Although I do not speak Catalan it is very similar to Castellano and yes, it confirms he is leaving. Who knows how they know this ... is this like that Irish statement etc. regarding O'Neill ??? ... but if they are ITK they are confirming he is leaving. Google translate.... Quique Sánchez Flores plans to change Espanyol for Stoke City in the winter market I know, the Google translate is a "literal" translation and not great English so I was just confirming that it does confirm he is leaving (if you believe they have a source for this confirmation). I understand written Catalan and spoken Catalan but cannot speak it myself as it is different to Castellano (traditional Spanish) ... Catalan is a kind of cross between Spanish, French and Italian with some Purtuguese thrown in for good measure !

Until I’ve seen a picture of him, in front of the Boothen End, holding a tactics board trying to work out what to do with Wimmer.... Smash him around the head with it?

Xabi Gracia, the best positioned
Navarrese coach Xabi Gracia likes general sports director, Òscar Perarnau, and has many numbers to be his substitute. Espanyol's current coach was evaluating this Stoke proposal for a few weeks, and his disappointment with the season's sports planning will leave Cornellà ahead of schedule. This Thursday the Spanish coach of Espanyol threw balls out when asked about his future.

We must have made a very good offer for him to leave Espanyol, not just for himself financially, but also the finances he will have at his disposal to buy players.
It’s very difficult to not excited about it and the noises coming from Balague suggest that Hughes was a dead man walking for some time.

Hold on a minute, the irony of this. You're saying i can't bring into the equation of Flores winning europe, but you can bring in hughes getting into the Uefa cup? Raf, wake up, and smell the coffee. You can't have it both ways. If you're going to match them up Mark Hughes - 3 9th place finishes and a semi final (with a well established premier league side) or Flores - A semi final and not just survival - mid table survival from a newly promoted championship team, flores wins hands down. Then if you want to argue the fact of Hughes - getting into Uefa Flores - winning the europa league Flores WINS again Regardless of which way you think i meant it, overall as 2 managers, Flores has won a trophy via the europa league and Hughes Hasn't. Its really that simple to get into your tiny mind. Jesus Christ you are thick as fucking shit. The only thing I'm arguing is that from your initial post you said staying up and getting into an FA cup semi final was better than anything Hughes had ever done. You didn't mention anything else that Flores had done as you were trying to belittle Hughes. Had you used the EUFA cup as part of your example I would have agreed with you. Also you never stipulated that you were talking just about Hughes at Stoke. So there is no irony or me moving goalposts. You are wrong I am right in this situation. I suggest you say what you mean next time and not try and fail to be a clever twat. Clearly I'm not the only one who thinks the same on here. You fucked up, move on. H Not moving the goal posts, you just interpreted what i said differently, like i said, if you weren't sure, just ask

The coach of the Spanish , Quique Sánchez Flores, plans to leave the club this winter market , is so imminent and accepted the proposal of the Stoke City in the Premier (which is the third to tail, with 20 points). The British will pay the retirement clause of the coach, which is four million euros, and Sánchez Flores will leave Espanyol after a year and a half on the bench. The rumors of the news began to run hours before Espanyol came back in the Levante field, which allowed the classification of white-and-blue to quarterfinals .
Okay guys a proper English translation rather than Google translate:
The coach of Espanyol (the Spanish !!!!), Quique Sanchez Flores (sorry don't have accents on this keyboard), is expected to leave the club during this winter transfer window, in other words, immediately, to accept the proposal of the premier league club Stoke City (who are currently third from bottom of the table with 20 points). The English club will ppay the release clause of 4m euros (I thought people had said there wasn't a release clause ?!) and Sanchez Flores will leave Espanyol after a year and a half in charge. rumours of this news came within hours of Espanyol's comeback at Levante (they overturned the 1st leg deficit in the Copa del Rey) which saw the blue and whites qualify for the quarter finals of the cup.
I must admit I dont like the subtle difference in 2 headlines in the same tweet. The tweet is titled that he WILL leave whereas the website article link says he is EXPECTED to leave.
Sorry to sew seeds of potential residual doubt ...

Plenty of flights from Barcelona to England today. Including one that’s currently in flight now, arriving at Heathrow 09:47. There’s flights to Manchester but the earliest is this afternoon at like 15:00. Unless Coatesy has sent a private jet over

If it falls at the last hurdle, just remember that MON option is still a good option.

I’m excited about this, especially the finances bit.....sounds like there’s a solid plan but.......
I fear we still have a worry that players like jack will be leaving us very soon and players like jack are very hard to come by
Shame because it seems we are going to get organised at the back finally

Can't see him being in the dugout. Too late for that. I disagree. Get straight in there and do it. Big challenge, might give some of the players a lift particularly if they see him on the touch line.

Percy's article last night said he, or otherwise, wouldn't be in the dugout at Old Trafford. Potentially in the stands, though.

Can't see him being in the dugout. Too late for that. Can’t see him wanting to start with a probable defeat either. Wouldn’t help momentum. Best start Tuesday (with a possible quick word in the dressing room at some point on Monday).

Why is it a good option? I need convincing. I am sure someone on here will soon pop along to satisfy your need. Why don't you? He's awful with big money. Plus, he's been out of club football for 5 years I think so will he have knowledge of the transfer market and who's available? He's only a motivator and has little tactical input, which we need considering we have an awful defence. He'd bring a thug into the club that would divide the dressing room. Plays horrid football. They're just a few of the reasons I don't want him.

He'll be in the stands anyway. The players will know he's watching them and that places are up for grabs. If he's appointed today, he'll have only had 2 training sessions with the team. Really no point in throwing him in there on Monday. Give him another week and he'll have a much better chance of getting that maiden win against Huddersfield.
