Luzon was rated enough by M.Duchatelet to be given a two year extension at Liege and he's still on the payroll. That was when Liege finished first in their league but then failed to beat any of the competition in their play-offs so they then had to try to qualify for champions league via an impossible route. They won in Greece but knocked out by Zenith St Petersburg.
He managed three of our players last season, Bulot, Ben Haim and Buyens - two of them played 38 times for him in a winning team.
Last summer M.Duchatelet sold a lot of talent from Liege for a lot of money and Luzon failed to make the new squad work. So he took a fall. Since then Liege have climbed back to the edge of their play-offs.
So Luzon rated and still on the network payroll and signed Watt. And Fraeye dropping hints.
Sounds like a Luzon Fraeye team perhaps? Ideally followed by a couple of signings so we can get a win asap.
Before we judge the decision or replacement let's see how we play in our next couple of games. I suspect it will be a decent performance... New coach bounce etc. I look forward to reading the opinions of the Charlton community after they've seen us vs Rotherham. A win in that game and normal service is resumed!

A bit surprised nothing has been announced yet actually
Me too. Peeters had been on the ropes for a while and both Peeters and Riga not working. One hopes that they are nailing transfer budget / targets but dream on!

Down side is he more often than not likes coming last.
Jose Riga baaaaaaaby!
Sadly its gonna be Luzon though. Must be a good reason why he's odds-on.
He's one of Roland's... He's one of Roland's
Oh Guy Luzon... He's one of Roland's
Christ, even recruiting a new manager is boring at this club.
Will it be Mr Guy Yesman or Mr Cedric Nobody or Mr Basil Belgique or all three is an exciting joint effort?
