Next Manager Speculation/Hopes

[Drummond]

I'm not fussed about his interview style, in fact I quite like it.  But otherwise I pretty much agree with all that TV.

I wouldn't have a problem with it if it came after us playing really well and getting great results. Because then he'd have earned the right to be dismissive of stupid questions. The issue he has is that the questions are bound to come because, well, we're shit.

A big week for Steven Gerrard, given we are just two points out of the bottom three but a win could take us seven places of the table. Lose tonight and I guess we look on the gloomy side. Hope for win though and something positive. Not as if Purslow will bin his bestie.

Very true.  I guess it's just not the thing I'm personally stringing him up for - it just doesn't bother me.  I'm sacking him because, as you so concisely put it, we're shit.

[Percy McCarthy]

That's unfair. I hate Rangers more than him, with Brazillian Villain and Percy in the Champions League spots

Now that's a kick in the bollocks.

We should be getting five spots soon based on our co-efficient.

If we want to continue with the young English theme, maybe QPRs manager is worth a punt?

Edit: wrong thread.

[PaulWinch again]

If Pochettino is even remotely an option, get it done. I’ve lost patience now, because there’s clearly no coherent way forward.

[eamonn]

Why does everyone say Pochettino when Tuchel is probably more gettable and maybe even better?

[Risso]

Pochettino and Tuchel. If Gerrard is potted, I think fans will be very, very disappointed. Thse two aren't coming anywhere near VP.

I'd be delighted with either, and think that Risso is very wrong. 🙂

[cdbearsfan]

Although didn't Tuchel play five at the back? 🤔

Don't think Tuchel is more gettable.

His stock is very high from winning CL and also getting PSG to the final in consecutive seasons.

Poch gave the impression in constant interviews he hated every second of managing PSG so I think he's more likely to take over club below elite and try to build them up like he did with Spurs.

[PaulTheVillan]

I just cannot see Poch or Tuchel being interested.

Prove me wrong guys

[sid1964]

If the owners are tightening their belts and are therefore not going to throw a £100 million at the club each season then I cannot see the likes of Poch or Tuchel being interested in taking the job

Playing 5 at the back as that is your philosophy and has brought success compared to playing 5 at the back to try something different as an act of desperation are two different things.
