Rumour has it Spurs are back in talks with Fonseca so that looks unlikely.

Favre would be my second choice.

Whisper it quietly but I actually think Terry would do a good job too, but I don't want him as our manager.

Seems a bit premature to have this thread but whoever the answer to this is will be telling, there shouldn't be a huge aount of managers who are out of our reach as we can offer a big budget in the next 2 windows, have a good, and young, squad and we are very ambitious. If we gamble that on someone like Lampard or Gerrard then it's a huge risk, if we play it safe with someone like Howe then it will be the time to question that ambition. However if we go big and get in someone who, from the outside, looks to obig for where we are then it's the sign that we are serious about becoming a major player at the top of the league.

I have no idea which way things are going to go right now but I do think this thread will probably become more important in the next week or so.

Fuck that. I'd rather bring Steve Bruce back.

There is no question he is close to the sack. Who do you fancy? For me there is no british managers id take other than rodgers and we cant get him for obvious reasons. I mean i dont think potter is the answer either and i doubt he will come.

So that leaves looking at a international managed whoch i would be happy with.

You represent a vocal, poisonous minority, like the people getting headlines for saying covid’s a hoax. I’ll bet the Holte won’t want Smith out. It’s losing run of four, amid three years of remits being continually met. You continue to moan loudly, your right - the owners won’t be listening.

We will be looking for a new coach the same time as Newcastle and Tottenham. That's unfortunate. Conte and Ten Hag will have likes of Man United on their radar.

If you want a big name manager how about seeing who is doing well in the Sri Lankan premier league ?

Alternatively we could go for Ioan Llywelyn, manager of Llanfair­pwllgwyngyll­gogery­chwyrn­drobwll­llan­tysilio­gogo­goch.

Leaving aside the pretty, uh, 'robust' accusation of Demitri being "poisonous", there isn't a lack of evidence for the team being well beaten four times in a row.

Shakey as caretaker until the end of the season and then throw mega millions at Pep.

I want Dean to stay but if he does go, then Potter is the standout candidate for me. Not sure we'd get him mid-season, mind.
