(Simple majority for purely internal affairs, and a two thirds majority for more complex issues). I wouldn't be surprised if that's not a million miles away from what's currently happening. Lots of posters on here have mentioned 'player power' recently. I sometimes wonder how much input and influence the likes of Vardy, Wes, Kasper and the old guard 'band of brothers' actually have in Shakey's overall decision making?

volpeazzurro Posted 1 October 2017 Share Posted 1 October 2017 At least 5 of them are unrealistic. Don't want Pearson back. Think you need to go back to the drawing board for candidates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

winteriscoming Posted 1 October 2017 Share Posted 1 October 2017 Realistically out of that list only Pearson would come. I would love ancilotti or tuchel but there's no chance. I would go with Paulo bento Markus weinzeirl Or if you want prem experience who hasn't been mentioned I thought Claude puel or sanchez who was at Watford. although sanchez maybe unlikely as he's at espanyol.

Tielemans63 Posted 1 October 2017 Share Posted 1 October 2017 He's a bit of a cock at times but Sean Dyche would do a very good job here I'm sure. I think he'd take the job too if he was offered it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's BS imo, he knows he just has to bide his time and when the opportunity arises he's on that list of candidates, my opinion though is I'd like to move on. Benitez would be ideal.

Benitez would be ideal. He went down with Newcastle. No, he wasn't to blame, but his relegation-dodging pedigree isn't too reassuring. You never know who's going to click. Even if, say, Ancelotti wanted to come, it could go wrong. He's not managed anything other than a top end club in two decades and we've come a cropper before bringing in high calibre bosses who aren't right for our predicament. Who'd have thought Pearson would be a better fit than Sousa and Eriksson? A lot of the names could work out - but it's a huge risk. Wagner finished 19th in his first season so he's no more of an impact boss than Pearson. Tuchel doesn't know this league. Howe may well be a one-club man. I think we'll hold on for a little longer to give CS the chance to find the answers, and see how tidy a job Pearson is doing in Belgium in the meantime. If the board look elsewhere, it could well be for someone with 'survival pedigree', which isn't necessarily as mouth-watering prospect as the names in the poll. I don't think Pearson has to be seen as a step backwards. It wasn't a step backwards in 2011. He's a team-builder, so a forward-thinking ex-boss is more likely to move us forwards than a conservative-minded new face. The problem with Pearson is that he needs to find his feet again for now, he's unlikely to reunite the old backroom team and may be a better option if it all goes wrong and we need to start a project from scratch a year from now, and have the patience to let it happen. In the short-term, we should look at how we can help Shakespeare, either from above (a football-minded DoF) or below (someone new in the coaching staff), before rushing to a decision. Remind him that he needs to come up with new answers and give him the chance and backing to do it. After all, the board did just sell his star midfielder and balls up the replacement. And as awful as we look, a point away is a decent point. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nick Posted 2 October 2017 Share Posted 2 October 2017 It's a bit like people don't remember that more of the same doesn't really work? For me, new blood - Wagner would get my vote on a 2 year contract. Failing that CA will be the stand in come Christmas. Some of these players need a manager to help them step up and be motivated...

I could see why Pearson would be good for stability and how the club is run generally but otherwise a definate NO from me. We need a fresh outlook and direction Wagner or Howe, or O’Neill short term followed by a progressive manager like Howe (or another up and coming Manager?)

Cadno'r Cymoedd Posted 2 October 2017 Share Posted 2 October 2017 Get Ancelotti in whatever the the cost. Stong willed, tactically astute and will get the best out of who we have.

Gerard Posted 2 October 2017 Share Posted 2 October 2017 13 hours ago, Bunyip said: Why on earth would Benitez want to leave Newcastle to come here? They are much better than us at the moment and are a much bigger club with massive potential. We are none of those things at the moment. 20 years a go they were a bigger club than us but in modern football they just aren't. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
