Is there any proof that Bilic

Thu Nov 21, 2024 7:05 pm

Went to meet Tan?

We’ve heard countless different stories about different managers interviewing but there was no actual proof or even news stories stating that

Riza today didn’t seem fazed in the slightest and seems as though he’s still expecting the job.

I believe that someone told someone who told someone else that "x" happened. What i always fall back to, is why?

These things are secret, we are good (nowadays) at keeping secrets. There are always championships clubs looking for managers and by the looks of it a few lower premier league (West Ham) managers will be there within two ot three weeks. For me, he is just being shown he is available.

Is there even an interview process? Isn't it just Tans gut feeling?

I doubt they took a selfie together if he did go, that would have been proof.

If you are Bilic with his reputation, I doubt you do the PowerPoint presentation.

I guess the first informal chat was through intermediaries.

The second is a look at the ground and training facilities, then an explanation of what you still want to achieve and how you'd go about it

The third is with Tan & Dalman talking terms and budget expectations

We then offer and he either accepts our terms or rejects.

He is not with us

I’m not asking for a selfie, but normally there would be some journalists who have reported on it, even if not true.

But there is nothing at all

True, but remember that Bulut wasn't even mentioned by the media (or on here and social media to be fair) until about an hour before he was announced.

That’s a fair point.

Bilic is a lot more high profile than Bulut however, so I’d have expected something to have been reported.
