The major concern for me is that very few of the candidates we seem to be looking at have anything in common. We're seemingly considering old school British firefighters, completely untested internal candidates, developing young European coaches, Global superstars, and vastly experienced European journeymen. I thought the whole point of bringing in Walsh was to put a structure in place where we had a level of continuity and clear plans, but it seems like there's no cohesion at all in the recruitment process, whether for players or managers. Moshiri has an awful lot of questions to answer.
 
Great post and spot on about big joe.

However it's sentiment clouding judgement exactly what most blues had before unsworth got going.

Royle is a legend and one of the best blues in history no doubt. This doesn't give him the capability in today's game to manage us.

He's yesterday's manager. He makes moyes and his techniques look cutting edge.

It would be a disaster going with royle. A romantic sentiment which makes no sense at all. Back to the 'he gets us' nonsense that makes us feel warm but ultimately never achieve anything of note.

Crazy.

;) agree 100% , and with all respects to Big Joe who was my hero as a lad in the pen

Mates it is risky I know but whichever way this turns , this season we are in the crap ?

I believe we need to hang in there , not panic bringing in a manager for the sakes of it , dont think that would change much , go for likes of Siemone , Silva , Tuchel , with Unsy caretaker the best he can with Big Joe until we have our Man ?

something tells me there is a big fish being reeled with a lot of red herrings as the smoke screen ?

TBH though mate, depending on who you listen too and believe, there is no clear vision or direction from the people "leading" this... Kenwright wants Unsworth, Moshiri wants a name/young up and coming European manager, Steve Walsh wants bloody Allardyce.

I do genuinely have questions about Walsh and what he is doing and WHY he hasn't been more closely looked at due to this summer and what he is meant to do at the club, if he is meant to set up a long term vision he should have a set of mangers worldwide that match that philosophy, not trying to get Sam in as Jobs for the boys.

I genuinely badly wanted this to be different... wanted this to be an exciting search and something to look forward to as a change with all the other things going on...

The reality, this is worse then it has been before when trying to get someone in.
 
...i’d prefer somebody young and ambitious with a record of building a good side from scratch. Haven’t got a scooby doo who that is.

Thing is Eggs, I dont think the club is looking at it like that. When Walsh was brought in he done an interview about a long term vision which basically didn't mean what manager was in charge it was there for people to come in and match up against.

Has this even happened?

The club should be saying - we want X, Y and Z from the team and getting the manager that fits, be it passing football, attacking, pragmatic, plays youth, builds teams etc etc etc and drawing up a shortlist.

I dont think we have had anyone linked who follows the same train of thought - they dont all like to play passing footy, attacking etc... its a complete mishmash of managers and styles.

There is no clear direction what the club want... and thats the more worrying thing for me right now.
 

Lucien Favre. There's a name. 3rd last season with nice. Got borussia monchengladbach in champions league. Struggling a bit this season, possibly curse of Europa league but prior to this quite good with unfashionable teams. Brings through youth reus, ter stegen, kramer, xhaka at borussia.
