manveer 39 Posted January 18, 2011 Report Share Posted January 18, 2011 Re: World Championship 10658 Match Reports and Tranfer News Manveer, who has signed a two-and-a-half-year deal, has been out of work since resigning as Arsenal boss after a 1-0 defeat byChelsea in December 2010. "I've actually enjoyed my time out and I've done a lot of re-evaluating mistakes I've made in the past," the 22-year-old told BBC Radio. "I've had four or five offers but I was starting to get really hungry and was missing the day-to-day of football." The ex-Southend and Bradford striker found managerial success with his former playing clubs, winning promotion to the Premier League with both sides. Everton Owner Told BBC, I wanted to appoint a manager with several years of experience behind them who also had a history of promotion and then staying up. "I have been lucky enough to find a manager in Sidhul who has done that twice and pertinently with two clubs that had never been in the Premier League. "It was also important to bring someone to the club who could play the way Everton expect the game to be played and who will embrace the club's role in the community." "When a new manager comes in they normally bring in their own staff," said Sidhu. "But I'm not saying anything's set in stone because it only happened Today. "I've made tentative enquiries about who I'd like to bring here, but whether I can or not I don't know." Quote Link to post Share on other sites

"When you come back from pre-season and join a team late you have to catch up," he said. "But for me it wasn't really a matter of that, it was just getting fully fit by playing games.

Dortmound made an initial offer of £14.5m offer last Night which was rejected, and Man United have knocked back the latest bid as they want £17m cash up front for the 29-year-old striker. Last night it was revealed that Sven Goran Erriksson was prepared to let promising youngster Mario Gotze join United on loan for a season to sweeten the deal, but even this hasn’t forced the English side into a deal. Dortmound boss Sven is keen to bring in the Striker as he looks to reshuffle his strikers ahead of next season, with Lucas Barrios attracting interest from italy and edging closer to the exit door as he has still to agree a contract extension.Perhaps more worryingly for Sven is the news that Japanese Striker Shinji Kagawa is attrating interest from the big clubs.That may mean Dortmound losing two strikers.

Sven is known to be an admirer of the 21 year old Mexican international and attempted to land the youngster when he first burst onto the scene.Arsenal manager Milan Kostic has admitted that the skillfull attacker will struggle to get anything more than appearances from the bench which has led many to believe Vela may on the move. The German club has a great deal of money available to use to further improve their squad and whilst the need to bring a striker the fact that the club continually has to count on goals coming from the midfield or wings is there for all to see. Arsenal may be happy to accept a reduced offer for Vela as they try to cut costs at the club and some sources have stated that a fee of around £5-8m may be enough to land the striker.
