Tend to agree. Safe pair of hands maybe which given our upheavals is no bad thing and perhaps a season where not much happens would be a blessed relief. But nothing about him makes me excited.
The same was said about Nuno prior to him joining and look at the season we had under him. People moaned about Mourinho’s style, but the pragmatic Portuguese style of football does win things. I’d be very happy with Silva
It's sort of reminiscent of the logic of picking Dyche previously. He's never managed a big team but always overachieved will smaller teams, never managed a team with a decent budget. Has he managed in Europa before? I happen to know that Vitor has taken a team to a Europa semi final at least once!
Fwiw, would be fine with Silva, he's highly rated and would be considered a coup. Right now the squad seem pretty happy with Vitor though. I guess its a bit of a win win really.
