Davide Ancelotti

Because the risk is so insanely different. We’re not 12th and just off it atm are we.
I sort of agree but at the same time I don’t think there’s a guaranteed alternative for success. I like each of the options for different reasons, Bielsa could be a great shorter term option but could be a disaster, Dyche could be safe but too safe and might not get us the points required to stay up all while playing unattractive football and Davide has no experience but has massive potential.

If we were to go down I’d probably prefer to have someone like Ancelotti who can stay with the club and rebuild right back to the Premier League, I also think Bielsa could do this but again he’s a headcase that could blow up at any point.

Basically I just want a long term option that actually have potential, I think Ancelotti is probably one of the first managers that we’ve been linked to since Moyes where they’re entirely unproven but at the same time have massive potential. Feels like everyone we’ve ever gone for is either a “has been” or “never was” or generally just the flavours of the month, we never go for the unknown with massive upside.
 

Just went 3rd favourite in bookies betting behind dyche and bielsa. That might just be because of lame reports. But he wasnt even in the market betting 3 hours ago.
 
No more excited / disappointed than our current mob of options. If anything he seems less entrenched in a formation / system than the others. His set piece defensive drills seem to have garnered a following at least.
 
If we had a solid squad, good structure and long-term plan in place, sure, why not, he's a very good coach by all accounts.

Right now? No way.
