Important Re Manager Question : Would the m

Important Re Manager Question :


Would the managers being interviewed by Wasserman be told …..that they have to talk to Tan regularly before and after a match ….and discuss teams and tactics ….and even get texts during a game ?

Would they be told about this bizarre arrangement as part of the job ?


Will any manager worth his salt accept this nonsense ?


Perhaps Tan would not accept to sign someone who will not accept to be his pet puppet .


The irony is that Tan really believes that he is very knowledgeable in football …..but I like almost everyone believe that this is ridiculous .

It is not just the question of whether a self respecting qualified manager would accept Tan being involved in most football decisions …..but perhaps more interestingly ….will Tan hire a manager who is not his puppet and who engages with him
regularly on everything football ?


Both questions are important and related .


I am not expecting that we will therefore get a really good manager …..and if we do …..he will probably not know about Tan’s idiosyncrasy.

Well if he doesnt know or wasn't told of tans involvement in team affairs he won't last long he'll walk! But on other hand if he hasn't heared of tans involvement prior to interview he must be from another planet... so if we do get a decent manager suspect he will be fully aware of
tan but its a question of what he'll do about it?

Isn’t this the reason that Lamouchi went, due to Tan ?

They didn’t see eye to eye and therefore he probably wouldn’t have stayed and therefore city didn’t offer a contract ??
