Manager suggestions - Now with added poll

Jokanovic is still the only credible name standing out to me

Brendan Rodgers? No chance

Fear it would just be too big a challenge for Smith

What constitutes a credible name?  Before answering bear in mind that Wolves have a guy who's 2 previous clubs were Valencia and Porto.

Jaap Stam seems to be doing o.k at this level. Would imagine we'd be enquiring about his contract situation as/when.

Exactly. It's settling for managers that we've thought would "do a job" that is largely responsible for our downfall.

Be ambitious. Be bold. Be-elsa.

Who ever it is has to deal with the albatross in the room called John Terry. I cant help but feel he's done us more harm than good - and I thought that before a ball was even kicked.

I can see him being another Micah Richards. He'll be despised by our fans in a few weeks and will create all kinds of problems in the dressing room

[ciggiesnbeer]

Agreed. "Championship experience" clearly counts for nothing as we have proven. I would happily take a manager who has never played or managed in the UK/Ireland before. In fact I would prefer it.

[Matt Collins]

But I worry that we're now very unattractive - we can't really but anyone else and we probably need to sell someone good next year unless we get promoted

Wolves are attractive because they're buying excellent players. We're not

Point taken that there probably are some imaginative candidates out there that haven't been mentioned

[curiousorange]

I get the feeling that whoever we get in, it'll disappoint ninety-nine percent of the fans.

Claude Puel?  Did OK with Southampton last year & singing on.  He'd be no Remi Garde.

Despisedin a few weeks? How about from when he was signed.

The problems we now have were here last season. Nothing to do with Terry although his influence so far seems to be nada

I liked that manager that got Watford promoted and midtable in the Prem the year we went down, very harshly sacked at the end of that season. Sanchez Flores I think he was called. He's at Espanyol now.

Yep good shout but he'd be mental to leave Espanyol to come here and he's only a year into the job (finished 8th last season).

His signing has resulted in chesters loss of confidence/form. Defensively we looked ok last year now we've conceded 6 in 3. Looks like a new problem to me

As we should be. Doing a very good job. We clearly need someone much more technically and tactically gifted than Bruce. I fear we would end up with Moyes or Terry. The latter would be a huge gamble but would probably do very well as he would surround himself with good coaches I reckon, the former would be an utter disaster.
