Next Manager Speculation and wishful thinking thread

[Beard82]

Some dude on twitter said that Erik ten Hag has gone from 100/1 to 16/1

Now that would be interesting

It would be amazing if we could appoint someone like Spurs did with Conte.  Someone that makes people think, wow there not fucking around.

I was best mates with a Spurs fan for years during the BFR, Sir Brian era - and in my head they are still comparable teams.

If not Favre (and I hope it is), we're going to have to pinch somebody from another club. Pochettino doesn't look happy at PSG (like I'd know), perhaps Purslow could smarm him in?

I am aware that there is zero chance of this happening.

Could do worse then Emery considering he was about to jack in CL club for one at bottom of this league before changing his mind right at the last minute so he is open to offers and don't think he's signed a new deal there since.

Would actually make sense as we want to be in europa league sooner or later and he's a master at winning that competition, think he's won it 4 times in last 8 years or something daft and also got Arsenal to the final.

Dont think that's a bad shout

I would rather have Dean Smith than any of the top 8 in the poll on here, or on Sky Bet.

I think we’ve really fucked this up.

Is all very well saying “Smith out” but surely you have to know who you can get instead, and be pretty confident they’re better? I think we’ve been very impatient with a good coach and a very decent man, who has a pretty bad run with injuries in our bad spell.

I have to ask this. How do you know we haven’t got someone lined up that matches your expectations? Your disappointment stems from reading a load of tabloid and/or Twitter clickbait

You know precisely fuck all about where my disappointment stems from so please cut out the patronising bullshit.

I think the sacking of Dean was harsh and premature, but you’re right, I might well be delighted with a new appointment. My point was you can’t really be “Smith (or any manager) out” without knowing who instead

Emry, Ten Haag... Both fit the bill for ambitious.

It won’t be the Ajax dude. He’ll stay there until the summer then join Man U.

or we'll appoint him and pip donny from manyoo.

Nah he's not glam enough for the United board.

Yeah, also pretty certain he's not going to turn down the chance to manage Marvolous Nekamba.

If you like stats, look at the German 2nd division points totals from 1st to 10th and rejoice in the Tuetonic efficiency.

That's wonderful. They should dock Hansa 2pts for inefficiency.

[clash city rocker]

I just hope to goodness that they have done their homework prior to the departure of Dean. As astute businessmen I would assume they have done their homework and come up with a manager that can take us forward. Oh and one last thing to the players.....Take a fuckin look at yourselves in the mirror.

Erik Ten Hag applies his tactics with a flexible formation in the form of 4-3-3 and 4-3-2-1, with three attacking midfielders who join one attacker at the higher position and three defensive midfield who forms tandem with four defenders.

De Ligt and Konsa as center half - sorted.

Phew, thats a relief I was worried for a while there

It's driving me mad seeing them post on social media about their affinity for Dean.

You could've just defended for 15 minutes against Wolves three weeks ago and none of this happens. Greasy Joe can fuck off, too, calling dean the goat, yet fawning over pep like a desperate stripper.

Joe aside, I think most of those that have posted their comments like Mings, Targett and McGinn have their ceilings too - and there probably at them. 

I don't think its that they didn't try - just that too much changed and they weren't able to adjust quickly enough

Do you really think we should sign someone with the initials DVB?

[PeterWithe]

I think I asked this the other day but, why couldn’t we get TenHaag if we wanted him?

He’s not done enough to get one of the really big jobs, none of them are available anyway and we can pay him a lot more and give him a bigger budget than he’s got, albeit probably as a stepping stone to one of the huge European jobs It’s not like Ajax keep hold of people they want to is it? their turnover rate is huge.

And he plays 4-3-3 which will fit Deans players.
