzurro Posted 27 May 2024 Posted 27 May 2024 No self respecting so called 'top' manager is going to go there and tarnish their reputation, particularly when they don't seem to have any say in player purchases and other alleged interferences. For Maresca however, rather like Potter, it's arguably an offer he can't refuse. Better salary no doubt and albeit a very risky one, a chance to try and prove himself at a big club. He'd be taking an even bigger risk if he stays here perhaps under the current circumstances. If it's offered, I think he has to take it. Neither has he arguably got, or likely to get, before the start of the season, the type of players he needs to play his system. In that respect, as he seems completely wedded to his system to the point of stubbornness or simply unable to adapt to anything else, it's probably better for both party's that he leaves. Potentially a really good manager for us but perhaps not in our current circumstances.

Everybody hated him for that even to this day Enzo is litterally pushing for the chelsea job when only achieving what was expected. If he stays now it doesn't look good for the club. Certainly shouldn't get a new contract I didn’t I’d have had him back in a heartbeat.
AKCJ Posted 27 May 2024 Posted 27 May 2024 The more I think about it, the worse it gets. He'll probably want to take Hermansen with him as well. This is a proper disaster. 1

Will1981 Posted 27 May 2024 Posted 27 May 2024 Enzo has to take this job his only real chance of a big job, if he stayed with us he could be sacked by Xmas and probably never manage in the premier league again.
RYM Posted 27 May 2024 Posted 27 May 2024 I can see why he’d leave as it’s such a shit show here and I can see why he would go for his ego, bank and a much bigger club but it’s a poisoned chalice. Better for him to leave now than drain us like Brendan did. Unsure why you would join us which is a huge concern. Without that unnecessary relegation we wouldn’t be in this mess. It all comes back to those years of mismanagement at the top.
