The big difference I've noticed this season is the quality of coaching and tactics in the PL. It's gone up a level, especially when you think a club like Palace has Glasner as their manager.
That's why RVN has struggled, he doesn't have the nous and experience at this level (yet).
I don't think it's a coincidence that Enzo and Hurzeler have arguably been the poorest performing managers outside of the bottom 3 based on the investments their clubs made as it's their first seasons as this level as well (Slot is the exception I know). McKenna has been found wanting tactically as well, his set up for the Championship just hasn't worked for the PL.
It seems either extensive European experience, if not PL experience, is key now to thrive in this league.
That makes me a bit concerned about going for someone less proven (it's why I'm open to Dyche although his lack of progressing young players is worrying but there are some positives like Branthwaite, McNeil and Tarkowski) but guess that's an issue for if we get promoted.
Chat GPT suggested Carsley initially but he seems to have ruled himself out. I asked for some other options based on our current season, and it automatically focused on managers to develop young players - Will Still, Carlos Cuesta, Davide Ancelotti, Rene Maric and Eric Ramsay were some of the names.
Don't know much about Maric or Ramsay, except know the latter has been linked with other roles.
