John Terry, player manager.
No thanks

I'd rather keep Bruce. And I really don't like Bruce.

Haven't noticed Olof mentioned for a while? Cons?

the same as recruiting that Nyland fella I suppose. Scandi glory isn't really a ringing endorsement.

I don't know who the main target would be, but I don't mind having Fat Sam as plan B for one season only.

detestable twat but I sort of agree - give him a short term gig to try and re-stabilize; at the very least I think he'd get us into the play-offs and I have no faith whatsoever that that will happen if Bruce stays on much longer.

Jesus, if we're talking about Sam Allardyce we're truly in the doldrums.

The best available seems to be Conte, so go for him. If Leeds can get Bielsa there's no reason why we shouldn't be ambutious.

so exactly the same thing that people said about Bruce apart from the detestable bit

this short term quick fix thinking is why we are where we are

I'd like Gary Monk. Maybe because there's nun other available, but the it could be a bad habit.

yep, as they say, those who refuse to learn from their mistakes are bound to repeat them.

the point about Sam was that it would be a deliberate short term deal, with no permanent position offered which would give time to fully appraise what was needed long term. I can't stand the bloke personally, but he's a better manager than Bruce.

I think Sam was pissed off he was used as a stop gap for Everton & Palace.  I think he may want a longer contract.  I think he'd probably do a decent job but I'd really much prefer us to go in a different direction now.

Even if he's waiting a month or two for the Inter Milan job to become available?
