Dynamo_Melb_Warrior Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 The longer this has gone on the more I think it will be Aloisi, don't have a specific reason, just a feeling. Andy Maher from Fox Sports FC fame, is a Melbourne Heart fan and he has said he believes it is Aloisi. Interesting it would be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hendo Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 Lothar ffs. If Lothar is still too busy loving himself, then Aloisi on peanuts performance based, win the league, becomes Australian Rinus Michels. Ante to fuck off back home.

MTP Posted April 25, 2012 Report Share Posted April 25, 2012 love how people are writing off JA&AM coaching abilities already. everyone said ange wouldnt do a thing in brisbane once he threw out the "deadwood" and replaced it with youth and said "judge me in 12 months" .. nek minnit. back to back chamiponships. everything and everyone has to start somewhere in every industry whether it be football or making your way up the ranks at the local shop. who's to say we dont have the best manager australia has seen with these two (unlikely i know, but not impossible) gotta give these things time, if in 7 months and we've gone through the first two months of the season 0-8, then we have a problem. but what if JA/AM guide us to be 8-0, then all these doubts/questions wont be asked anymore. the annoucement will come, just relax people. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CALZALOL Posted April 26, 2012 Report Share Posted April 26, 2012 **SM IF YOU'RE READING THIS PAY TONS OF ATTENTION** I personally think Millic should be Assistant for 1 more season (just so he can build up his confidence and knowledge a bit more) and we should sign either; Papas or Walter Smith.

Libero Posted April 27, 2012 Report Share Posted April 27, 2012 the club won't sign a british manager unless their name starts with 'Sir' and ends in 'Alex' right? hahahahah, but would prefer if we stuck to fast, counter attacking, possession based play. Ange got a double page spread in the Herald Sun today, and i think that Aloisi would get the same publicity. however, Milicic would be a better all round manager, and IMO we would be more likely to get results.

LR9 Posted April 28, 2012 Report Share Posted April 28, 2012 Rebuilding? I don't think we are at that stage... Article from the age, giving JVS today. The praise on John Didulica is very much deserved, Mastermind! Van 't Schip leaves legacy of youth MICHAEL LYNCH April 28, 2012 FEW sports coaches take their farewell of a club they have played a major role in establishing by standing in the spotlight of a packed auditorium and reading a poem by Nelson Mandela, as John van 't Schip, the former coach of Melbourne Heart, did on Thursday night. Van 't Schip bid adieu to his players and colleagues before heading off to Mexico to take charge of Guadalajara-based club Chivas later this year. But van 't Schip is a little different. The 48-year-old ex-Dutch international has the laidback take on things that many people of similar age from the Netherlands do, an alternative viewpoint and a quietness that can seem like diffidence. Van 't Schip's calmness should not be taken for indifference. No one who was not committed to the project would have invested the time and effort he did to get Heart going in these, its most important formative years. It wasn't always plain sailing, of course. There have been behind-the-scenes fallings out with some senior players, the usual club arguments and bust-ups, especially when players are not selected. That is to be expected and criticism from within of a coach is hardly a new phenomenon. Sometimes it is warranted, sometimes not. Van 't Schip's legacy on the club will not be known for a while yet. In season one, Heart was competitive although it fell short of the finals at its first try. In season two it showed improvement, reached the dizzying heights of second on the table for a short while and, although fading, made the play-offs - although it saved perhaps its worst display of the season for that finals match in Perth at the end of March. Still, van 't Schip's results are enough to have earned him an on-field pass mark. His greatest achievement is, perhaps, having been able to put together a competitive squad at such short notice. The coach knew little of the Australian game when he arrived here to work with then-assistant Jesper Olsen (a former Ajax teammate), recently retired player assistant Ante Milicic and savvy football operations manager John Didulica, whose in-depth knowledge of the A-League and the local game more than compensated for van 't Schip's ignorance of the Australian scene. Clearly Didulica played a major role in recruiting players for the coach that year, but van 't Schip bought into the culture that Heart was trying to establish. Whether the decision to load up with experienced heads like John Aloisi, Gerald Sibon and Josip Skoko - all terrific players but in the twilight of their careers - cost them something in mobility and movement in that first year, van 't Schip and his colleagues argue that the presence of such solid experienced professionals was vital in creating the right sort of culture for the young players the club was hoping to build its future on. Certainly the connections remain even though Aloisi and Skoko retired at the end of that first season. The former spent last season as youth team coach and is now a candidate to replace van 't Schip, while the latter came out of retirement to lead a youth team squad on a trip to Hawaii for an international tournament. Van 't Schip's youthful good looks, thoughtful presence and typically Dutch willingness to debate all issues of the game made him a potentially terrific public relations weapon, especially for a club looking to establish an identity. He was always willing and helpful with the soccer press, but perhaps more use could have been made of him in the general media, although it must be admitted it's not always easy to get traction in that sphere, especially for Melbourne's second club. His deepest mark will surely be the young players he brought through and gave a chance. Curtis Good (now trialling with Premier League club Newcastle), Brendan Hamill, Aziz Behich, Craig Goodwin, Mate Dugandzic and Eli Babalj, in particular, have all risen to prominence under van 't Schip. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LR9 Posted May 2, 2012 Report Share Posted May 2, 2012 I have just been told that the reason the decision is taking so long is due to the fact some board members have not warmed to the idea of promoting within (due to what others have done around us), and there are some behind the scene negotiations with a couple of bigger and experienced names. Not sure how strong the source is... but this could be very interesting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
