Said this before and got shot down. I would 100% be in favour of us appointing Benitez (although I don't think there is any chance of that!) But I said before if people would expect Benitez to come in and start playing amazing football, especially when/if we go up, then they'll be disappointed.

Not bothered about the football just a team that's successful not winning 5-6 games then imploding the next 6 and repeat. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You mention Moyes (ex man utd manager) being touted as a possibility but dismiss Rodgers because he has been linked to man utd?! Besides everyone seems to be getting linked with man utd. I am pretty confident Rodgers will not be top of their manager shortlist so there is definitely a chance he could come to us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mav_86 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 With compensation being an issue, if Bruce is to leave- I'd definitely have a look at Alan Pardew. Experienced, achieved promotion, plays decent attacking football and is currently looking for work. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mav_86 Posted October 3, 2018 Share Posted October 3, 2018 No? Granted his time at the Baggies wasn't successful to say the least but he's an attacking manager. There's pros and cons to all possible replacements. Sure we could all come up with a list of 5 names- but the Brendan Rogers, Benitez's aren't going to come Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PieFacE Posted October 3, 2018 VT Supporter Share Posted October 3, 2018 (edited) Alan Pardew? No thanks. I'd rather us finally give Curbishley the job I hope to god whoever it is has no previous ties to SHA. Not because I care that they do, but i'm sick of the media thinking we care about it.

Why cant we never get these appointments right ffs Good question! Do you go with experienced, tried and tested or someone a bit left field but might be a gem? I think a word with JT might be the best port of call- knows most of the players, comes in with immediate respect, knows the goal, knows the club, be interesting to see how he goes about implementing his own team with what he has learnt over the years.

I'm not bothered either. But there are plenty of people on here who very much are bothered by it. In fact some who value it over results. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It really isn't going to help the new manager having part of our fan base expecting a world class manager turn up. I'm hearing some mental names. Wenger? I mean, seriously? It was Zidane and Fonseca earlier too. Think Dean Smith and work out from there. Maybe Henry will get his first managers gig but we really need to tone these names down.
