Next manager?

(1/643) > >>

Ad@m:
Whilst I know he won't get potted for losing a league cup game, I'm all for binning Bruce now.  Have been for a good while as it's been obvious we've been treading water at best.

But who do we think should come in?

Perennial favourite Bielsa is off the market but that's the kind of character I'd like to see. Someone with a clear style of play which is high tempo and enjoyable to watch.

I also want someone with a degree of arrogance (not to Tim Sherwood levels mind) who'll actually approach games in this division on the basis we're better than all the other teams, with a better squad, and should therefore go to win and win handsomely.

So does anyone have any idea (in case the new owners don't) of who might be out there that fits the bill?

OzVilla:
For those who wanted Bruce binned straight after the play off defeat, the reality is we'd have a Mick McCarthy type manager in now due to the financial constraints we were operating under at that time.

At least now we'll be in a position to attract genuinely strong applications as the new money has arrived and the squad is so strong.  I really dont know much about the overseas managerial market so my gettable choice would be Brendan Rodgers.

Dave P:
For the record, I’m still ‘Bruce In’ for now. However I’d be amazed if he was still here at xmas. But who could replace him is not an easy decision.

Ambitious - Rodgers
Obvious - Smith
Media Favourite - Henry
Left field - Lennon / Terry
Heart instead of head - Mellberg / Laursen
Not with a barge pole - Allerdyce / McCarthy / Moyes.

frank black:
Rafa, the gaffer

ozzjim:
Rafa would be a hell of a coup but I can't see him coming.

Henry scares me, and could go either way.

Smith is my preferred choice.

Rodgers would be a brilliant fit if we could tempt him.
