I really feel awkward by most of people here in this forum prefer the term "coach". . .I grew up in a culture where we call the man in-charge "manager". Here in UK or Europe the general usage of "manager" in Club and International competitions is prevalent. . .And I believe whoever to be selected by PFF prefers to be called "manager" rather than "coach". . . because "coach" here is like just an assistant to manager. It's like coach Jimmy Lumsden who is an assistant to manager David Moyes of Manchester United. . . Manager is the typical term used in Europe because they follow the English way of naming personnel in football, but here in the US and in the Philippines where they adopted nomenclature used in most sports including basketball, volleyball, etc., they prefer using the term coach for the individual handling the players while the manager is the term they use for the person making the decision of hiring the personnel including the coaches, players, fitness personnel, doctors, etc. Be glad they don't call the game soccer over in the Philippines. Otherwise you would be even more confused. When i was still playing during my rifa days we know it as soccer And historically soccer is an english word...i always use such excuse when the conversation ends like "....you mean football popularly played in europe and south america..."

I also had him on my shortlist, in fact he was at the top of my list, when i looked for clue who were the former captain of Barcelona that is unemployed. Even if he had no int'l XP, I have a confidence he can teach our Pinoy players how to pass tiki-taka style if that his style. Not until Coach Avramovic wants to coach the Azkals, he is my #1 candidate.

Uh... If we can Bakero, he's the obvious frontrunner from all the other name people atm. This Barcelona-Philippines connection is too hard not to take advantage of.....

If I was part of PFF. I would consider Pele as a candidate. We all saw him as a great player,I like to see him as a manager. Since he don't have a managerial experience. I think he can consider an "entry-level" managerial pay.

An earlier post from ABS-CBN Sports:
RT @abscbnsports: EXCLUSIVE: New Azkals coach revealed on @thescoreph with @tjmanotoc tonight 9:30 p.m. on ABS-CBN @sportsandaction Ch 23 #PLAYHARD
Fans watched the show but they didn't named it.
One fan said "Sabi nila. German sya"
Don't know if true since I didn't watched also.

If indeed he is the chosen one, I'm hoping he will deliver better than his predecessor. . .

Thomas Dooley?! A Coach Weiss in the making? Hope not. If this is true, I wish him all the best.

If I had to guess, Coach Dooley would at least be better than Coach Weiss in handling the media. After all he was a public figure for most of his career and you would expect that with him being Captain of the USMNT during the 1998 World Cup, he had his fair share of media encounters.
