Ryan Gosling Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 I understand Hearts have made an approach to this fella: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paulo_S?rgio_Bento_Brito I've heard from a couple of sources via a few different places, and I think he might be our man. Doing some research, I see some other people have mentioned it on Twitter. Anyway, that's what I've heard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would be happy enough with him, but he would get a shock managing us after Sporting and seeing what the SPl is like. Will believe it when I see it.

Malinga the Swinga Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Sacked for being 26 points behind Porto. if any SPL club got within 26 points of Porto, i would be surprised as they were a cracking team last year. if it is him, and he accepts, it would ge a very positive appointment. if JJ stayed as a DoF, then it would be even better, but think that is unlikely.

Malinga the Swinga Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Perhaps, and it is only a guess, the manager, Paulo Sergio, we want is sought after elsewhere, and he is only available prior to his country's new season starting. Perhaps, once 10 games had passed, another club in Portugal, or elsewhere, might sack their manager and want him to replace him, so we have struck whilst we can. Perhaps its an ambitious appointment and a manager who may, just may, know what he is about, could be arriving. Lets wait and see if he arrives before anything else is said.

loveofthegame Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 As gutted as I am by the JJ sacking, I'm cautiously optimistic about this news.

sadj Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Can you imagine the british/Glaswegian media in portugal if a manager gets sacked for 11 wins in 17. Looks like most of the jobs hes had have been because hes done well and moved up as opposed to being terminated. That worries me slightly but the appointment assuming the legends on here are correct is the most ambitious manager weve had since burley first arrived in my humble opinion.....
