Ranieri would be a great appointment in my opinion

Mr Nice but with tactics makes a lot of sense for a season or two. I think the players would like him. He isn't great but seems a natural fit to what we have today. It won't be a revolution but he probably will get the job done.

The way he got bombed out of Leicester was a bit of a disgrace. He likes the beautiful game and you don’t turn your nose up at managers who have won the PL in the last few years. It would be great if he also brings in someone to groom to replace him.

I could live with that.

Rodgers may have one eye on the situation at Old Trafford and fancy his chances there ...... I wouldn't be disappointed with Ranieri plus younger assistant

Faria is another novice. No thanks.

Novice? You obviously haven't done your homework. Terry and Henry are the novices, Faria has played a major part in success of Mourinho. Whoever we bring in will be a risk but Faria would most certainly be on my shortlist.

Clubs managed: zero. He's a novice.

Yep that would be very good. That or Ranieri and Terry. Preferably the former option with Terry coming back to captain us to promotion.

He is, but there are novices and novices.  Terry and Faria are not comparable, for instance.  I'd take either above any of the dinosaurs who have managed multiple clubs.

That's the major plus with Terry, he can solve our main weakness on the field too.

I appreciate that and wouldn't want either, as while Faria has a lot of experience as a coat, he's never had the pressure or been the number 1 decision maker. It's too big a job for a novice.

Terry, Henry, Faria, Arteta, no thank you.

If it were a novice or Moyes, I'd go novice.

I agree.  plus what sort of coat? kagool? leather jacket?

If we are looking for an experienced coat is Kenny Jackett available?
