Yes Rudi Garcia.

Hes had some dreadful runs in the past...seemed to me like a huge punt for Roma when they got him and he was quick out the blocks but some dramatic fall aways and losses...

I dont think hes at the level we would need...really if Silva cant turn things around its got to be a serial winner. Pointless going for another up and comer if were going to ditch one for another.

Im just not sure we can attract a proven serial winner.

For all his trophies Gallardo would be as much as a risk as Garcia, IMO.

Well, he won 10 in a row and didn't win the league, finishing second two times in a row behind juventus with gervinho and de Rossi as best players is not failure, his spell at lille was great..
 
Just hire Alan Stubbs then...

Didnt put him on the list cos it was only when somebody on here mentioned him, like most names I looked into him and he seems a good sort.

He is, french champion and cup winner with lille, two runners up with roma, always qualified for champions league, qualified from group stage.. His spell with marseille was marked by fights with board who bought [Poor language removed] players like radonjić and ćaleta but promised him others. People are obssesing with young prodigys, he's 55 and came trough from scouting and being physio, then assistant manager.. He didn't bluff his way to Everton manager (if it happens) like marco
 
I thought Silva was an attacking manager but he appears to have lost all confidence and reverted to boring tactics, stale formation and selection. Like our last three managers really.
 
For me, the future of managers is young expansive attacking managers.

Obviously at 49, he's not necessarily young, but his approach at RB Salzburg turned heads, he then moved onto Young Boys, in a league monopolised by Basel for the last 20 years, and he made them champions for the first time in 30 years.

He went to Frankfurt, and he signed young, attacking flair-like players, and he's basically making Eintracht a force again. Beat Bayern and won the cup, their first trophy for 30 years and he's developed some really quite good attacking players. Haller, Jovic etc... that's what we need. A manager who isn't afraid to go at big teams, is attacking orientated and Eintracht play some really nice stuff.

The likes of him, Nagelsmann at Leipzig etc are the people we should be going for.
Sounds interesting. For me the German model seems to be most transferable to the EPL style. The Portugese and Spanish seems old hat now.

Yeah it's very weird they also seem to have repeated the exact pattern decent to ok firest season then picking same players constantly and not changing. Looking completely hopeless by the end.

Exactly.

You'd think if we're losing but being gung-ho and scoring goals, you can squarely blame that.

But we aren't.

I like Adolf Huttler, he goes by Adi for obvious reasons, he is a good shout.. He did not win that cup, it was kovac
