I'm from Sandefjord, Norway and I would be quite happy with Cifuentes taking over as the new manager. He took over as a manager in 2018 and was in charge until 2021. The reason they let him go was due to financial restraints, not results. Sandefjord is not one of the richest clubs in Norway and are operating on minimum resources. The history prior to Cifuentes is basically promotions then directly relegation. When he took over he changed the way of playing, from hoof ball to more possession type of play. The first season they stunned some of the bigger teams by playing possession style not allowing the opponents to see much of the ball. This was quite funny as the "so called experts" couldn't understand why one of the less glamour sides could get away with playing this type of football. I would say that he transformed the club from being your typical "Burnley side" into a team who played good football and was fun to watch. His time at the club laid the foundation for a change in the way they played and the club ha kicked off from that time. Presently, they are in fifth place in the Norwegian top division. Regarding new managers, I was hoping for a type like Rohl who has done a good job with limited resources at Wednesday. But you might also argue that Cifuentes has done a good job at QPR? Personally, I'm happy that we're not getting a type like Dyche. He might get results but it's not gonna be pretty to watch. What we need now is a complete rebuild. Getting rid of a big amount of deadwood and start youngsters a chance. Hopefully, Cifuentes will do this. If he gets the job, I hope we the fans will give him time to build a side. Getting promoted and endure the type of season we had last is nothing I want to witness anytime soon again. Having been a Leicester fan for over 50 years I have to say that last season I chose not to see the matches at time. It was too depressing to watch.
