The next manager appointment (new thread)

[bluestevon]

We know that would never happen.

I just think Low is an interesting one.

Nah I'd always swerve career international managers mate, especially ones who come from one of the top tier nations in terms of talent they have and structure in place.

We either go for a progressive veteran manager like Sarri, one with the gravitas to out a completely new system into place so it sticks and starts to lift the expectations and standards we require.

Or we go for a young coach who either had a bad experience at a club but who otherwise was greatly rated (Potter, Glasner) or we go with someone on the rise who hasn't hit the top yet (Still, Corderon).

Ideal situation we do both go for the first, then after 3-4 years we move to the second option.

I'd be all over Will Still...said this for a while

He's gamble but someone I'd happily gamble on.

Graham Potter is nearly 50 - hardly a young coach!

People get fooled by his wig and botox.

I want a tactician one.
No more hard-working with no football-brain.

So linked with Mourinho today. Seems a week doesn't go by without us being linked to a new manager. Either the press know we will change boss under the new owners and are just throwing darts in the hope they hit the bull or they are just making it up as filler.

Daft as it is most of the ones linked don't inspire me and I'd rather stick with Dyche. Shows how bad it is.

Completely ignore anybody getting linked in the media mate, the names will be the ones they figure will generate the most clicks on the articles.

Mourinho, Southgate, expect a Klopp one at some point etc.

Sarri is likely the only kink which may have merit to it, but as it came from Italy you can probably assumer the same thing is happening there, link a manager whose well known in Italy to drive the clicks.

Very strange that he's still out of a job after quitting Reims

Errrm, he left Reims to manage Lens mate.

Ha ha. Thought he was out of work! Need to update my knowledge of Ligue 1

Has he ever actually done his Pro License yet? he wouldn't be able to manage in the PL till it's finished anyway I don't think. I know it was one of the reasons he has never been linked with anything more than Championship jobs.

Yeah, 6th in the table, unbeaten, best defensive record in the league, not scoring many though

Wasn't he heavily linked with the Sunderland job ?

Saw stuff that he started the course in mar 23' mate but not seen that he's qualified yet.

Think after he stated the UEFA Pro license course they stopped finding Reims over match though. Not seen anything about lens getting fined either.

Was getting g linked with west ham this summer before joining lens but not sure if that's just lazy journos or if it means he got the license.

Looks to have that x factor as a manager though, and could be one who really kicks on.

Yup and to a lesser extent the west ham one too mate, that may be as he's a hammers fan though so an easy link.
