fuchsntf Posted 22 January 2017 Posted 22 January 2017 The poor guy has been standing outside for 7 months.. Its time to bring in Claudio Ranieri....

A positive offensive brand of football, I rather a long term progressive agenda. Personally. Rodgers is still relatively young. He plays attractively and progressively. He neglects the defensive part a bit but he has enough tactical acumen to take us to top half finishes.

Leicesterpool Posted 22 January 2017 Posted 22 January 2017 My personal candidates would be Martin O'Neill, Rafa Benitez, Gary Rowett, Roberto Mancini and Jurgen Klinsmann. I think we could lure a few big names over now, the stakes have been raised. Rich owners and champions league football. Bentiez and MON would be difficult one to crack though both currently in work and seem comfortable with there jobs, would take a huge offer to temp them away. Rowett a young english manager I think with a lot of potential and yes a gamble but I think he's worth a shot, Mancini ex player for us and premier league winner with Man City could see him being interested. Klinsmann class coach I think seems quite eager to work in the premier league I believe and deserves a chance somewhere and why not here?
limeydale Posted 22 January 2017 Posted 22 January 2017 Claudio ain't going nowhere. But just to stir a bees nest and maybe expand your minds I'll throw in Pia Sundhage https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pia_Sundhage Chan Yuen-ting https://www.theguardian.com/football/blog/2016/jun/14/chan-yuen-ting-female-football-coach-hong-kong-eastern Fire away.

I think O'Neill would be the perfect choice to the end of the season if we're in trouble come March, temporary arrangement till the end of the season and then have another look. Otherwise: David Wagner, Rafa Benitez, Gary Rowett, Eddie Howe, Roberto Mancini, Julian Nagelsmann are all good shouts

He ultimately failed at Liverpool because they got top 4 aspirations. We don't. Success for us is finishing in the top half and winning a cup. Rodgers is not beneath us.

No I just personally think he's like the David Brent of football managers.

Also did a shocking job in the Championship with two pretty well setup teams in Reading and Watford, he seems to do better when he comes into a decent side, we're not that at the moment.
Leicesterpool Posted 22 January 2017 Posted 22 January 2017 My only problem with Mancini he's great coach but the only thing is I think he has a problem with handling players with big ego's, if you look back at his dealings with both Tevez and balotelli. I don't think he had have that problem here at first as I don't think there's any players like that, but he does like to spent money and bring in big name players and some will come in with big egos.

At a push, Hiddink could do a steady short term job and Rowett clearly has a fantastic future ahead but it's a steep learning curve. Looking outside of England, Galtier does alright at St Etienne year after year, Kovac is doing well at Frankfurt, Di Francesco has worked wonders at Sassuolo. However IF we were to say goodbye to Claudio, the target I'd be properly looking at is Brendan Rodgers and, although Celtic is a more than steady job, to be quite honest I think he'd switch with the right offer. The most gutting thing is that this is even a conversation. We've regressed so much. Ooh, Galtier - the sexy mofo: At least we'd win the "Best Dressed Football Manager of the Year" award on a regular basis.

To be fair he took over a Liverpool side that was decimated by first Roy Hodgson and then Kenny Dalglish. They were a poor side but had some decent players. He turned them into a sensational attacking unit with Suarez, Sterling and Sturridge. Granted Rodgers still has question marks of his ability to build a good defence. But of all the managers being put forward I'd prefer him the most.
matty98 Posted 22 January 2017 Posted 22 January 2017 Dyche would be a good appointment, similar to Pearson but without the baggage.

Consistently overachieved with Villareal and they were pretty solid defensively, currently jobless too.

He's the kind of guy Southampton would appoint and then do well and then get taken by a bigger club. Marcelino's did fantastic with Villarreal.

Their manager is heavily linked with the Arsenal job. My post has little to do with ignorance but realism. You seem to typify the sheep of the world. You read a few articles, even gave me some links where this lad who has been a manager since Feb last year and has been nicknamed mini Mourinho (PMSL) and we are all meant to believe it. You see it almost daily dont you? Some Argentinian kid scores a few goals in a youth set up at Boca and he is the new Maradona. Some kid in Milan heads the tackles charts in Serie D and he is the next Maldini!! Its a bit of a joke. This bloke you are talking about has been there for 5 mins and of course because he has started very well in the embryonic part of his managerial career we should jump at the chance of appointing him. Let him do it for a few seasons before we consider people like this.
STUHILL Posted 22 January 2017 Posted 22 January 2017 Mancini only one I like sound of out of the ones mentioned but not sure he would be up for a relegation fight! I honestly thought we would see a reaction today. Seems like the player's never bought into Claudio's system. Even so, the lack of effort and desire was shocking. All the fight has gone, and our team is simply not talented enough to perform well without that fight. I still think Claudio should be given this window to sign 3-4 players and then be given some more games. We are too far into the window to sack Claudio, find and appoint a new manager and then him to assess the squad and target certain players and us to get the deals through. Also, I still can't believe that one of our most popular manager's ever, could have lost the dressing room. I just think the players are not even playing for themselves right now. It really is a shambles. They should be running and working their bollocks off each week, no matter what formation or selection, just to restore some pride! We may still lose, but at least we could see signs that they actually care and give us something to get behind. The solution may be to go back to a 4-4-2 or 4-4-1-1 as Claudio said, and then sign at least 3 players in this window and just try to play with some energy and pride again. Results will come if we can work harder. We may only just stay up, but at least we will stay up. At the moment, there is no quality but more importantly, no fight whatsoever! I want to see fringe players in the FA Cup on friday, such as Chilwell, James, Kaputska, Ulloa, Benny etc... Fed up of the starting 11 and the crap we are being served up.

Let him do it for a few seasons before we consider people like this. Or perhaps this Nagelsmann really is the real deal. When he took over at Hoffenheim they were 7 points off safety in February 16 he then led them to survival and is currently on a 17 game unbeaten run in the league I think it's safe to say that he's got quite a bit about him. If he's going to be doing that for a few seasons then he's not going to be coming here. He's already attracting the attentions of the biggest clubs in the world and rightly so.
Dan Posted 23 January 2017 Posted 23 January 2017 If we did get rid of him, we cannot take his replacement lightly. By lightly, I mean get in someone like Pardew, a tried, tested and proven mediocre (at best) manager. I want a vision here, someone who looks like they can get the best out of sides and continuously build something, a proper coach who can improve a player significantly. If we sacked him and brought in Pardew, Hodgson etc... I'd be livid, as much as my faith in the bloke's gone there's no way they represent an upgrade significant enough to get rid of him. Imagine being the club who sacked their league winning manager for Alan Pardew, ****ing hell. It has to be worth it and whilst still in the Champions League, it can be.

Someone with a bit about him that has a good way of playing and the motivational and tactical prowess to be able to back it up.
