sne Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Murat Yakin or Rudi Garcia. Both are tactically good and flexible, have a clear way of how their team should play. But would need a lot of money to be tempted to come here... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bannedfromHandV Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 I hope we don't (have to) sack RDM, but if we do I'd be tempted to look at that Wagner/Vagner bloke from Huddersfield. Got them playing well and comes from the Klopp mould 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That only potentially becomes an issue if we were struggling and whatever manager Xia appoints you can't start off on the basis what will the reaction be if we struggle. Given the squad we have I believe Bruce could get enough out of them to get us promoted. He has four promotions out of this division on his CV which is impressive. Beyond that I doubt he would be the man to take us where Xia wants to ultimately take us but we need to take that first big step back into the top flight first and then worry about that.

To be honest, a fair few were saying it about 6 games ago. As nobody has really provided a really credible, exciting alternative, plus the possible fallout of the Telegraph investigation with certain other managers, and my general opinion that the best we could aim for before the season is a late push for the play offs, I think holding fire is the best thing at the mo. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

skarroki Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 (edited) After this investigation is over, Stoke will have sacked Hughes, say by start of November. If we're miles off where we should be by then, I'd be okay with us sacking Di Matteo and going for Hughes before someone else does. Edit: however, lots of ifs and buts before it comes to that and i expect it won't Edited September 28, 2016 by skarroki Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screwdriver Posted September 28, 2016 Share Posted September 28, 2016 Rowett is still too much of a gamble. Pulis, Allardyce or Bruce should be the short list of 3. They would all get us up this season. I'd rather win ugly with Pulis than lose or draw playing "the right way" having dick head centre halves think they're franz beckenbaur pissing about with the ball on the edge of our own box. The phucktard blunders from the likes of gormless gollini and not so rock on tommy would be a thing of the past knowing a naked tony pulis would be waiting to go toe to toe (or tip to tip) in the showers at full time (anyone rememeber the James Beattie rumours?)

JamieZ Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 I honestly think Bob Bradley would be a good appointment, but if the papers are to be believed, Swansea are already sounding him out as a potential replacement for Guidolin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Michael118 Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 If Guidolin is being replaced he is another I would consider. There really are some very good possible options for us right now. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Villarocker Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 Trouble with Allardyce is that he will not be scrutinised to the max and maybe part of him being so good in the past has been down to the dodgy dealings he MAY HAVE done. I mean, remember the players he got in at Bolton? The likes of Okocha, Helguera etc. Just saying. Having said all of the above, maybe a dodgy manager is exactly what we need. If we can't beat them we might as well join them? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Villarocker Posted September 29, 2016 Share Posted September 29, 2016 In addition to my previous post, did anyone see Soccer Special on Sky last night, around half time? The guys were talking about how England should go in for their next manager. Niall Quinn said they need someone with a clean image and be basically flawless. The rest of the panel - Allan McInally, Phil Thompson and Charlie Nicholas all just cracked up laughing in a way that suggested there's no such person existing in football today. I know an ex player's dad and worked with him for years. He told me a story about how his son's former manager used to make money that is probably common in the game. Made me question (realise?) why manager's rip up players' transfer requests! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
